A:
To get a stemless check, you'll need to contact your bank directly and request this specific type of check. These checks don't include the bottom portion that's typically torn off and retained for record-keeping.
When speaking with your bank, make sure to mention that you want checks without perforated stubs. Some banks might refer to these as stub-free or detached-stub checks. You may need to specify this requirement when placing your next check order.
Keep in mind that while stemless checks save space and can look more professional, you'll want to maintain careful records of your transactions in another format. Consider using online banking, a check register app, or traditional paper ledger to track your spending since you won't have the physical stubs for reference.
