Bank Drafts are certified payment instruments issued and guaranteed by a regulated bank. They are widely used for large purchases and cross-border deals because the funds are set aside by the issuing bank and released to the beneficiary upon deposit, giving sellers confidence and buyers a clean, auditable way to settle.

How a Bank Draft Works

Your bank withdraws the exact amount from your account or accepts cash, then issues a draft payable to your counterparty. Because the funds are already set aside, the draft is treated as guaranteed when presented for deposit. There is no hold period typical of personal checks and the risk of return is greatly reduced.

When a Bank Draft Makes Sense

Use a bank draft to close asset purchases, settle international trade invoices, pay escrow balances, or meet contract milestones where counterparties require proof of cleared funds and a documented paper trail.
