Most Bank of America branches close at 1 p.m. on Saturday
Bank of America's standard Saturday closing time is 1 p.m., though some branches stay open until 2 p.m. or 3 p.m. depending on location. Opening time on Saturday is usually 9 a.m. The exact hours for your branch may differ, so checking before you go saves a trip.
Saturday hours are shorter than weekday hours because fewer customers visit on weekends and the bank needs time for staff to process transactions and prepare for Monday. If you need to do banking on Saturday, arriving in the morning gives you the most time to complete your tasks.

How to find your branch's Saturday hours
The Bank of America website has a branch locator tool where you enter your zip code or address and see all nearby branches with their hours. Go to bankofamerica.com, select "Locations" at the top of the page, and type in where you are. The results show each branch's hours for every day of the week, including Saturday.
The Bank of America mobile app also displays branch hours. Open the app, tap the menu icon, select "Locations," and search for your branch. You will see the full weekly schedule and can save your preferred branch for quick access later.
If you prefer to call, find the phone number for your branch through the locator tool and ask directly. The staff can tell you Saturday hours and whether they have a drive-through window open on weekends.
What you can do when the branch is closed
Bank of America ATMs work 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You can withdraw cash, deposit checks, transfer money between accounts, and check your balance at any ATM, even after the branch closes. If you have a Bank of America debit card, you can use ATMs at other banks' networks as well, though some may charge a fee.
Online banking and the mobile app let you pay bills, transfer money, deposit checks by taking a photo, and review your account from home. These services work on Saturday evening and Sunday when branches are closed. If you need to speak with someone, Bank of America offers phone support on Saturday, though hours vary by service type.
Transactions that require a branch visit
Some banking tasks can only happen in person at a branch. These include opening a new account, explore for a loan or credit card, getting a cashier's check, and discussing complex account issues with a banker. If you need to do any of these on Saturday, you must visit during branch hours.
If your branch closes at 1 p.m. and you cannot make it by then, you may be able to schedule an appointment for a weekday evening or early morning. Call your branch to ask about appointment availability, or use the mobile app to request a callback from a banker.
Weekend banking when your branch is far away
If you do not have a Bank of America branch nearby that is open on Saturday, or if you cannot reach one before closing time, you have other options. Many Bank of America branches in shopping centers or downtown areas stay open later than 1 p.m. on Saturday — some until 3 p.m. — so searching for branches in different neighborhoods may find one with hours that work for you.
You can also visit any Bank of America branch, not just your primary one. If a branch closer to where you are on Saturday has later hours, you can go there instead. Use the branch locator to compare hours across multiple locations in your area.
Holiday and special hours
Bank of America may have different hours on holiday weekends. For example, if a federal holiday falls on a Monday, some branches may close on Saturday or have reduced hours. Before planning a Saturday visit around a holiday weekend, check the branch locator tool or call ahead to confirm the branch will be open.
During major holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day, most branches close entirely. The website and app show holiday closures, so you will know in advance if your branch will be closed.
