How to Write a Check
Writing checks has become a lot less popular in recent years, as alternatives like credit and debit cards and mobile payment systems have become more readily available. Yet no matter how technologically savvy you are, you will inevitably still face situations in which you'll need to know how to write a check in order to pay for something. This step-by-step process will take you through writing a check and understanding everything that goes on behind the scenes with this payment method.
Even before you write anything on it, your blank checks already have a lot of vital information on them. Your name typically appears at the upper left, and each check is preprinted with a sequential number to allow for easier tracking. The name of your bank will appear somewhere on your check as well.
