Most Bank of America branches close at 1 p.m. on Saturday, though some stay open until 2 p.m. or 3 p.m.
Saturday hours vary by location. The most common closing time is 1 p.m., but branches in busier areas or larger cities often stay open until 2 p.m. or 3 p.m. A few branches close even earlier, at noon. The only way to know your specific branch's Saturday hours is to check directly—either by calling the branch, looking it up on the Bank of America website, or using their branch locator tool with your zip code.
Bank of America branches typically open between 9 a.m. and 10 a.m. on Saturday, depending on the location. Sunday hours are much shorter or nonexistent; most branches are closed on Sunday, though a small number open for limited hours in select markets.
Key Takeaways
- Saturday closing times range from noon to 3 p.m., with 1 p.m. being the most common, so you need to check your specific branch.
- The Bank of America branch locator on their website shows exact hours for any location you search.
- You can handle most banking tasks outside branch hours through the mobile app, online banking, ATMs, and phone support.
- If you need a teller for a specific task—like depositing a large check or opening an account—call ahead to confirm the branch is open and has staff available.
How to find your branch's exact Saturday hours
Go to bankofamerica.com and use the branch locator in the top right corner. Enter your zip code or address, and the tool will show you every nearby branch with its full hours, including Saturday. You can also call your branch directly—the phone number appears in the locator results. Calling is fastest if you need to confirm whether a specific service (like notary or safe deposit box access) is available on Saturday.
The Bank of America mobile app also displays branch hours. Open the app, tap the menu icon, select "Locations," and search by zip code or address. The hours update in real time, so if a branch has reduced hours on a particular Saturday, you'll see it there.
What you can do without visiting a branch on Saturday
Most banking tasks don't require a branch visit. You can transfer money between your own accounts, pay bills, deposit checks using mobile check deposit, send money to other people, and check your balance through the mobile app or online banking 24 hours a day, seven days a week. ATMs are available around the clock for cash withdrawals and deposits (though deposits may not post until the next business day).
If you need to speak with someone, Bank of America phone support is available Saturday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern time. You can also use the chat feature in the mobile app during those same hours. For account questions, fraud reports, or lost card issues, phone and chat support can often resolve the problem without a branch visit.
Tasks that usually require a branch visit
Opening a new account, applying for a loan or credit card, getting a cashier's check, using notary services, and accessing a safe deposit box typically require you to visit a branch in person. If you need one of these services, call ahead on Saturday morning to confirm the branch is open and has the right staff available. Some branches may have limited staffing on Saturday and might not be able to handle every service.
Large cash deposits (over $10,000) can be done at an ATM, but the bank may place a hold on the funds pending verification. If you need the money to clear quickly, a teller can process it faster, so a Saturday branch visit may be worth planning for.
Saturday banking outside normal hours
If your branch closes at 1 p.m. and you can't make it before then, you have options. Bank of America has some branches in select markets with extended Saturday hours—a few stay open until 4 p.m. or 5 p.m. Use the branch locator to search nearby areas and see if a location with later hours is reachable for you.
For most needs, the mobile app and online banking are faster than waiting for Monday. Mobile check deposit takes seconds, bill pay is instant, and transfers between accounts post the same day. If you're depositing a check on Saturday afternoon, use the mobile app—it will be in your account by Monday morning, which is the same timeline as a Saturday branch deposit anyway.
Planning ahead for Saturday banking
If you know you need a branch service on Saturday, don't wait until late morning. Call or check the app by 10 a.m. to confirm hours and staff availability. Branches can close early on holidays or have reduced staffing during busy periods, so a Saturday that looks normal might have different hours than usual.
For recurring tasks—like depositing checks or transferring money—set up automatic deposits or recurring transfers through online banking. This removes the need to visit a branch at all and works on weekends without any action from you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I deposit a check at a Bank of America ATM on Saturday?
Yes. ATM check deposits work 24 hours a day, including Saturday. The check will be processed and the funds will post to your account by Monday morning. If you need the money to clear faster, you'll need to visit a branch with a teller, but for most purposes, Saturday ATM deposit and Monday posting is standard.
What if I need cash on Saturday evening after the branch closes?
Use an ATM. Bank of America ATMs are available around the clock and dispense cash instantly. If you need a large amount and your daily withdrawal limit is lower, you can increase your ATM limit through the mobile app or by calling customer service before Saturday.
Are Bank of America branches open on Sunday?
Most branches are closed on Sunday. A very small number of locations in major cities have Sunday hours, typically 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., but this is rare. Check the branch locator to see if your location is one of them. For Sunday banking, use the mobile app, online banking, or ATMs.
Do I need an appointment to visit on Saturday?
No appointment is required for basic services like deposits or withdrawals. However, if you need to open an account, apply for a loan, or use notary services, calling ahead is wise. It ensures a banker is available and reduces your wait time.
What time should I arrive if I need to see a banker on Saturday?
Arrive at least 30 minutes before closing time. If your branch closes at 1 p.m., aim to be there by 12:30 p.m. Bankers may not start new applications or complex transactions close to closing time, so earlier in the day—between 10 a.m. and noon—is your best window.
