Every cheque issued through your roster prints to Payments Canada Standard 006 — certified MICR toner, compliant positioning, image-ready stock. That matters to a practice in a specific way: when a client’s cheque is rejected at deposit, the call comes to you. Printing to the national specification, with each client’s template validated before its first run, is how that call never happens.
Yes. Each client lives as its own entity with separate bank accounts, templates, registers, and audit trails — switch between them without logging out, with no risk of cross-client bleed.
Their signing officers get approval-only access and sign off from a phone or desktop. You prepare; they approve; the audit trail records who did which — exactly how engagement letters want it.
The flat $2.60 per cheque applies regardless of which client it belongs to. Issuance reports break out per entity, so you can re-bill each client precisely or absorb it into your fee.
Period-end batches, interim payment runs, and one-off urgent cheques all move through the same prepare-approve-dispatch path, so junior staff can be trained on it once. Client turnover is just as clean: archive the entity, export its full register, and hand the records over — nothing about one client’s departure touches another’s books.
Your first five cheques are free, with no monthly fee and nothing to pre-pay.
