This article explains how to setup Cheque Payments\u00a0as a payment gateway on your GetPaid website.<\/p>\n

To access these options, you need to have the Cheque Payments extension installed and activated.<\/section>\n

Overview<\/h2>\n

Generally, you’d want to use Cheque Payments as a checkout option if you are delivering good and services to a specific region in particular where cheques are still fairly common, as compared to a global clientele where cheque payments might not be feasible.<\/p>\n

If your business sells only tangible goods or you do not have the required resources to verify the authenticity of cheque-based payments, Cheque Payments should not be enabled.<\/section>\n

    \n
  • Activate – <\/strong>Tick the checkbox to activate cheque payments on your site.<\/li>\n
