Built-In Check Security

Document-based security features can combat two parts of the total check fraud equation -deterring counterfeit checks and check alterations - while educating financial institutions and retailers. Deluxe goes beyond the minimum features recommended by the Check Payment Systems Association (CPSA) in order to maximize fraud deterrence for negotiable documents. Some are obvious safeguards designed to make the check difficult to copy or alter, and others become evident only when fraud is attempted.

Make sure your checks have built-in security, like the padlock icon on your checks. Built-in security features helps to deter alteration and enable authentication. Deluxe continues to assess existing and new security features to ensure checks remain one of the most secure methods of payment.
