Is it Legal to use Check by Phone, Check by Fax, Checks by Internet?
Check by phone, check by fax and check by internet are completely legal. More commonly named 'Draft Check' or pre-authorized paper bank drafts have been in use in the industry since 1996. The main requirement for Draft Checks is that you need written or verbal pre-authorization from the primary checking account holder. After acquiring the pre-authorization, the banks will only need to see a stamp saying that the check was pre-authorized. Read our 'Drafting Checks - Legal?' page for more info.
No Signature Required!
Such as a credit card payment over the phone does not need a signature, so can checks. The banks only need to see on the check that it has been pre-authorized, so they can process the check.
