About This Template
Free USAA check template for military members and veterans: enter your USAA routing number (314074269 shown here as an illustrative example — USAA publishes this as a single number for all checking accounts, but confirm yours on your own check or in online banking) and account number to create printable checks. Download PDF, print. No signup. Standard format compatible with all US banks.
When to Use This Template
Use this template when you need to print checks for your USAA checking account. Ideal for rent payments, bills, or any situation where you need a physical check from your USAA account.
Who This Template Is For
This template is for USAA members (military service members, veterans, and their families) who want to print their own checks instead of ordering from USAA.
USAA Check Layout and Security Features
Harland Clarke prints USAA's checks under contract rather than USAA producing them itself, and the paper, microprinting, and security screen follow that printer's standard specification — the same one several major banks rely on. USAA — United Services Automobile Association — was founded in 1922 by a group of Army officers who couldn't get auto insurance from other companies because of the perceived risk of a military lifestyle; banking came later, and membership eligibility still traces back to that military-only origin.
See our guide to how the MICR line, microprinting, and security screen work on any US check →
Ordering Checks from USAA
Ordering happens through usaa.com or the USAA mobile app, but the actual print job goes to Harland Clarke on the back end. Delivery is typically quoted at around 7-10 business days, and orders include free deposit slips alongside the checks themselves.
Personal Banking Only
USAA offers two personal checking accounts: Classic Checking (no monthly fee, $25 minimum to open, up to $20/month reimbursed in out-of-network ATM fees) and Cashback Checking Plus (earns 10 cents per debit card purchase). Neither is a business account — USAA doesn't offer business checking or commercial banking products at all, only personal banking, insurance, and investment services for eligible military members and their families.

How to Use This Template
- 1

Print It, or Use It as a Voided Check
Print on blank check stock for a payable check, or write VOID across a printed copy — handy since USAA operates far fewer physical locations than most large banks, so a same-day counter check isn't always an option.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this template affiliated with USAA?
No, this is an independent check template. It's a standard check format that works with your USAA account when you enter your correct routing and account numbers.
What is USAA's routing number?
314074269 is USAA's published routing number, shown here as an example. USAA states it uses a single number for all checking accounts — but confirm it against your own USAA statement, online banking, or an existing check before printing anything you intend to deposit or send.
Who is eligible to bank with USAA?
USAA membership is restricted to active duty and veteran members of the U.S. military, officer candidates, and their immediate family — it's not open to the general public the way most banks on this site are. If you're not currently eligible, USAA membership can still extend to you later through a qualifying family member.
How do I order official checks directly from USAA?
Place the order through usaa.com or the USAA mobile app under banking services; Harland Clarke is who actually produces it. Orders typically arrive in about 7-10 business days and include free deposit slips.
Does USAA offer business checking accounts?
No. USAA's banking products are entirely personal — Classic Checking and Cashback Checking Plus — reflecting its focus on military members and their households rather than commercial banking. If you need a business account, you'll need to open one elsewhere.
