Checkwriter

In U.S. law, in Article 3 of the Uniform Commercial Code, codified in most U.S. State statutes, a check is an order (as opposed to a promise) to pay a fixed amount of money, according to §3-104(a).

This is accomplished by the machine applying downward force on the check and leaving very small inked shreds in the paper.

Using a series of levers or buttons on the checkwriter's control panel, the operator enters the monetary amount of the check.

This brings the print-heads down upon a wide inked (usually multicolor) ribbon through which they print the selected amount on the check, with a prefix and suffix to prevent a fraudster from adding extra digits.

Financial institutions regularly use them to prepare cashier's checks, and they are also used by issuers of money orders such as the United States Postal Service.

Simple Checks also offers integration with software such as NetSuite and QuickBooks, enabling seamless financial workflows.

Additionally, the platform supports batch check import, making it suitable for handling high volumes of transactions efficiently.

The software prints a physical draft of a customer's checks that a business can then deposit into any U.S. bank the same day.
