Paying by check authorizes a one-time electronic debit of your bank account

When you pay by check, you authorize American Express to use information from your check (such as routing number, account number and check serial number) to make a one-time electronic fund transfer from your bank or other asset account. Your payment may be withdrawn as soon as the same day it receives your check, and you will not receive that check back from your bank or financial institution. In certain circumstances it may process your payment as a check transaction.
