Ordering Online is Safe and Easy!

We understand that providing your checking account details and credit card information online can cause concern. Protecting your personal and financial details is a responsibility we take very seriously. To maintain the integrity of information exchanged through our online order system, we use Secure Sockets Layer technology (SSL).

SSL encrypts your order information in a manner that can be decoded only by Identity Check Printers. At the minimum, secure sockets use 40-bit encryption. This means the data you submit is scrambled in one of over 1 TRILLION possible combinations. Only our company has the key to determine which combination is used and, therefore, can read the information you send online.

You can verify that you are accessing a secure server, both on Identity Check Printers' site and others, in a couple of ways. If you see an unbroken key (in Netscape) or a closed lock (in Explorer) in the lower left corner of your browser when you access the server, SSL is active. You can also check the URL line of your browser - when accessing a secure server, the first characters of the site address will change from "http" to "https."

Think of how often you have left the check on a restaurant's table. Many times your name, credit card number and expiration date are in plain view. When ordering Identity Check Printers online, however, you can rest assured the information you transmit is seen only by us.

Check Security Features

Identity Check Printers is an active member of the American Mail Order Association (AMOCA).

AMOCA was formed to represent some of America's leading direct mail check companies.

AMOCA instituted Fraud Alert , a procedure to identify and prevent unauthorized orders of checks. The organization acts as a clearing house for suspected fraudulent check order requests. If one AMOCA member discovers a possible unauthorized order, the other members are notified within 24 hours to stop the check order from being processed.

Each member of AMOCA agrees to follow the American National Standards Institute's (ANSI) high criteria for check printing, the same standards followed by all accepted financial institutions.

Checks under the AMOCA guarantee are printed with all of the same specifications required of any financial institution and therefore must be accepted by them in the course of daily banking.

Additional security measures on all our checks are:
The icon to the right of the word "Dollars", indicating to the Bank or Credit Union that the check contains security features that will help them detect a copy from the original document
The icon, indicating that micro-security print is used in the design. This is very small print that will break up if it is photocopied
A panel, on the check reverse, describing some of the security features incorporated into the check design
