  • it beats paper on cost—just 36 cents to process, vs. $15.21.
  • it beats paper on speed—a couple of hours from sending to acceptance, vs. days to mail, more days to open, more days in storage, more days to transcribe, and maybe months more to process.
  • it beats paper on accuracy—no need for transcription.
