Bulk Cheque Amount to Words Converter
Paste a list of amounts and see each one written in words, ready to copy into a spreadsheet or download. Everything runs in your browser.
Paste a column from Excel or Google Sheets. Add a label before the amount with a Tab, semicolon or comma.
How to paste your amounts
- Choose the currency the cheques are written in. It applies to every line.
- Copy a column of amounts from Excel, Google Sheets or a text file and paste it into the box. You can paste up to three columns at once; the rightmost amount is used and the other columns become the label.
-
Check any rows marked as needing attention. If amounts such as
12,50are flagged as ambiguous, set the decimal separator to dot or comma. - Use Copy words to get one line per pasted line, with blank lines left where an amount couldn’t be converted, so you can paste the result straight into the next column of your sheet. Or download a CSV with the label, amount, words and status.

Frequently asked questions
Are my amounts sent anywhere?
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser. The amounts and labels you paste are never uploaded, stored on a server, or included in analytics, and the CSV and text downloads are created on your device.
Which number formats can I paste?
Plain numbers, comma or dot thousands separators, Indian lakh grouping (1,00,000), space grouping, Arabic-Indic digits, and amounts with currency symbols or codes such as $, ₹, Rs. or LKR. You can put a label before each amount, separated by a Tab, semicolon or comma, and the label is kept in the results and downloads.
How many amounts can I convert at once?
Up to 5,000 amounts per paste. Each amount can have at most 12 digits before the decimal point and 2 after it. Amounts outside these limits are flagged rather than rounded, so nothing on a cheque is ever changed without you seeing it.
Why is the wording written this way?
The words use the same style as the WriteCheque single-amount converter: each word capitalised, the currency name after the whole units, the cents or paise after “And”, and “Only” at the end, for example “Eighty Five Thousand Rupees Only”. Some banks prefer hyphens or “and” between hundreds and tens; check your bank’s preferred format before writing the cheque.
