Ways to Pay With Checks Online
Most online stores accept major debit and credit cards as payment, and many now accept other digital payment methods such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay, but there are also some that will let you pay by check. There are three ways you can do this:
Paper Check by Mail
In some cases, you may be able to place your order online and then mail a paper check to the company. Once your check has been received and processed, your purchase will be shipped to you.
Electronic Check (eCheck)
Some online stores will allow you to make payments directly from your checking account through an electronic fund transfer (EFT), either as an eCheck or bank transfer. Typically, you’ll have to enter your checking account number and your bank’s routing number at checkout rather than a credit or debit card number, or contact your bank to initiate a transfer.
eCheck via PayPal
You can pay by check online at any store that accepts PayPal using funds drawn directly from your checking account. For this method, you’ll need to link a PayPal account to your bank account:
- Create a free PayPal account online (or log-in if you already have a PayPal account)
- Click on “Link a bank or card”
- Enter your bank account information. You’ll need both your checking account number and bank routing number.
- Verify your checking account: PayPal makes two small deposits of less than $1 to your account. You’ll need to enter these amounts in order to verify your account before you can use PayPal to pay by check. The verification process typically takes around one to five business days.
Once you’ve verified your checking account, you can use PayPal to pay by check anywhere this payment method is accepted — our article has the list of clothing stores that accept PayPal.
