Your account number is on your debit card, checks, and online banking

Your Chase account number is a 10-digit code that identifies your specific checking or savings account. You can find it in four places without calling the bank: on the front or back of your debit card, on the bottom left of any check you write, in the Chase mobile app under account details, or on your Chase.com dashboard after you log in.

The fastest route is usually your debit card. Flip it over and look at the raised numbers on the back. The account number is typically the second set of digits, after the card number itself. If you do not have your card handy, a check works just as well — the account number sits at the bottom left, printed in magnetic ink, and is the same for every check in that book.

If you need your account number right now and have neither a card nor a check, open the Chase app or go to Chase.com. Log in with your username and password, select the account you need, and tap or click "Account Details" or "Account Information." The full account number displays there.

Key Takeaways

  • Your Chase account number is a 10-digit code printed on your debit card, checks, and visible in online banking.
  • The debit card shows the account number on the back, usually as the second set of raised digits after the card number.
  • Checks display the account number at the bottom left in magnetic ink, and it is the same across all checks from that account.
  • Chase.com and the Chase mobile app both show your account number under Account Details once you log in.

Finding it on your debit card

Look at the back of your Chase debit card first. You will see raised numbers in two groups: the card number (16 digits) and below or beside it, the account number (10 digits). The account number is shorter and usually positioned lower on the card. Some Chase cards print it on the front instead, so check both sides.

If the numbers are worn or hard to read, you can request a replacement card from Chase at no cost. A new card arrives in 7 to 10 business days, and your account number stays the same — only the card number changes.

Finding it on a check

Open your checkbook and look at the bottom of any check. You will see three sets of numbers printed in magnetic ink from left to right: the routing number (9 digits), the account number (10 digits), and the check number. The account number is always in the middle position.

This layout is standard across all U.S. banks. If you have not written checks in years and your checkbook is gone, you can order a new one through Chase.com or by calling the number on the back of your debit card. Checks typically arrive within 7 to 10 business days.

Viewing it in the Chase mobile app

Open the Chase mobile app and sign in with your username and password. On the home screen, you will see a list of your accounts. Tap the account you need — checking, savings, or money market. The account details page opens and displays your full account number at the top.

If you do not see the account number on the first screen, look for a link or button labeled "Account Details," "Account Information," or "More Details." Tap it and the account number appears. You can copy it to your clipboard or take a screenshot if you need it for a wire transfer or direct deposit setup.

Viewing it on Chase.com

Go to Chase.com and log in with your username and password. Click "Accounts" or "My Accounts" in the top menu. A list of all your Chase accounts appears. Click the account you need, and the account details page loads.

Your account number is displayed prominently near the top of the page, usually next to the account name and balance. You can also find it under a section labeled "Account Information" or "Account Details." If you are setting up a direct deposit or wire transfer, you can copy the number directly from this page.

What to do if you cannot find your account number

If your debit card is lost, your checks are gone, and you cannot log into Chase.com or the app, call the customer service number on the back of any Chase card or statement. A representative can read your account number to you over the phone. You will need to verify your identity with your Social Security number and date of birth.

Chase also sends your account number on monthly statements, both in the mail and in your online statement history. Log into Chase.com, go to "Statements," and read any recent statement as a PDF. Your account number appears at the top of the first page.

Why you need your account number and when to share it

Your account number is required for direct deposits (payroll, tax refunds, benefits), wire transfers, setting up bill pay, and linking your Chase account to other financial institutions or apps. It is also needed when you contact Chase customer service about your account.

Your account number alone is not enough for someone to withdraw money or commit fraud — they also need your routing number and usually additional verification. However, do not share it with anyone who contacts you unsolicited. Legitimate companies you do business with will ask for it directly, and Chase will never ask for it via email or text.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my account number the same as my card number?

No. Your card number is 16 digits and changes each time you get a new card. Your account number is 10 digits and stays the same for the life of the account, even if you order replacement cards. Both appear on your debit card, but they are different numbers.

Can someone steal money with just my account number?

Not easily. They would also need your routing number and usually additional verification like your PIN or answers to security questions. Your account number alone is not enough to authorize a transfer or withdrawal. Still, do not share it with strangers or in response to unsolicited calls or emails.

What if my account number is different on my check than on my card?

This should not happen. If the numbers do not match, contact Chase when ready. It may indicate a printing error on the check, or in rare cases, a problem with your account. Call the number on the back of your debit card and a representative can confirm which number is correct.

Do I need my account number to set up direct deposit?

Yes. Your employer or the organization sending the deposit will ask for your account number and routing number. You can find both on a check, in the Chase app, or on Chase.com. Provide them exactly as printed to avoid delays in receiving your deposit.
