Checkeeper offers many easy-to-use features for creating, printing, and mailing custom business checks. Consider six ways to get the most out of Checkeeper and optimize the all the bonus features:
Users of many widely-used accounting and payroll software services appreciate the ability to add a custom check option to their other payment methods. Checkeeper integrates with Gusto, Square, QuickBooks Online, FreshBooks, Odoo, and more to offer customizing payment choices when a paper check is the preferred or necessary payment method. All data is recorded and categorized for users automatically, reducing manual data entry and the errors common to having to enter identical data in multiple places simultaneously. Go into Checkeeper ‘Add-ons’ to locate the compatible application, and then link your Checkeeper account for smoother, more streamlined bookkeeping and payment recording.
Checkeeper integrates with various applications for accounting and payroll and issuing payments. Linking Checkeeper to an Odoo or Xero account allows unpaid invoices held in those accounts to be imported directly into Checkeeper in order to generate an immediate payment check, complete with all details filled in automatically. To create even greater efficiency, multiple payments due to the same vendor are consolidated into a single check payment with an attached invoice table that breaks down the total. This reduces unnecessary paperwork and saves time, making the whole payment process more efficient and more accurate.
Manual data entry is a less efficient and less accurate way to record and store payment data, especially when financial transactions must be entered in multiple places. One omission, duplication, or misrecorded amount or date can throw off balances, and many of them will lead to a relatively useless set of records that are in constant need of correction and updating. Checkeeper users have access to an online, cloud-based smart check registry that remembers, records, and stores check details accurately. Track down a specific payment, a series of payments, or an entire check spending report in only a few clicks. Linking Checkeeper to compatible software, like QuickBooks Online, FreshBooks, Gusto, or others, means that check payment data can be entered and categorized automatically in those platforms, as well.
Checkeepers who need to share payment responsibilities or delegate bookkeeping appreciate the secure, multi-user accessibility that Checkeeper offers. Add the names and email addresses of prospective users you wish to authorize, and Checkeeper will do the rest by emailing them the secure link needed to initiate account setup. Checkeeper super users can limit the user permission settings to only allow access to specific features, and user permission settings can be expanded, changed, or revoked at any time.
Checkeeper can run payroll to print paychecks for as many employees as needed. Connecting Checkeeper to a compatible payroll software allows custom paychecks to be printed when needed, and all data updated in both applications. Checkeeper also offers payroll outsourcing whereby an entire batch of paychecks can be printed and mailed out for you. Having your paychecks and pay stubs printed in one batch and then sent back to the office via Next-Day Air in a single bundle is the most affordable way to get paychecks in the hands of onsite workers. Checkeeper can also mail individual paychecks to employees’ or contracted workers’ homes or offices.
Checkeeper’s business checks can be customized to match the look and needs of a company. Upload a color logo to place on each check so that payment checks work in tandem with other marketing material, reinforcing the brand in the mind of each person who receives payment. Users can also add custom check elements to their checks, either to replace the memo or to supplement it, so that they have another line item—such as customer ID or invoice number—to match to internal bookkeeping records. When you need to replace your logo or remove a custom field, simple deleting and replacing can be done inside the account, with no need to order all new checks. Only online check printing can offer these features.
