How to Reorder Business Checks (and What You'll Need)

Running low on checks is not the moment to discover you do not have the right account details handy. Reordering is quick when you come prepared, and you do not have to order through your bank, which is often slower and pricier. Here is what to have ready and how to avoid the mistakes that cause reprints.

What you’ll need

Detail	Where to find it
Bank routing number	Bottom-left of a current check
Account number	Bottom-center of a current check
Starting check number	Continue from your last check
Bank name and address	Your statement or current check
Business name and address	As it should appear on the check
Software (if computer checks)	QuickBooks, etc., for layout match

You don’t have to use your bank

Many businesses assume checks must come from the bank. They do not. Ordering from a print shop is typically faster and cheaper, and you get the same bank-compatible, secure checks. All the bank-specific information lives in those numbers along the bottom of your existing check.

Avoid these reorder mistakes

• Wrong starting number, which creates duplicate check numbers and bookkeeping confusion.
• Outdated address, if your business moved since the last order.
• Transposed account digits, always verify against a real check.
• Forgetting format, voucher vs. standard, or which software you print from.
