Mailed Check

Checkbook offers the ability to send physical checks via mail, providing a reliable payment method for recipients who prefer or require paper checks. While digital payments offer speed and convenience, mailed checks remain a necessary option in various scenarios:

Recipient Preference: Some individuals or businesses may not have bank accounts suitable for electronic transfers or simply prefer receiving a physical check

Legal Requirements: Certain legal or regulatory situations necessitate payment via traditional paper check

Lack of Digital Access: Recipients without consistent Internet access or comfort with digital payment methods can still receive funds securely

Record-Keeping: Physical checks can serve as tangible proof of payment for both the sender and the receiver

Timing

Checkbook offers a range of mailing options for physical checks, catering to different delivery speed requirements and recipient locations. Requests submitted before the cutoff time will be processed and mailed the same business day.

Details

Checkbook uses high security check stock with security capabilities including blackouts, copy-resistant pantograph, coin reactive ink, watermark, micro printing, padlock security, and anti splice backing to minimize risk of fraud or tampering. Additionally, several customization options are available for our checks. These features allow you to present a more professional image and provide recipients with relevant details:

Return Address: Specify the return address that appears on the check and the mailing envelope

Signature: Add your signature(s) to the check via our dashboard or API

Remittance advice: Leverage the blank section above the check to add additional remittance information.

Attachments

PDF attachments can be included with Checkbook’s mailed checks, providing a way to include important supporting documentation with your payments. This feature can be useful for sending invoices, remittance advice, contracts, or other relevant documents directly to your recipients along with their check. These attachments are printed and included in the envelope with the corresponding check.
