Bank of America closes at 1 p.m. on Saturday at most branches

Most Bank of America branches close at 1 p.m. on Saturday. Some branches in busier areas stay open until 2 p.m., and a small number of locations have different hours. The only way to know your specific branch's closing time is to check directly — hours vary by location and change occasionally.

You can find your branch's exact Saturday hours in three ways: call the branch directly, visit the Bank of America website and search by address, or use the branch locator tool on their mobile app. If you need to do banking on Saturday afternoon, calling ahead takes 30 seconds and saves a wasted trip.

Key Takeaways

  • Most Bank of America branches close at 1 p.m. on Saturday, though some locations stay open until 2 p.m.
  • Your branch's hours depend on its location and may differ from the standard time, so checking before you go is the fastest approach.
  • You can find Saturday hours by calling your branch, searching the Bank of America website, or using their mobile app.
  • If you cannot visit during Saturday hours, you can handle many banking tasks online, through the mobile app, or at an ATM 24 hours a day.

How to find your specific branch's Saturday hours

The Bank of America website has a branch locator tool. Go to bankofamerica.com, click "Locations" at the top, enter your address or zip code, and the results will show each nearby branch with its full weekly hours listed below the address. Saturday hours appear on the same line as the other days.

If you prefer to call, search online for "Bank of America near me" plus your city, or look at your debit card or recent statement for a branch phone number. When you call, ask directly: "What time do you close on Saturday?" This takes less than a minute and removes any doubt.

The Bank of America mobile app also has a locator. Open the app, tap the menu icon, select "Locations," enter your address, and tap on your branch to see hours. The app updates more frequently than the website, so it is often the most current source.

What you can do outside of branch hours

Bank of America ATMs work 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You can withdraw cash, deposit checks (at ATMs with mobile deposit or check-scanning capability), transfer money between your accounts, and check your balance at any time. If your branch has a drive-through ATM, you do not even need to leave your car.

Online banking and the mobile app are also available around the clock. You can pay bills, transfer money, deposit checks by taking a photo, check your balance, and freeze or unfreeze your debit card without visiting a branch. For most routine tasks, these options are faster than waiting for Saturday hours anyway.

If you need to speak with someone outside of branch hours, Bank of America's phone line is open seven days a week. Call the number on the back of your debit card or on your statement. Wait times are usually longer on Saturday, but you can reach a representative.

Saturday hours at different types of Bank of America locations

Standard Bank of America branches typically close at 1 p.m. on Saturday. Some branches in shopping centers or downtown areas stay open until 2 p.m. because they see more foot traffic on weekends. A few locations in very busy areas may have different hours entirely.

Bank of America also operates inside some Walmart stores. These in-store branches often have different hours than standalone branches — some close earlier on Saturday, and some stay open later. If you bank at a Walmart location, check that specific branch's hours rather than assuming they match a nearby standalone branch.

Drive-through windows sometimes close earlier than the main branch entrance, even at the same location. If you need to use the drive-through on Saturday, ask when you call whether the drive-through closes before the branch itself.

Planning ahead for Saturday banking

If you know you need to visit on Saturday, call or check the app on Friday to confirm the hours. This is especially important if you need to do something that requires a teller — like depositing a large check, setting up a new account, or getting a cashier's check. These services cannot be done at an ATM and require a staff member.

If your branch closes at 1 p.m. and you work until noon, you have a narrow window. In that case, consider using the mobile app to deposit checks on Friday evening, or visit an ATM to withdraw cash before Saturday. Many people find that handling routine tasks online during the week eliminates the need to rush to the branch on Saturday.

What to do if you cannot reach your branch on Saturday

If you call your branch on Saturday and no one answers, the branch is closed. Do not assume the hours listed online are wrong — branches sometimes close early for staff meetings or other reasons. Try calling back 15 minutes later, or use the mobile app to handle your task instead.

If you need to speak with someone urgently on Saturday afternoon, call the main Bank of America customer service line at the number on your debit card. They can help with account questions, fraud reports, and other issues that do not require visiting a physical branch. Response times are longer on weekends, but the line is staffed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I deposit a check at Bank of America on Saturday afternoon after 1 p.m.?

If your branch closes at 1 p.m., you cannot deposit a check in person after that time. However, you can deposit checks 24 hours a day using the mobile app — take a photo of the front and back of the check and submit it through the app. The deposit posts within one to two business days.

Do Bank of America branches have different hours on holiday Saturdays?

Yes. On Saturdays that fall on or near federal holidays, many branches close earlier or stay closed entirely. Check the website or call your branch before visiting on a holiday weekend. The branch locator tool usually shows holiday hours if you search a few days in advance.

What if my Bank of America branch is inside a Walmart?

In-store branches have their own hours separate from the Walmart store itself. Your branch may close at 1 p.m. while Walmart stays open much later. Check the Bank of America locator tool and search for your specific Walmart location to see the branch hours.

Can I use a Bank of America ATM on Saturday if the branch is closed?

Yes. ATMs are available 24 hours a day, including Saturday afternoons and evenings. You can withdraw cash, check your balance, transfer money, and deposit checks at ATMs with mobile deposit capability, even when the branch is closed.

Is there a Bank of America branch near me that stays open later on Saturday?

Some branches in busy areas stay open until 2 p.m., but you have to check your specific location. Use the branch locator on bankofamerica.com or the mobile app, enter your address, and look at the Saturday hours for each nearby branch. Call ahead if you see one with later hours to confirm before you visit.
