encashing
Turning into money
Encashing is converting a financial instrument into cash—cashing a check, redeeming a bond, or withdrawing funds.
The term is more common in British and Indian English than American: She went to the bank to encash her traveler's cheques.
The prefix adds formality without changing the meaning of cashing.
