8 Ways Checkeeper Saves Money Over Other Payment Methods
Small business owners have a lot of payment options available to them, but not all of them are budget-friendly. Online check printing is a more affordable alternative to traditional bank-ordered checks and many other common payment methods.
Eight ways Checkeeper online check printing can offer a more cost-effective payment method:
1. Free trial
A free trial is the least risky and least expensive way to sample a new service before committing. Checkeeper offers all new users full access to unlimited check printing for 14 days at no cost. Create a free account, and then sample all the benefits of check printing and mailing, check customizing, and automatic check registry reporting before adopting Checkeeper on a simple, flat-fee, monthly basis.
2. No hidden fees or charges
While many online payment options are available to small business owners, many come with hidden fees, transaction charges, and service fees that dilute the savings. Checkeeper is upfront with its charges, which don’t change, regardless of how many checks are printed each month, how many checking accounts are linked, or how many different check templates are saved. There are no tiers for high usage or for the number of authorized users assigned to an account, so account holders have all the flexibility of check customizing they need without worrying about going over-budget.
3. Low-cost priority mailing options
Checkeeper offers four priority mailing options to satisfy varying needs for speed and tracking. Checks ordered for printing and mailing before 4 pm EST are placed in the mail by the end of the business day. Routine bill payments can typically be sent according to standard First-Class USPS, while large or time-sensitive payments can be sent at a faster speed with an accompanying tracking option. Checkeeper also offers batch printing and mailing for payroll checks, which enables users to have an entire batch of payroll checks printed for them on demand and then have them delivered back to the office the next day via Next-Day Air. It costs little more than the price of an envelope and stamp to have a check printed and mailed by Checkeeper, and all supplies are provided.
4. No extra charge for additional users
Check-printing software that charges based on usage tiers or number of users per account can become excessively costly when the business starts to expand. Checkeeper is cloud-based and online, so multiple users can access the account simultaneously, and account holders can authorize additional users to access the Checkeeper account to issue payments or update the records without incurring additional fees. Limit user permissions to only designated features needed, and change or revoke them at any time.
5. Multiple business management from a single account
Business owners who run more than one business, and bookkeepers who manage many clients at once, all appreciate the consolidated account access Checkeeper offers to streamline and simplify the payment process. Add several businesses to a single account dashboard, and toggle back and forth between the businesses when you need to issue a lot of payments at once. Each added business incurs its own monthly subscription cost and comes with its own: online check registry, saved integrations, user permission settings, mailing credits, saved check templates, and uploaded logos, images, and signatures.
6. Custom quotes for high-volume check orders
Business owners who have a one-time or high-volume check order to send out find Checkeeper to be the go-to solution. Checkeeper prints and mails thousands of checks for high-volume payment needs, such as customer refunds, rebates, settlement payouts, reimbursements, and other mass-payment types. A call or email can get you a custom quote and turnaround time so that your payments go out as promptly and affordably as possible, with no supplies needed from you. Upload a CSV file with payment data, and Checkeeper handles the rest—in less time and for less expense than most offices can do it.
7. No IT expertise needed
Downloading a lot of device-specific software and relying on your own in-house servers requires IT services for system maintenance, updating, troubleshooting, and security. Online, cloud-based tools handle much of that for you, sparing users the expense of pricey IT hires and outsourcing. Checkeeper is user-friendly and easy to navigate, and it contains all the free training demonstrations right inside the account.
8. No wasted or outdated checks
Wasted checks mean wasted money. Checkeeper offers real-time updating of bank and contact info so that users can stop wasting money on ordered checks that have to be discarded when they become outdated. The bank account and routing numbers appear on Checkeeper checks exactly as you input them, so users can revise them any time they change banks or open an additional account. Change your contact info any time you move, and even update your business logo, when needed. Print only the checks you need; waste nothing.
