A cheque is a bill of exchange drawn upon a specified banker and payable on demand. See.. Distinction between a bill of Exchange and a Cheque. There are two types of Cheques, open cheques and crossed cheques. Open Cheque is one which is payable in cash across the counter of a bank. A crossed cheque is one on which two parallel transverse lines with or without the words "& Co." are drawn. The payment of such a cheque can be obtained only through a banker. Thus crossing is a direction to the drawee banker to pay the amount of money on a crossed cheque through a banker so that the party who obtains the payment of the cheque can be easily traced.
