indorsement
Back-of-check signature
Indorsement is a variant spelling of endorsement, more common in legal and financial contexts.
It refers to signing the back of a check or other negotiable instrument to transfer it or make it payable: The bank required her indorsement before processing the deposit.
The spelling with "i" persists in American legal terminology, though endorsement dominates in general usage.
