Personal Check Usage Policy

*Previously CHECK-CASHING POLICY

ShopRite offers the convenience of paying for purchases with a personal check in stores, with an authorized ShopRite Price Plus® Club (PPC) card. To obtain authorization for check-payment privileges, visit customer service and present a personal check and an acceptable form of identification, such as a valid driver’s license or a government-issued ID.

• All personal checks must be pre-printed with name and bank account number. If address is not pre-printed, it must be handwritten on the face of the check.

• The first time that a customer presents a check for payment, the check will be accepted for the exact amount of the order, up to $200. This check must clear the bank before another check will be accepted (approximately 10 business days). After the first check clears, the following rules apply:
  • Personal checks may be written for up to $30 over the amount of the order.
  • Checks must be signed in the presence of the cashier.
  • Customers may use one check per day and up to 3 checks within a 7-day period.
  • Any check returned by the bank is subject to a returned-check fee, up to the maximum allowable by law.
  • All personal checks must be made payable to “ShopRite.”

• We cannot accept any of the following for payment: starter checks, money orders, checks naming two parties as payees, checks made payable to “Cash,” insurance drafts, altered checks, and undated checks.

• We reserve the right to refuse to accept any check presented.
