Hi jmoser728,
Most Swiss banks only cash checks for account holders. However, policies vary between banks, so consider calling or dropping by banks near you and asking if they will cash the check.
Bear in mind that there are some Swiss banks (like PostFinance) which do not provide checking services. It is also important to note that you will pay fees for cashing checks, and these can be high.
You can find more information in the guide to using checks in Switzerland.
If you use Paypal, check if your version of the Paypal app has the Cash a Check service. This service lets you cash checks to your Paypal account. They charge 1% (min. $5) for government checks.
