Deposit Checks Anytime Anywhere with Mobile Deposit
Mobile Deposit makes it easy to add money to your account without stopping by a branch. All you need is your phone and a few minutes. It is secure, convenient, and one of the most helpful tools in our Mobile Banking App for anyone with a busy schedule.
Why Mobile Deposit is Worth Using
Quick and Convenient
Whether you are at home, at work, or out running errands, you can deposit a check right from your phone. It saves you the trip to your local branch and lets you handle banking on your own time.
Secure Technology
Your check images are encrypted and transmitted through the same secure channels that protect all your digital banking activity. Once the deposit is submitted, the images are stored safely inside the system and not saved on your device, adding an extra level of protection.
No Need to Rearrange Your Schedule
Can’t make it to your local branch until the end of the week? No problem! You no longer need to rearrange your day to get to the bank during business hours. When you deposit a check through our Mobile Banking App, your funds are typically available the next business day, depending on the time of day you make the deposit. Now you can deposit your check in between errands, at whatever time is right for you.
Tips for Utilizing Mobile Deposit
Know the Limits
Checks over $5,000 cannot be deposited through Mobile Deposit. If you receive a larger check, plan to bring it to a branch so it can be processed without delay.
Endorse the Check Correctly
Make sure to sign the back of the check and include the wording “For Mobile Deposit Only.” You may notice that some checks have a box you can mark for Mobile Deposit. You may check this box off, but you must also write in “For Mobile Deposit Only” as well. Failure to include this wording will result in your check not being successfully deposited.
Take Clear Photos
Lay the check on a flat, well-lit surface. Hold your phone steady and make sure all four corners are visible. Our Mobile Banking App will guide you through capturing both sides of the check and confirming all information is correct before you submit your request for deposit. Keep in mind, once you make a Mobile Deposit, your check still needs to be reviewed and confirmed by our Operations Department before the funds are made available.
Keep the Check for a Short Time
After you submit the deposit, hold onto the check until you see the funds posted. Once everything is confirmed, you can safely destroy it. Depending on what time of day you initiate the mobile deposit, funds will typically be available by the next business day.
Final Thoughts
Mobile Deposit adds flexibility to your routine and makes it easier to manage your money on your own terms. It is a simple tool that helps you stay on top of your finances without adding extra steps to your daily schedule.
