Jan 19, 2014 at 1:17 comment added Dilip Sarwate In the U.S. at least, many banks offer apps for cell phones that allow you to submit a photographic image of a check instead of demanding that the recipient go physically to a bank office and deposit the check. I don't have such an app but even if I had one, the physical act of walking down my driveway to get the envelope containing the check from my mailbox at the kerb is sometimes difficult to do because of ice or snow or rain or wind....
Jan 18, 2014 at 20:23 comment added gerrit @BrenBarn For convenience. Doesn't a cheque mean that the recipient has to physically go somewhere? By "it doesn't need to be fast" I mean the money may take time, not that both sender and recipient have plenty of time. From what I understand how cheques work, they take a non-trivial amount of time from both the sender and the recipient.
Jan 18, 2014 at 20:20 comment added BrenBarn No, it would be a physical check. I was just wondering why/if you need it to be online given that you don't need it to be fast.

Jan 18, 2014 at 20:19 comment added gerrit @BrenBarn I have no clue. I'm from Europe and haven't seen a cheque in my life. Is that something I can do completely through internet-banking, with the money deposited in my friends' account automatically?
