Right. Infeasible in the sense that both parties have to understand and agree to the terms. A paper check is an immediate and clear documentation of the transaction. I guess one other option Simple and other banks offer is to mail a physical paper check to a person or business.

I think we are moving away from these scenarios, but we still live in a world where paper checks may be a necessity in some situations and certainly very convenient.
