Target offers various alternative payment methods, including PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, cash, digital wallets, credit cards, debit cards, and SNAP/EBT. The decision to stop accepting personal checks is influenced by the low volume of checks used at their stores and the availability of other payment options.
In 2009, it was estimated that nine out of 10 American consumers wrote a check at least once a year.
