Your account number is in the Accounts tab, then tap the account and look for the full number under the account name
Open the Chase Mobile App and go to the Accounts tab at the bottom of the screen. Tap the checking account you want. At the top of that account's details page, you will see your account name (like "Chase Total Checking") and directly below it, your full account number. The number is usually displayed as a series of digits, sometimes with the last four digits highlighted or the middle digits masked for security.
If you do not see the number right away, scroll up on the account details page. Chase sometimes places the account number near the top but below the account balance. You can also tap the account number itself to copy it to your clipboard, which is useful if you need to paste it into a form or send it to someone.
The account number you see in the app is the same number printed on the bottom left of your physical debit card and on your paper checks. It is a nine-digit number unique to your specific checking account.
Key Takeaways
- Your Chase checking account number appears in the Accounts tab under your account name once you tap the account.
- The account number is the same nine-digit number on your debit card and checks.
- You can tap the account number in the app to copy it without typing it out.
- If the number is not visible, scroll up on the account details page or check that you are viewing the correct account.
- The app may mask some digits for security, but tapping the number will show or copy the full version.
What to do if the account number is not visible
If you tap your checking account and do not see the account number displayed, first make sure you are looking at the right account. Chase users with multiple accounts sometimes tap a savings account or money market account by mistake. The account name at the top of the page tells you which account you are viewing.
If you are on the correct account and still do not see the number, try scrolling up to the very top of the account details page. Some versions of the Chase app place the account number higher than the balance or recent transactions. If scrolling does not work, close the app completely and reopen it, then navigate back to the account. A refresh often fixes display issues.
If the number still does not appear after these steps, you can find your account number in other places: on a paper check, on your debit card, or by calling Chase customer service at the number on the back of your card.
Why you might need your account number
Your account number is required for direct deposit setup, wire transfers, and ACH transfers (when you move money between banks). Employers, payroll services, and other banks need this number to send money into your Chase account. You will also need it if you are setting up automatic bill payments or if someone outside Chase needs to deposit money into your account.
When you share your account number, you are generally safe doing so. The account number alone cannot be used to withdraw money or make purchases. However, combined with your routing number (which is public and the same for all Chase customers in your region), it can be used to set up transfers. Never share your full debit card number, PIN, or online password.
Finding your routing number at the same time
Your Chase routing number is different from your account number. The routing number identifies Chase as your bank and the specific branch or region. You may need both numbers together for wire transfers or setting up direct deposit.
The Chase Mobile App does not always display the routing number in the same place as the account number. To find it, go to the Accounts tab, tap your checking account, and look for a section labeled "Account Details" or "Routing Number." If you cannot find it in the app, call Chase at the number on the back of your card, or visit a Chase branch in person. You can also find the routing number on a paper check—it is the first set of numbers at the bottom left, before the account number.
Saving your account number for future use
Once you copy your account number from the app, you have a few safe options for storing it. You can paste it into a password manager (like Dashlane or 1Password) where it will be encrypted and protected. You can also write it down and keep it in a secure place at home, separate from your debit card and PIN.
Do not email your account number to yourself or store it in an unencrypted note on your phone. Do not take a screenshot of the app showing your account number and save it to your camera roll. These methods leave your account number visible to anyone who gains access to your email or phone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can someone withdraw money from my account if they only have my account number?
No. Your account number alone is not enough to withdraw money or make purchases. A person would also need your routing number, PIN, or online password. However, with both your account and routing number, someone could set up an unauthorized ACH transfer, so do not share these numbers with people you do not trust.
Is my account number the same as my debit card number?
No. Your debit card number is a 16-digit number printed on the front of your card. Your account number is a 9-digit number printed at the bottom of your card and on your checks. They are different numbers tied to the same account.
What if I lost my debit card and need my account number?
You can still find your account number in the Chase Mobile App by logging in and going to Accounts, then tapping your checking account. If you do not have the app, call Chase customer service at the number on your statement or visit a Chase branch with your ID.
Do I need my account number to log into the Chase app?
No. You log into the Chase app with your username and password, or with biometric login (fingerprint or face recognition). Your account number is only needed for transfers, direct deposit, and other transactions outside the app.
