# Checkbook

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/232153/checkbook

> Checkbook is a payment processing solution that helps businesses manage online payments via checks, automated clearing house (ACH) and debit or credit cards. It enables organizations to create and send custom invoices to customers, automate billing activities and receive status updates for invoice payments.

Features of Checkbook include accounting, automated notifications, mobile payments, reporting and more. The application offers white-labeling capabilities, which let businesses personalize mailed checks using a custom logo and name. Additionally, recipients can utilize the real-time payments (RTP) network to directly receive payments in their bank accounts.

Checkbook comes with an application programming interface (API), which facilitates integration with various third-party accounting systems such as Sage Intacct, QuickBooks and Accounting Seed. Pricing is available on a monthly subscription and support is extended via phone, email, FAQs and other online measures.

## Reviews

### "Severe Deterioration Since January 2026" — 1.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *18 February 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ability to issue paper checks. That his a fairly unique feature and is of value. The APIs were fairly clean to integrate to.
> 
> **Cons**: They were fine for a number of years but things dramatically changed this year. With one day notice they changed their processing timelines from 1 day to 3 days. They then had a series of errors that extended the 3 day fund hold to 6 days. They have done a terrible job of communicating, have been combative, and have turned into an awful partner. They are also, with no notice, instituting burdensome rules that I have not seen from other processors and offering no justification for those rules. My guess is that they had a major fraud incident. Something definitely changed on their end.
> 
> Since January, it's been horrible. They have been extremely difficult to work with, unpredictable, and we have moved most of our processes away. As soon as we can completely remove them from our system, we will. I would absolutely not recommend them to anyone.
