Stop Payment Clause Samples

A Stop Payment clause allows an account holder to instruct their bank to prevent the payment of a specific check or transaction before it is processed. Typically, the account holder must provide details such as the check number, amount, and payee, and may be required to submit the request in writing or through the bank’s online system. This clause serves to protect the account holder from unauthorized, erroneous, or fraudulent payments, giving them a mechanism to halt transactions that should not be completed.
