A traveler's cheque is used as replacement for cash, particularly by those who are traveling. People use traveler's cheques instead of cash because traveler's cheques can be replaced if lost or stolen, whereas cash would simply be gone. Traveler's cheques can be made out to anyone.
A cashier's check is a check made out to a specific individual or organization for a specific amount and is usually used to make a specific purchase or make a large payment.
Both cashier's checks and traveler's cheques are considered "guaranteed funds" because the money for them has been secured by the issuing bank in advance and placed in a holding account until the check is cashed.
