Ask HN: Would you use a check printing service via an API?

I'd love to use something like this. I run several API companies, all of which have some form of affiliate program.

Would be really convenient to have a simple API to send affiliate checks every month, instead of handling it manually.

I did a bit of research into this a while back, and there was another option from WellsFargo (I think?), but it was really complicated and required lots of talking with salespeople and the like :(

If I were paying out affiliates or similar I could see where this could be useful. However, it'd have to be very simply and easy compared to printing a batch of checks with quickbooks or similar.

Here's one that's in BETA: https://www.lob.com/services/checks

Yes, I can think of a lot of uses if it was integrated with the accounting application I work for :)

Yes. We did not find a good one when we looked, so we mail a lot of checks manually for now.

Yes absolutely. Would it mail them out too?
