Cheque Payments
This article explains how to setup Cheque Payments as a payment gateway on your GetPaid website.
In order to access these options, you need to have the Cheque Payments extension installed and activated.
Overview
Generally, you'd want to use Cheque Payments as a checkout option if you are delivering good and services to a specific region in particular where cheques are still fairly common, as compared to a global clientele where cheque payments might not be feasible.
