generally the easiest and most cost effective payment method.
In addition, the Clearing Period for a check payment
generally coincides with the order flow process.
Our Clearing Period for paper payment instruments is 7-11
business/banking days. Although most paper payments may clear
in a very short period, our Clearing Period is

Unfortunately, due to banking privacy policy, most banks
are unable/unwilling to verify the needed information to validate
the clearance of a check.

No. We are not set up to process Electronic Checks at
this time. However, many of our customers use a Bill

require BU bank account information, only payment address. Also,

My Account section. When sending payments, please reference
your BU account number.
