DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

Deluxe Corporation, a Minnesota corporation (the “Registrant”), is filing these post-effective amendments (the “Post-Effective Amendments”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to deregister any and all shares of the Registrant’s common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Common Stock”), previously registered but otherwise unsold or otherwise unissued under the following registration statements on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statements”), together with any and all plan interests and other securities registered thereunder:

Registration Statement No. 333-283061, filed by the Registrant with the SEC on November 7, 2024, which registered an aggregate of 41,144 shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to an inducement award of 41,144 restricted stock units subject to time-based vesting which were granted by the Registrant to John Rubinetti on August 15, 2024, as inducement to accept employment as the Senior Vice President and President, B2B of the Registrant;

Registration Statement No. 333-150674, filed by the Registrant with the SEC on May 6, 2008, which registered an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock issuable under the Deluxe Corporation 2008 Stock Incentive Plan;

Registration Statement No. 333-48967, filed by the Registrant with the SEC on March 31, 1998, which registered an aggregate of 1,800,000 shares of Common Stock issuable under the 1998 DeluxeShares Plan;
