How to Buy Bank Checks Online
Buying bank checks online is a smart and easy way to save money. While your checking account might provide you with an option to buy checks directly from your bank, using a third-party vendor can be equally as secure and a lot less expensive. All you need is your account information and to know where to look.

Find a Web site that sells checks. Warehouse club stores such as Costco and Sam's Club sell checks through their Web sites, but you have to be a member. Web sites that don't require membership include ArtisticChecks.com, ChecksUnlimited.com, PromiseChecks.com and ChecksintheMail.com.

Choose the package you'd like. Most check vendors sell checks by the box (with 100-150 checks per box) and most offer deals in where the additional boxes purchased are discounted or free.

Enter your checking account number and your bank's routing number during checkout. Before you enter any of this information, make sure the address of the checkout page contains an "https://" at the beginning instead of the standard "http://". The "s" stands for "secure."
