How do I accept checks by phone? 

All businesses can accept checks by phone with CheckWriter Basic software. Check drafting is the most popular way to accept checks from patients, clients, policy holders and customers.

You can accept checks by phone from your via outbound or inbound call. All direct marketing, telemarketing, sales, collections, dating services, Multi Level Marketing, consumer credit counseling, insurance companies, and insurance agents, plus just about any other industry can accept checks by phone this way.  Unlike all ACH systems regulated by N.A.C.H.A. rules and guidelines, accepting checks by phone with CheckWriter Basic is not.

Take the customer's name and/or company name, and address that is printed on the check; ask for the check # (optional), the 9-digit bank routing number it looks like this

                             |:123456789|:

and the account number.  Make sure the customer agrees to the amount of the check, and you are done.

After you accept a check by phone from your customer, you use software like CheckWriter™ Basic to enter the information you gathered, then, create a draft of the check, with no signature required.

CheckWriter™ Basic then prints a bank draft which you can deposit into any bank the same day with no fees.  The draft will be treated just like a check you receive through the mail or over the counter.  Simply endorse the back, and make your deposit.
