Many companies have adopted this process to handle checks sent to them for payments in the mail or at a drop box location. The biller converts your check to an electronic entry which is charged to your checking account just as the paper check would have been charged to your account. The biller creates a copy of your check and destroys the original to prevent double posting. Your cancelled check will not be returned to you in your statement. You may request a copy of your check from the biller for a period of up to two years.
A merchant may convert your check into an electronic entry at the point-of-purchase. The merchant scans the check you wrote for a purchase to capture the account information. You will be asked to sign a receipt that authorizes an electronic debit in the amount of your check. The merchant marks your check void and returns it to you, eliminating the risk of double posting. This transaction will appear on your account statement as an electronic debit and there will be no cancelled check returned to you.
