Check-cashing through PayPal is quite fast and easy.

All you need is to take a picture of the check you want to cash and send it for review using the PayPal App on your mobile device, instead of visiting a physical check cashing location which might consume you some time.

Reviewing the check only takes a few seconds or in rare cases 3-5 minutes after which your check will be approved, and your funds transferred to a PayPal Cash plus Account in minutes, with the associated fees.

You can then cash out your amount at any PayPal branch near you or transfer the amount to any convenient financial institution linked to your PayPal to withdraw your amount. Fees are usually waived for a limited time only.

Note that, Checks which are not approved cannot be processed and funds will not be received through PayPal.
