Your account number is on your debit card, checks, and online banking
Your Regions checking account number is printed on the bottom left of your checks, on the back of your debit card, and visible in your online banking portal. If you have none of these in front of you, you can call Regions customer service at 1-800-regions (1-800-734-4667) and they will read it to you over the phone after verifying your identity.
The account number is typically 10 digits long for Regions accounts. You will need this number when setting up direct deposit, paying bills by phone, transferring money between accounts, or providing banking details to an employer or creditor.
Key Takeaways
- Your Regions checking account number appears on the bottom left of any checks you have, printed after the routing number.
- The back of your Regions debit card displays your account number, usually near the bottom or on the magnetic stripe area.
- Log into your Regions online banking account or mobile app to see your account number listed under account details or account summary.
- Call Regions customer service at 1-800-734-4667 if you cannot locate your account number through any of these methods.
Finding it on your checks
If you have a checkbook, open it and look at the bottom of any check. You will see three sets of numbers printed in a special magnetic ink format. The first set (usually nine digits) is your routing number. The second set, which comes immediately after, is your account number. The account number is typically 10 digits.
The routing number identifies which Regions branch or processing center handles your account. The account number identifies your specific account within Regions' system. Both are necessary for transactions like direct deposit or wire transfers, but the account number alone is what you need for most routine banking tasks.
Checking your debit card
Your Regions debit card has your account number printed on it, though the location varies slightly depending on the card design. Most commonly, it appears on the back of the card near the bottom, or embossed on the front below your name. Some cards print it on the magnetic stripe area on the back.
The card itself is not required to access your account number — it is simply a convenient place to find it if you have the card with you. If your card is lost, stolen, or expired, you can still retrieve your account number through online banking or by calling customer service.
Logging into Regions online banking
Go to regions.com and sign in with your username and password. Once logged in, look for a section labeled "Account Details," "Account Summary," or "My Accounts." Your checking account number will be displayed there, usually alongside your account type and current balance.
If you have multiple accounts with Regions, each one will have its own account number listed separately. The online portal also shows your routing number, which you may need for direct deposit or other transfers. If you have forgotten your login credentials, use the "Forgot Username" or "Forgot Password" link on the login page to reset them.
Using the Regions mobile app
Download the Regions mobile app and sign in with the same credentials you use for online banking. Tap on your checking account to view the account details screen. Your account number will be displayed prominently, often with an option to copy it to your clipboard for easy pasting into forms or other apps.
The mobile app is often faster than the website if you need your account number quickly while away from a computer. You can also use the app to view your routing number, recent transactions, and account balance all in one place.
Calling Regions customer service
If you do not have access to checks, your debit card, or online banking, call Regions customer service at 1-800-734-4667. Have your Social Security number, date of birth, and the phone number associated with your account ready. The representative will verify your identity and then provide your account number over the phone.
Customer service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If you are calling from outside the United States, you can find the international phone number on the Regions website. Wait times are typically shorter during business hours on weekdays.
What to do if you cannot verify your identity
If you call customer service but cannot provide the information they need to verify your identity, you may need to visit a Regions branch in person. Bring a government-issued photo ID such as a driver's license or passport. A branch representative can confirm your identity and provide your account number immediately.
Visiting a branch is also an option if you prefer not to share personal information over the phone. Most Regions branches are open Monday through Friday during standard business hours, with some locations open on Saturday mornings. You can find branch hours and locations on the Regions website.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my account number the same as my routing number?
No. Your routing number identifies the Regions branch or processing center that handles your account, while your account number identifies your specific account. Both appear on your checks, but they are separate numbers. You need both for direct deposit and wire transfers, but only the account number for most other tasks.
Can I share my account number with anyone?
Your account number alone cannot be used to withdraw money or make unauthorized transactions, but it is still sensitive information. Share it only with people or organizations you trust, such as your employer for direct deposit or a creditor for bill payments. Never share your full account number in unsecured emails or texts.
What if my account number appears different on my check versus my debit card?
This is unusual but can happen if your account was recently transferred or if you have multiple accounts. Contact Regions customer service to confirm which number is correct for your primary checking account. They can clarify which account each number belongs to.
Do I need my account number to use an ATM?
No. You only need your debit card and PIN to withdraw money or check your balance at a Regions ATM or any ATM in the Allpoint network. Your account number is needed for transactions like direct deposit, bill payments, or transfers between banks.
