Save 57% on checks and get guarantees you won’t find anywhere else
An interview with Roger Oldaker, a check printing and security expert

The National Check Fraud Center estimates check washing causes $815 million in damages every year. So, if you’re going to print checks, it’s important to take precautions to ensure they make it safely from your office to the recipient. Roger explains how his company’s checks provide uncompromised security at half the price.

Q: Why do you call your checks the “uncompromised line”? Checks
A: Although there is no way to guarantee 100% protection, we provide so much security within our check stock that potential thieves will decide to go after an easier target (i.e. an easier check to commit fraud on). It’s the same theory that many home security companies use by putting signs in front of their clients’ houses. Most thieves will see that sign and go to the next house that has no sign of protection.

Q: What are some of the features that make your checks so secure?
A: As you can see from the image to the right, all of our checks come with 10 standard security features to help prevent check washing.

Q: How does your pricing compare to competitors such as Deluxe?
A: We’re 57% cheaper than Deluxe on orders of 500 checks.

Q: How can an Abacus customer get their checks 50% off?
A:
All first time orders from Abacus customers are eligible for "Buy 250 Abacus Laser Checks, Get 250 Free". So, on your first purchase, order 250 Abacus Laser checks and we'll double your order...for free! We save Abacus clients a lot of money when purchasing their checks and potentially save them much more money should a thief attempt to wash their check (rewrite it to a different payee and increase the amount payable).

Q: How does your Bank Freedom Guarantee protect me?
A:
Order a 6 month supply of checks, and should you change banks or accounts, we will credit you with any unused checks on your next order (up to 500 checks).

Q: Are your checks guaranteed to work with AbacusLaw?
A:
Yes. Our checks work seamlessly to print from both operating and trust accounts from within AbacusLaw. To order high security checks with the Bank Freedom Guarantee and save up to 57%, click here, or call 800-782-2946.
