Where to find your account number on a Chase statement or card
Your Chase checking account number is printed on the bottom left of every check you receive, and on your monthly statement. On a check, it appears between two sets of numbers — the routing number comes first (nine digits), then your account number (usually 10 to 12 digits), then the check number on the right.
If you have your statement, look at the top right corner of the first page. You will see "Account Number" followed by your number, sometimes with the last four digits shown in full and the rest replaced with asterisks for security.
Your debit card does not print the account number on its face, so do not look there. The number on your card is your card number, which is different from your account number.
Key Takeaways
- Your account number appears on the bottom of every check you write, between the routing number and the check number.
- Monthly statements show your full account number in the top right corner of the first page.
- Your debit card number is not the same as your account number — the account number is what you need for transfers and bill payments.
- Chase online banking and the mobile app both display your account number in the account details section.
Viewing your account number in Chase online banking
Log into your Chase account at chase.com using your username and password. Once you are logged in, select the checking account you want information about from the list on the left side of the screen.
At the top of the account page, you will see account details. Click on "Account Details" or the account name itself — the full account number will appear. Some versions of the site show it directly; others require you to click a link that says "Show Account Number" or similar.
If you cannot find it on the main account page, look for a menu option labeled "Account Information" or "Account Settings." The account number is always in one of these places.
Finding it in the Chase mobile app
Open the Chase mobile app and tap the checking account you need. At the bottom of the account summary, you will see a section with account details. Tap "Account Number" or "More Details" to reveal the full number.
Some versions of the app show the account number directly on the account card without tapping. If you do not see it when ready, scroll down on the account page — it is usually near the routing number.
What to do if you cannot find a statement or access online banking
If you do not have a recent statement and cannot log into online banking, you can call Chase customer service at the number on the back of your debit card. Have your card and a form of identification ready. A representative can read your account number to you over the phone.
You can also visit a Chase branch in person with your debit card and ID. A teller can print your account number for you or write it down on a piece of paper.
If you have not yet received your first statement and do not have checks, the online banking route is fastest — you can set up your account and view the number within minutes of opening the account.
Why you need your account number and when to use it
Your account number is required for setting up direct deposit at work, receiving wire transfers, paying bills through your bank's bill pay service, and transferring money between your own accounts at Chase or other banks. It is also what you provide when someone needs to send you money directly to your checking account.
Do not share your full account number with people you do not trust. If someone asks for it unsolicited — especially by email or phone — verify that they work for Chase by calling the number on your debit card yourself rather than using a number they provided.
The difference between your account number and other numbers on your account
Chase uses several numbers that can be confused with each other. Your routing number (nine digits) identifies Chase as your bank and the specific branch. Your account number (10 to 12 digits) identifies your specific checking account. Your debit card number (16 digits) is tied to your account but is not the same as your account number.
When someone asks for your account number, they want the 10 to 12 digit number, not your card number. If you are unsure which number to provide, ask the person or organization requesting it to clarify — they can tell you whether they need your account number or card number.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my account number the same as my debit card number?
No. Your debit card number has 16 digits and is printed on the front of your card. Your account number has 10 to 12 digits and appears on checks and statements. They are linked to the same account but are different numbers used for different purposes.
Can I find my account number on my debit card?
No, your debit card shows your card number, not your account number. To find your account number, check a statement, look at a check, or log into online banking.
What if I lost my checks and do not have online banking set up yet?
Call Chase at the number on your debit card or visit a branch with your card and ID. A representative can provide your account number when ready.
Do I need my account number to use my debit card at a store?
No. Your debit card number is what you need for purchases. Your account number is for transfers, direct deposit, and bill payments — not for everyday card use.
Is it safe to write my account number down?
Yes, as long as you keep it in a find place like a locked drawer or password-protected document. Do not email it to yourself or leave it where others can see it. Share it only with people or organizations you trust.
