Copyright (c) 2011 Joe Maldonado If you order checks from the bank each time it may be surprising to you how much money you could save by ordering them through one of the online suppliers. Not only is this method more affordable, but you also get a much better selection this way. The one thing about getting your checks online is that you need to make sure that you always take the necessary security precautions. Anytime you are providing your bank information to someone else, you have to make sure that the information does not fall into the wrong hands. The first step that you should take is to find a trusted site to order your checks from. One way to do this is to run an online search and start comparing your options. Anytime you feel insecure about a company, just avoid making a purchase. You will also have to consider what type of designs you would like to get on your checks. You have a limitless amount of options online. Then you have to think about what type of checks you want. You could either get the basic wallet versions or the desk sets that give you duplicate copies of each check written. At some point in the ordering process you are going to need to enter in your bank information. You are going to be required to provide the information that is on your current checks in order to get new checks printed. In general, you will just need to provide the company you are ordering from with your account number and routing number along with whatever number you need your checks to start with. At the bottom of your check you will find the routing number first, followed by your account number. Security should be of no concern to you, as most of these sites take great measures to keep all of your information secure. Should you feel uneasy, all you have to do is check the security of the site on your own by checking to see if the site has a valid SSL certificate. Anytime you are about to enter in your financial or personal information, take a look at the bottom right corner of your browser and look for a little yellow padlock. If you see one there, the site has valid SSL certification. If this is the case, you do not have to worry about anything, because all of the information that you enter will get encrypted in a way that others will not be able to view it. Getting your checks on the internet is so much less of a hassle than getting them from the bank. In some cases it will take 7-14 business days to receive your order from the bank, but you will generally get them in just a few days when you order them online. Besides, it's always nice to get checks that aren't so plain. After you order checks online once, you will never want to do it any other way again!
