A cheque (British English) or check (American English; see spelling differences) is a document that orders a bank to pay a specific amount of money from a person's account to the person in whose name the cheque has been issued.
In the latter case, money may be withdrawn in cash by a person or company writing out a cheque payable to themselves. Cheques may be âopenâ, in which case they may be used to draw cash, or âcrossedâ with two parallel lines, in which case they cannot be presented for cash but must be paid into the account of the payee.
