Ordering Checks

Check Safety and Security
Chevy Chase Bank checks offer security features built into the check, including a padlock icon, micro printing, security screen and warning boxes that appear on the front and back of the check. These built-in security features are designed to make checks difficult to copy or alter, and they usually become evident only when fraud is attempted.
Do not put private information on checks like your Social Security Number, your driver’s license number or any unnecessary personal information. If you select duplicate check styles – you have the benefit of a carbon copy of the check you write, in case you forget to log it into your check register.
