Novelty Cheques

A giant novelty cheque has become one of the most reliable set-pieces in Australian event marketing, charity fundraising, and award ceremonies. It is immediately understood by every audience member, it photographs perfectly, and it gives the moment a sense of scale and ceremony that no other prop achieves. Whether you are presenting a $500 prize at a local community event or announcing a $500,000 charity donation in front of a room of corporate donors, a custom novelty cheque makes the moment unmistakable.


At Paperlust Print Shop, we print novelty cheques on 5mm TEKpvc foamboard, a premium material that delivers a cleaner print surface, sharper photography result, and more durable construction than the corflute alternatives used by most competitors.


Standard size 1000 x 450mm. Full-colour printing with your logo, amount, and recipient details. Lightweight and portable, easy to hold on stage. 100% print guarantee on every order.

Specification

  • Product Dimensions: 1000 x 450mm
  • Material: 5mm TEKpvc Foamboard
  • Production: 3 to 5 business days after proof approval
  • 5mm TEKpvc foamboard: Printed on 5mm TEKpvc foamboard, a smooth-surfaced rigid foam that eliminates the texture visible on corflute alternatives for a sharper, more professional result.
  • Comes through the handling intact: The construction is more durable than the corflute alternative, so the cheque holds its shape while it is held up, and comes through repeated handling intact.
  • Lightweight to hold on stage: PVC foamboard is lightweight despite its rigidity, making it easy to hold comfortably during a presentation without tiring presenters.
  • Reusable for recurring events: PVC foamboard is durable enough for multiple event uses, with lamination options available for variable fields like amounts and recipient names between events.
  • Scale and ceremony no other prop achieves: A giant cheque is immediately understood by every audience member and gives the moment a sense of scale and ceremony that no other prop achieves, whether the presentation is a community prize or a corporate donation.
  • Laid out to read as a cheque: The layouts that work put the presenting logo top left, the date top right, the recipient in large legible type, and the amount in numerals as the visual anchor, so the prop reads instantly for what it is.
  • Built for the handover shot: The charity donation handover is the most iconic use, a cheque changing hands in a single camera-ready moment that is immediately shareable, and the same format carries award ceremonies, grand openings, and sponsorship announcements.
Artwork Guidelines
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the back of the novelty cheque printed?

The one printing choice is One Sided. Your artwork is printed in full colour on the front face. The back face is left unprinted. There is no double sided choice.

Is there a template, or can someone design the novelty cheque?

A blank template for the cheque can be downloaded on this page, as PDF, SVG and a Canva guide PNG. Custom Design adds a designer, two options on the first proof, and three revision rounds, with two working days added before the proof. Artwork Fix refines an editable PDF or SVG, covering scale, crop, vector colour edits, added text, logo, images, layout, and background removal, with one working day added before the proof.

How many novelty cheques can be ordered?

The quantity runs from one to ten, added one at a time, then twenty. For a run above twenty, or a request outside those choices, the Get Custom Quote button starts a quote by email.

What happens between upload and print?

Your file is reviewed before print. Low resolution, missing bleed, or text near the trim is flagged, and the fix is noted on the proof. It arrives by email within one or two business days. Printing holds until you approve it.

Two 1000 x 450 mm novelty cheques cost $128.36 in total, which is $64.18 each. This price is in Australian dollars and includes GST, based on the default selection of TEKpvc Foamboard, 5mm thickness and one sided printing. Standard delivery is $15 per order.

What This Is For

This novelty cheque is an oversized cheque. The layout comes from your own artwork, and the finished item is printed onto one board. It is held up, or handed over, at a presentation. The occasions it is used for are donations, awards, prizes, or sponsorships. Some people spell the product name as a novelty check, and it is a printed board item.

Cheque Fields

Beyond the logo, date, payee, and amount in numerals, your artwork can add the amount in words, a signature line, a memo line for the event or campaign, and a number. For a donation or charity cheque, the payee line carries the cause, and the figure is the amount given. For an award or prize, the payee line carries the winner's name. This big cheque sits in the Posters and Promotional Materials range, listed with posters, counter cards, standees, media walls, and cutouts.

File Setup

The setup sheet comes from the Artwork Guidelines tab. It sets the file at 1000mm W x 450mm H, at 100% scale. The file rules are CMYK, every font converted to outlines, and every linked element embedded.

  • PDF files: 10mm bleed; keep key text and graphics at least 5mm inside the trim; any border at least 5mm thick.
  • JPEG files: 250 to 300 ppi; keep key text and graphics 10mm clear of the trim edge; keep any border 10mm thick.

The file upload is in the cart after the item is added, up to 20MB. Files over 20MB can be shared as a Google Drive or Dropbox link. After checkout, the print shop can receive the artwork by email.
