SimpleChex vs WyChecks

SimpleChex is a web-based service for creating business checks as PDFs with MICR-encoded routing and account numbers. Users can print checks on plain white paper or blank check stock, including Costco NL-VT-compatible stock, or email a PDF for the recipient to print and deposit like a check. The product uses the E-13B MICR font used by bank scanners. Users can save payees and addresses, and add an image or typed signature to checks. SimpleChex logs checks, batches, and emails, and past checks can be reprinted as PDFs. Firm accounts allow unlimited team members, with access scoped to selected businesses or bank accounts. For QuickBooks payroll, users can upload a payroll PDF for a MICR line to be added to each page. The service does not hold, transmit, or process funds; checks clear through the user's existing bank relationship. The free plan is free and allows one business, unlimited bank accounts, 10 checks per month, and one user. Solo costs $5 a month; Firm costs $19 a month and includes up to 10 businesses, with each additional business at $2/mo.
