Quicken checks on top are voucher-format business checks that print with the check at the top of a standard 8.5" x 11" sheet and two perforated stubs running below it. Checkomatic has manufactured Quicken compatible checks from Monroe, NY since 1997. Your company name, bank name, routing number, and account number come pre-printed on every sheet. Quicken fills in the payee, amount, date, and memo at print time. No MICR toner required. Standard laser or inkjet toner handles the variable output, and the MICR line is already on the paper.
What Is a Quicken Check on Top and How Does It Print?
The check on top is a voucher format. The printed check occupies the top third of the sheet. Two detachable voucher stubs sit below it, each with its own perforation line for a clean tear. One stub stays in your records as an accounts payable or payroll log. The other goes to the payee as a payment confirmation with whatever detail Quicken has printed on it, invoice numbers, pay period, deductions, and memo.
When you run a check print job in Quicken, the software outputs the transaction-specific fields: payee name, dollar amount, date, check number, and memo. Those fields land exactly in the positions the check on top format expects. Checkomatic formats the paper to align with Quicken's template, so the first sheet you run comes out correctly without manual adjustments.
Available in 20 background color options across diamond, marble, and prismatic textures. Free black and white logo printing on every order. Color logo printing available for a small additional fee. High-security upgrade adds enhanced microprinting and holographic elements for three cents per check.
Which Quicken Versions Are Compatible With the Check on Top Format?
Checkomatic's Quicken check on top is compatible with Quicken Home and Business, Quicken Premier, and Quicken Deluxe. These are the three versions most commonly used by individuals and small businesses that run household finances, rental property income, and small business accounts payable through Quicken's check writing feature.
If you're using a legacy version of Quicken or a configuration that differs from the standard template, contact Checkomatic before placing your order. The team has been formatting checks for Quicken users since 1997 and can confirm compatibility before you commit to a print run. Custom formatting is available at no extra charge when needed.
The check on top format is also the default layout for most general business check printing. If you use multiple accounting platforms and need checks that work across software, the business checks on top format and this Quicken-specific version use the same physical layout and can be used interchangeably in most Quicken configurations.
Quicken Voucher Checks vs 3-on-a-Page: Which Format Do You Need?
The check on top gives you one check per sheet with two stubs attached. The stubs provide a physical paper record for every payment. This format is the right choice when you need documentation attached to each check, for accounts payable to vendors, payroll to employees, or any payment where you or the payee needs a written record beyond what's in Quicken.
The Quicken 3-on-a-page checks put three checks on a single sheet with no stubs. All records stay inside Quicken rather than on paper. That format costs less per check and makes sense for high-volume payment runs where your Quicken records are the primary documentation. If you're unsure which format your Quicken account uses as default, start with the check on top. It's the most widely used Quicken format and covers the broadest range of workflows.
