Print and mail checks using multiple accounts

When you need to pay multiple vendors in a short amount of time, business checks can save you a lot of time. They are easy to use and can be printed on blank check stock which cuts costs and reduces risk of fraudulent activity.

Choose the Right Software

You’ll want to use check printing software that works with your accounting system. Xero and QuickBooks are among the most popular options, though there are several others available as well.

Customize the Design

You can customize your check design to create a more professional appearance. Select software allows you to add essential information such as your company name and bank account numbers. You can also use the company’s logo or signature image to ensure the checks are readable, legally compliant and aligned with your company’s image.

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is another feature that will make your check printing process easier and faster. This will help your checks to be read by your bank’s computer, resulting in less human intervention and a faster processing speed for your customers.

Secure Your Business with MICR Fonts

A magnetic ink character font (MICR) is an added safety measure that makes it difficult for a forger to alter or fake checks. It’s important to use a MICR font that’s compatible with your printer so that the information can be read properly by your bank’s computer.

Direct mail systems are a great way to send out checks because they can be tracked and recorded in the USPS system. This can be beneficial in the event of a dispute, as they can provide official records that prove delivery.
