Pay with Cheque

Ok so I just got a cheque as an early birthday gift and was thinking of buying some Wonderland games with the cheque like it said on midnightsynergy.com. The thing is, I don't know if they allow Canadian money. And I don't really know how to pay with it. Can anybody help please?

Get a bank account, get a PayPal account, get the bank account linked with the PayPal account.

There.

Is this possible without a credit card?

Yup, just use your bank account.

I do believe I have a back account. I'll tell my dad about this. :3

Well it turns out I don't have a bank account. I thought my dad already set me up one. So how do I make a back account?

I honestly have NO idea.
Back to RTW for me.

Then leave it to somebody else who does have an idea instead of posting that you have no idea.

I would ask Patrick about paying by check. PM or mail to Midnight Synergy.
Patrick is located in Canada, so he just might accept Canadian money

Mnaual transfer, that would be the case, but I doubt. Although US dollars should work everywhere.

I've been thinking about this and I don't think the cheque is going to work out with my name on the "pay to the order of" blank. Or will it?

If To Bearer option is there and the name is blank, then it will. But it is EXTREMELY dangerous because if you dropped the cheque then everybody else could get your money.

Another solution that should work:
1. Save it into your dad/mom's bank account
2. Tell them to make a new cheque and write "BMT Micro" (if you are ordering through the pay website) on it.
3. Follow normal ordering procedures.

It all depends whether the cheque is "crossed" or not.

A crossed cheque has 2 parallel lines drawn across it, diagnolly, and between the lines is written "Payee only" or "Non-Negotiable" or "N.N.". Another way to cross a cheque is to strike out with a pen the words "or bearer".

If your cheque is crossed, then it is difficult to use without a bank account, but if it is not, then you can give it to any friend who has a bank account, then a few days later, once the cheque is cleared, they will give you cash, or even make the payment to Midnight Synergy on your behalf.
