I'm American, and all of this stuff happens automatically and digitally after I set up any new account. I'm not sure how writing a check would be easier.

Some banks still offer the transitional system I remember where they do it on your behalf, so once you have all your payees, you can go in every month and put in the amounts for each bill, and they mail a check from the bank to each place.
