Personal & Business Checks
Order checks with your style
Pay, track and organize your finances with custom business checks.
Whether you're managing payroll or running reports on company expenses, business checks are a versatile tool for handling finances, taxes, invoices and everyday money management. Every VistaPrint check is Check 21 Compliant and accepted by U.S. banks and credit unions, so you can order with confidence that your checks will work exactly as they should. Beyond our SSL-encrypted checkout and optional FraudArmor™ protection, every check is printed with tamper-resistant ink that runs or smears if someone tries to alter your account information – giving you the confidence of knowing your checks are both secure – and uniquely yours.
Not sure which format fits how you work? Wallet checks are our standard, personal-style format, sized to fit a checkbook cover for everyday use. 3-to-a-page checks arrive as loose sheets, designed to sit in an office binder rather than a bound checkbook. These are a better fit if you're processing checks at a desk and want tear-away stubs for tracking expenses. Laser checks are also loose-sheet format, built specifically for printing directly from accounting software like QuickBooks Desktop, QuickBooks Online, Xero and NetSuite. And, if you need carbonless duplicate checks to keep a copy for your records, our 3-to-a-page checks are designed with that kind of expense tracking in mind.
Important ordering tip: Before you finalize your order, use the ‘review proof’ feature to double-check your MICR line. This is the string of numbers along the bottom of the check. The first set of 9 digits is your bank's routing number, and the number that follows is your account number; double-checking now prevents misprints and delays later. Our design tool also shows you a live preview so you can confirm logos, fonts and special characters appear correctly before you order, since certain special characters can affect how your information displays. Once your design is ready, we get to work – printing, packaging and shipping your checks. You can check our shipping calculator for a good idea of delivery times in your area, and start putting your checks to work in no time.
While you can't upload your own design for checks, you can change fonts, add icons or logos and personalize your checks with your contact and banking information. We offer a variety of templates with multiple styles and themes to choose from to get you started. Before you complete your order, you'll see a live preview so you can confirm everything – including special characters and logos – displays correctly. We also recommend double-checking the MICR line at the bottom of your check: the first 9 digits are your bank's routing number, followed by your account number. Confirming these in the preview helps prevent misprints on your final order.
Yes. Start by choosing your check type and design template, then personalize it with your banking and contact information. You'll be able to preview your design before checkout to confirm everything is accurate. Our Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption protects your information throughout the ordering process. If you notice incorrect information, a misprint or an issue with delivery after your order ships, contact our customer service team – they can help arrange a correction or reprint.
Yes, they are. They’re made using special tamper-resistant printing methods and an ink that runs or dissolves when people try to alter any information.
With express shipping, we can ship your checks in as few as 3 business days. Keep in mind that this does not include the time it takes to process, print and package your checks. Production time usually takes 2 business days.
To help reduce fraudulent orders, checks may only be shipped to a physical address – not PO boxes – and will only be shipped to the address that is presented on the Check itself.
Yes. When you're customizing your order, you can choose between single or duplicate check formats before selecting your quantity. Duplicate checks give you an automatic copy (carbon copy) of each check you write, making it easy to keep a record for expense tracking or bookkeeping – a good option if you don't want to rely on manual logging.
Our laser checks are compatible with most of today’s accounting software packages, like Quickbooks Desktop, Quickbooks Online, Microsoft Dynamics, Xero, Sage and NetSuite.
The option to upload photos or original designs isn't available with custom business checks.
FraudArmor™ is available as optional protection with any check purchase. You'll find it preselected at checkout, with the flexibility to opt out.
