What is a personal check that the bank guarantees or certifies to be good?
A personal check that the bank guarantees or certifies to be good is known as a certified check. When a bank certifies a check, it verifies that the funds are available in the account and reserves those funds for the payee, ensuring that the check will not bounce. This provides assurance to the recipient that they will receive the specified amount. Certified checks are commonly used in transactions where large sums of money are involved, such as real estate purchases.
Who can certify a check?
Only the bank can certify a check, or someone at the bank. Usually, the bank will not certify a personal check, they will issue what is called a "certified check". A certified check is guaranteed to have available funds by the bank that certifies it. Certified means the funds are held aside. Anyone with a certified check made out to them can go to that bank and collect cash. In days of banking past, you could have a personal or business check certified by the bank, and they would stamp the check "certified" and hold the funds aside on that item. Now, the bank will just issue a certified check after taking the money from your account and the certified check will be drawn on the bank's account. This answer is for the U.S. banking system.
