Business deposit slips and an endorsement stamp

Checks get all the attention, but two small companions make business banking noticeably smoother: custom deposit slips and endorsement stamps. Neither is glamorous, both save time and reduce errors at the bank. If you make regular deposits, ordering your own is a small cost that pays back in convenience.

Custom deposit slips

Generic counter slips at the bank are slow to fill out. Custom business deposit slips are pre-printed with your account details and designed to match your records, so deposits go faster and your bookkeeping stays clean.

Endorsement stamps

An endorsement stamp marks the back of incoming checks instantly, “For Deposit Only,” your business name, and account number, so you do not hand-write it on every check. It speeds up processing and reduces the risk that a check is diverted if lost.

Key takeaway

If you deposit checks regularly, a custom deposit slip and a "For Deposit Only" endorsement stamp pay for themselves in saved time and fewer errors. They are inexpensive, and they make your trips to the bank faster and your records cleaner.

Why “For Deposit Only” matters

Stamping the back of a check “For Deposit Only” with your account number restricts it so it can only go into your account, important protection if a check is lost or stolen before you deposit it. Doing it with a stamp instead of by hand means it never gets skipped.
