Woodforest branches typically close at 5 or 6 p.m. on weekdays, with Saturday hours ending by 1 p.m. and no Sunday service

Most Woodforest National Bank locations close at 5 p.m. on Monday through Friday, though some branches in Walmart stores stay open until 6 p.m. or later. Saturday hours vary by location but usually end between noon and 1 p.m. Woodforest does not operate on Sundays. The exact closing time for your branch depends on which store it's in and that store's operating hours, since Woodforest branches are located inside Walmart, Sam's Club, and a small number of other retailers.

Because branch hours are tied to the host store's schedule, a Walmart that closes at 11 p.m. will have a Woodforest that closes at 11 p.m., while a Walmart that closes at 9 p.m. will have a Woodforest that closes at 9 p.m. The safest way to confirm your specific branch's closing time is to call that location directly or check the hours on Woodforest's website by entering your zip code.

Key Takeaways

  • Woodforest branches close when their host store closes, so a branch inside a 24-hour Walmart will stay open much later than one in a store that closes at 9 p.m.
  • Standard weekday closing time is 5 p.m., but branches in some Walmart locations close at 6 p.m. or later depending on store hours.
  • Saturday hours end between noon and 1 p.m. at most locations, and Woodforest does not operate on Sundays.
  • You can confirm your branch's exact closing time by calling the location directly or using Woodforest's branch locator tool on their website.

How to find your branch's exact closing time

Go to Woodforest's branch locator at woodforest.com and enter your zip code or city. The results will show each branch's address, phone number, and hours for each day of the week. Call the branch directly if the website hours look outdated or if you want to confirm before making a trip—branch staff can tell you when ready whether a teller will be available when you plan to visit.

If you know which Walmart or Sam's Club your branch is in, you can also check that store's hours directly. Woodforest's hours will match or be slightly shorter than the host store's hours, since the bank closes before the store does in most cases.

What to do if you need banking after your branch closes

Woodforest operates a customer service line at 1-888-992-3808 that handles account questions, transfers, and some transactions during extended hours. The phone line is available 24/7, though wait times are longer outside normal business hours. You can also use Woodforest's mobile app or online banking portal to check balances, transfer money between accounts, pay bills, and deposit checks remotely without visiting a branch.

If you need cash after hours, you can use any ATM that accepts your Woodforest debit card. Woodforest ATMs are located inside Walmart and Sam's Club locations, and your card will work at most other bank ATMs as well, though some may charge a fee. Check your account for ATM locations and fees through the mobile app or by calling customer service.

Weekend and holiday hours

Woodforest branches are closed on Sundays and do not operate on federal holidays. Saturday hours are limited—most branches close between noon and 1 p.m., though a small number of locations in 24-hour Walmarts may stay open longer. If you need to handle banking on a weekend, use online banking, the mobile app, or call customer service instead of visiting a branch.

During holiday weeks, some branches may have reduced hours or close early. Check the branch locator or call ahead if you're planning a visit around a major holiday.

Why Woodforest hours depend on the host store

Woodforest operates as a bank-within-a-store, meaning each branch is physically located inside a Walmart, Sam's Club, or similar retailer and operates under that store's roof. The bank cannot stay open after the host store closes, and in most cases closes 30 minutes to an hour before the store does to allow staff to close out the day. This setup means your branch's hours are not set by Woodforest alone—they're determined by a combination of Woodforest's policies and the host store's operating schedule.

If you frequently need banking outside standard hours, look for a Woodforest branch inside a 24-hour Walmart, which will give you much later access. Alternatively, online banking and the mobile app let you handle most transactions without visiting a branch at all.
