Pay your vendors faster with the fast or overnight check options.
Fast checks are sent in 3 business days. If you need to get your payment there even faster, choose the overnight check option - your check will arrive the next business day. Both fast and overnight checks are sent via FedEx instead of USPS's regular delivery time of 5 to 7 business days.
