CheckPrintPro vs OnlineCheckWriter.com

CheckPrintPro creates and prints checks from a computer or mobile device. It uses standard 8.5 × 11 inch check paper with inkjet, laser, or all-in-one printers; a special MICR printer is not required. Checks include MICR encoding used by banks for processing. Users can upload a PNG or JPG digital signature to a bank profile, search and filter check history, and export records to CSV for accounting software. No direct accounting integration is named. CheckPrintPro is available for macOS, Windows, and the web, with downloadable plans and a Hosted option. Downloadable editions keep bank information and check records locally, without cloud sync, and their desktop license is tied to one device unless transferred through support. Hosted provides cloud storage and use from any device; data is stored on servers in the United States and encrypted in transit and at rest. Hosted costs $9.99 per month and has a 7-day free trial with no credit card required, though signup requires email verification. Downloadable editions have a 30-day money-back guarantee.
