    Endorser: the person who wrote on the back of the check
    Endorsee: the person the check was endorsed to

    Now granted, in order to deposit the check, the endorsee will then need to endorse the check, which will make them become an endorser, so it creates a circle of the payee becoming the endorser, who creates a endorsee, who then becomes an endorser and a new endorsee is created (the bank, technically), and the bank then becomes an endorser, etc., but that's the joys of this s—, uhh, stuff.

    Generally, “-er” is the person doing the actually, and “-ee” is the person receiving the action. So, the payer of a check is the person who is paying it. The payee is the person receiving it or that it is being paid to. The word endings work the same way here. Since endorser and endorsee are such usual words, it was easier for me to remember by thinking of other words with “-er” and “-ee” endings. Not sure if “payer” and “payee” would work for others, but if you can think of any “-er” and “-ee” words you're familiar with that are used the same way, maybe they'll help. 🙂

    So, I thought the endorser is the person who the check is written out to and signs the back of the back of the check.

    If the endorser transfers that check to someone else then that person is the endorsee.

    That is how I understood it.

    I agree with Vannessa too, so what I said was supposed to mean the same thing as what Vannessa said, but wasn't said clearly enough for anyone else to know it meant the same. lol. So…I agree that what Vannessa said is right, and if what I said doesn't sound like what Vannessa said, then don't listen to what I said, cause in my head it sounded the same, but my fingers may not have agreed with my head! hahaha

    @Lilla

    You're just way ahead of me. So I couldn't get the gist of the beauty you referred to yet. At this moment, I need a more like “yes or no” answer. But nothing short-said about you. Thanks very much for reaching out and sharing your opinion!!!!

    And isn't it wonderful this is the section that focuses on communication.

    The ee-or thing is definitely puts my frustration off the charts. I'm almost ready to put it in my throw away concept pile (I can't get it – it's too time consuming, irrelevant) but Suggestions like these make me think it probably is worth finding a way to remember pile.
