Photo checks are bank checks that allow you to put an image on them. You might want a picture of your smiling face, or you can use a photo that expresses your identity. You can either order photo checks from a printer, or you can print them yourself. Find out how to get your own photo checks.
How to Get Photo Checks
There are 2 ways to get photo checks:
- Order them
- Print them yourself
Photo Checks With Your Face
Some people want to customize checks with a photo. If you’re in a sales profession, photo checks can help establish your brand so that others remember you.
You might think that the checks are more secure. Wouldn’t it be harder to write a check against your account if the thief looks nothing like you? With a small head shot next to your name and address, it would be harder to get away with at the checkout counter.
Just remember that somebody can get plain checks printed (that don’t have your photo) as long as they have your account information. Now, if you lose your book of photo checks, you are correct that it’ll be harder for a thief to use the checks. Then again, they may mail checks in and it won't matter anyway.
Expressive Photo Checks
Some people like photo checks because they’re fun. You can put a picture of your dog, your favorite sports activity, or a special place on your checks. The image can fill the entire background of your check.
Artists and creative types enjoy putting their creations on photo checks as well. It’s a way to share your work, and it may lead to new customers if somebody likes what they see on your check.
