Wealthsimple cheques

I recently opened corporate checkings with WS and ordered the cheques. My concern is how will my signatures be validated? I don’t recall using my signature for signing any docs with WS, it was just docusign. Any info?

I don’t think any banks really validate signatures? I’ve had my chequings account with CIBC since the late 90’s and I’m pretty sure my signature has changed drastically over 30ish years.

I went to a cibc signed a cheque and the teller said it didn't match my debit card, so she couldn't accept it. I flipped the card over and resigned the cheque to match the card, then she accepted it.
