Quick and Easy Checks To Go For Hassle Free Check Payments

Jul 29, 2022 | Payments

Checks have declined in usage in the United States; however, many business owners and companies still prefer and accept only checks as their preferred mode of transaction. Paying rent or utility bills by checks can become expensive over time.

It is businesses and the government that write most paper checks, according to a report by Federal Reserve Payments Study (FRS 2018). Also, check payments had a relatively high average dollar value, around $300 compared to other payments.

To provide a better, faster, and more reliable check transaction for small businesses, Zil Money started an online cloud-based check printing platform to seamlessly create, print and send your checks to vendors and suppliers online. Over time more than 1 Million customers have used our check printing facility to print and mail checks, including small business owners, federal agencies and charitable organizations. We have successfully processed over $38.13 Billion in check-based transactions on our platform, and our valuable customer base keeps growing with time.

Who do Customers Pay Using Checks 

In a Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta survey, the top four categories for making check payments included financial, landlord or owner (rent), taxes and fees paid to the government, and tuition (schools, colleges, childcare).

Payments to financial services were the most common use of a paper check, with forty percent of checks written to pay a debt or make a financial transfer, pay utilities, and make charitable donations.

The study also reflected that more than 15 percent of all income payments are made with paper checks.

      Traditional Way of Making Check Payments

        The most common way to get your checks is ordering checks directly from your bank; however, it can be the most expensive route, with a single check leaf costing thirty cents and a box of 100 checks for around $30 on average.

        Also, stores like Costco, Walmart, and Sam’s Club offer cheaper checks online. The downside, however, is that it could take up to 7 to 15 business days to reach you on standard delivery. Shipping charges apply, and expedited delivery would cost you an additional dollar amount.

        Moreover, ordering designer checks with custom check designs could cost you more. Waiting for your checks to arrive can be a frustrating experience, especially when you need to settle payments with vendors or suppliers immediately. Sometimes this can lead to missed or late payments, which could harm your business reputation.

        As a business owner, you’re the one vendor, clients, and customers depend on to receive payments. You probably already know that writing and tracking each check takes a lot of time and effort. Why not go for software that can automate and streamline your check-based transaction online in a secure cloud-based check printing platform?
