Deposit Only stamp templates, ready to edit
Open the stamp maker with any of these
Every preview on this page carries a faint Estamplab watermark. Your own download does not: the editor renders your stamp again, clean, as a transparent PNG, an SVG or a PDF. See the full template library.
When to use Deposit Only stamp
- Checks
- Accounts receivable
- Bank deposits
How to make Deposit Only stamp
- Open the stamp maker and pick the Deposit Only template, or type your own wording.
- Set the diameter so it reads at real size, choose a border, and position the logo and the date line.
- One image format is $1.50. The zip at $3.00 adds the vector, the print PDF and the Word file.
How to put a deposit only stamp on a PDF
Export the deposit only stamp as a transparent PNG, then in Acrobat choose Edit PDF, then Add Image, and drop it where it belongs. Drag a corner to size it and flatten the file afterwards so it cannot be moved by whoever receives it. The transparent background is what stops a white rectangle appearing over the text underneath.
What size should a deposit only stamp be?
On A4, anything between 35 and 45 mm reads as a stamp that was pressed onto the page. Below about 30 mm the ring text stops being legible once the document is photocopied, and above about 50 mm the deposit only stamp starts competing with the content instead of marking it.
What a deposit only stamp does not prove
The organisation receiving the document decides whether a deposit only stamp is acceptable, and practice varies more than people expect. For invoices, internal approvals and routine correspondence an image is widely accepted. For deeds, filings and anything going to a court or a registry, confirm before you rely on it.
Frequently asked questions
Is the deposit only stamp free?
Designing and previewing a deposit only stamp is free, with no account and no watermark on the preview. The file is the paid part: $1.50 for a PNG or JPG, or $3.00 for every format in one zip, paid once.
Can I add a date to the deposit only stamp?
Yes, and you can add a time beside it. On a deposit only stamp the date can either be one you type, which stays fixed, or left blank so it resolves at the moment of each download.
What format do I get?
Images on their own: transparent PNG, white PNG, JPG, and high-resolution versions of each. The pack adds the SVG, the print PDF and the Word file where the date and serial stay editable text.
How much does it cost, and what do I get?
You build it. The deposit only stamp sample layouts are starting points rather than the product, so this is closer to a deposit only stamp generator than a deposit only stamp template. Adjust the deposit only stamp design, build the deposit only stamp online, preview at real size, then pay once. As a deposit only stamp maker it charges nothing to try, and the deposit only stamp price is $1.50 for a transparent deposit only stamp png or $3.00 for the whole pack.
