Target announces major change to accepted forms of payment

Target is making a major change to how customers pay for goods at the store.

Starting this month, the Minnesota-based retailer says it will no longer accept personal checks as a form of payment, a spokesperson confirmed to NBC Chicago.

The move was made due to “extremely low volumes,” the spokesperson said, adding that the retailer has taken “several measures” to notify customers in advance.

The change will go into effect July 15, several days after Target’s popular Circle Week event.

According to the spokesperson, Target accepts several forms of payment, including Target Circle Cards, cash, digital wallets, SNAP/EBT, credit and debit cards, and buy now-pay later services.

The move comes following other recent changes Target has made, including adding limitations to the retailer’s self-checkout policy.
