4. Ordering Info |
Return To Top |
-
I just opened an account with my bank. What documentation do I
need to order checks? You may place your order online as long as the information
you provide matches what your bank has on file. Please have one of the temporary
checks you are presently using, not a deposit slip, in front of you for reference
to help assure prompt fulfillment of your order. Your check information MUST match
the records on file at your financial institution. All orders are subject to verification.
Please review all of the information you have entered, double-checking it against
the information on your existing checks. For your security, if the information you
have provided is not accurate, there may be a delay in the processing of your order.
We are only able to print checks for banks in the United States.
-
Can I order over the Internet?
Yes! First time customers and reorders with account changes can use the "Quick Submit"
option during the order process as part of our fraud prevention measures. You can
also fax your printed order form with copies of voided check and deposit slip to:
1-800-822-0005.
-
Don't I have to order from my bank? You can order checks anywhere you choose.
Our checks are convenient to order, meet all bank requirements, and are often priced
dramatically lower.
-
What payment options do I have? We accept most major credit cards (Mastercard,
Visa, Discover, and American Express). We apologize but we cannot automatically
debit your checking account at this time.
-
How long does it take to receive my checks? You should receive your products
within 14 business days from the time we receive your order.
-
Why don't you print checks for foreign accounts? We don't print checks for
foreign accounts because of differences in the way bank information is printed on
the checks.
-
What do I do if I don't have a voided check to send in with my order? Go
to your bank and ask them for a specification sheet which includes your transit
routing number and your account number along with the correct format for the account
number.
-
Where is my check order I've already placed? You should receive your products
within 14 business days from the time we receive your order. If it's been longer
than 14 business days, call us at 1-866-314-8843.

How do I re-order checks on line? Select your design,
add to cart, provide shipping information, and payment method. Personalize your
check and submit your order online or print and mail your order.
-
Do I have to type in all my information if I am a reorder customer? At this
time, reorders via the internet are very similar to first-time orders. You will
be required to re-enter all of your information for security purposes. The difference
is you do not have to enter the quick-submit information or fax in a voided check.
We are currently working on an easier reorder process for our customers.

of your temporary checks you are presently using, not a deposit slip, in front of
you for reference to help assure prompt fulfillment of your order. Your check information
MUST match the records on file at your financial institution. All orders are subject

Will you process my order if I don't include a deposit slip? Yes, if you

slip.

different numbers on them than the voided check I submitted to you for an order.

security.
Our servers use industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), an advanced encryption
technology that works with Netscape Navigator and Communicator (version 2.0 and
above), Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 3.0 and above), and AOL (version 3.0
and above) browsers. SSL encrypts all of your personal information, including your
credit card number, name, and address, so that it cannot be intercepted as the information
travels over the Internet between your browser and our site.
The VeriSign Secure Site service, is one of the most recognized symbols of trust
on the Web, and offers our customers instant access to Sam's Club's security data.
Verisign reports that it is virtually unheard of for someone's credit card info
to be stolen via the Web and misused. And in the highly unlikely event that it is,
the Fair Credit Billing Act protects e -shoppers against unauthorized use of credit
information, limiting liability to only $50. (source: Verisign, Inc.)

You can be sure that transactions are secured by looking for the following cues:
- The URL in the browser window displays "https" at the beginning, instead of http.
In Netscape Communicator: The padlock in the lower left corner of the Navigator
window will be closed instead of open. Netscape users can also follow these steps
to see what level of encryption is protecting their transactions with your site:
- Go to the Web site you want to check. - Click the Security button in the Navigator's
toolbar. The Security Info dialog box indicates whether the Web site uses encryption.
- If it does, click the Open Page Info button to display more information about
the site's security features, including the type of encryption used.
In Internet Explorer: Microsoft Internet Explorer tells users when encryption is
in use by displaying a padlock icon in the bar at the bottom of the IE window. With
IE, users can find out a Web site's encryption level: - Go to the Web site you want
to check. - Right-click on the Web site's page and select Properties. - Click the
Certificates button. - In the Fields box, select "Encryption type." The Details
box shows you the level of encryption (40-bit or 128-bit).
