Got questions?

We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

Can I cash a check that has a stop payment on it?

If the payee is not notified about the stop payment order and try to cash the check, it will come up as void. The resulting confusion could cause problems when it comes to their accounting. Reaching out to the payee and explaining what happened can help avoid confusion.

What if my stop payment still went through?

If the payment details provided are not exact or the payment is already in process, the stop payment cannot be guaranteed and it may still go through. If the payment is stopped successfully, you will see the payment go through your account and it will be reversed the next business day.

Does a stop payment void a check?

What Is a Stop Payment on a Check? A stop payment is a formal request made to a financial institution to cancel a check or payment that has not yet been processed. A stop payment order is issued by the account holder and can only be enacted if the check or payment has not already been processed by the recipient.

What does stop payment mean on a check?

A stop payment is a request to cancel a payment before it has been processed, for example by cancelling a check before it has been deposited. There are many reasons why a stop payment might be requested, including cancellations of goods or services, or human error in writing the wrong amount on a check.

What happens if you cash a check that has a stop payment on it?

When a check with an outstanding stop payment is received by us during the business day, it becomes pending in your personal checking account and must go through our nightly processing before it can be removed as pending from your account.

What happens if you cash a check that has been canceled?

A canceled check is a check that has been processed by the bank or financial institution, so it is no longer valid and cannot be reused. Banks cancel a check after the payee has cashed or deposited it. This indicates that the money has been transferred to the recipient and the transaction is complete.

Will a stop payment still show pending?

It is perfectly legal to stop payment on a check. The consequences of doing so will completely depend on the circumstances.
