Financial services counter

We cash checks

Payroll, income tax, insurance, settlement, SSI and Department of Labor checks — cashed in minutes at 415 Lee Street, no bank account and no appointment needed.

How it works

Walk in, walk out with cash

No account to open, no waiting for a deposit to clear, and no trip to the bank before it closes. Bring your check and your ID to the front counter and we will take it from there.

  • Expired ID accepted. We take an expired ID as proof of identification — one less errand before you get paid.
  • Open when the bank is not. Evenings and weekends, the same hours as the store.
  • Cash out debit cards too. Payroll cards, benefit cards and prepaid cards.
  • Shop while you are here. Cash your check and pick up groceries in the same trip.

Ask about your check

Bring your check and ID

A driver's licence, state ID, passport or military ID. An expired ID is fine as proof of identification.

We verify it at the counter

Our staff checks the payer and the amount. Most checks take only a few minutes.

Take your cash

Counted out in front of you, minus the fee for that check type. Ask us for the fee before you sign.
