Your checking account number appears in four places on a Chase statement or card

Your checking account number is a nine-digit code that identifies your specific account at Chase. You can find it on a paper statement, online in your Chase account, on a debit card, or by calling Chase directly. The fastest route is usually your most recent statement or your online account dashboard — both show it in seconds.

The account number is different from your routing number (which identifies Chase as the bank) and different from your debit card number. You will need the account number when you set up direct deposit, arrange wire transfers, or give payment instructions to an employer or creditor.

Key Takeaways

  • Your account number appears at the bottom left of every Chase checking statement, printed as a nine-digit code after the routing number.
  • Log into your Chase online account or mobile app and look for "Account Details" or "Account Information" to see your account number without waiting for mail.
  • The account number is printed on the bottom of your Chase debit card in the same location as the routing number, though the card number itself is different.
  • Call Chase at the number on the back of your debit card or statement and a representative can read your account number to you over the phone.

Finding your account number on a paper statement

Open any Chase checking statement you have received in the mail. Look at the bottom left corner of the first page. You will see a series of numbers printed in a special font — this is called MICR encoding. The account number is the nine-digit code that appears after a shorter routing number.

The format looks like this: the routing number (9 digits), then a colon or space, then your account number (9 digits). If you have multiple Chase accounts, each one has its own unique account number, so check that you are looking at the statement for the account you need.

If you no longer have a statement, you can request one by mail or contact Chase to have a copy sent to you, though this takes several business days.

Checking your account number online or in the mobile app

Log into your Chase account at chase.com or open the Chase mobile app on your phone. Navigate to the account you want — if you have multiple accounts, make sure you select the checking account, not savings or credit card.

Look for a section labeled "Account Details," "Account Information," or "Account Settings." The account number will be displayed there in full. Some versions of the app show it under a "View Account Details" link. If you cannot find it, you can also look at the "Statements" section and open any recent statement — the account number will be visible there as well.

This method works when ready and does not require you to have a physical statement on hand.

Locating the account number on your debit card

Look at the bottom of your Chase debit card. You will see numbers printed in the MICR font (the same special font used on statements). The account number is the nine-digit code that appears after the routing number. This is the same account number that appears on your statement.

Do not confuse this with the 16-digit card number printed on the front of the card — that is your debit card number, not your account number. The account number is only on the bottom of the card.

Calling Chase to get your account number

Call the customer service number on the back of your debit card or on a recent statement. Have your card or statement ready so you can provide your name and verify your identity. A representative will confirm your identity and read your account number to you.

Chase customer service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Wait times vary depending on the time of day you call, but you should reach someone within a few minutes during business hours. This method works if you have lost your statement and do not have online access.

What to do if you cannot locate your account number

If you have tried the methods above and still cannot find your account number, the fastest option is to log into your online account or call Chase directly. You do not need to visit a branch in person — Chase can provide the information over the phone or through your online account.

If you are setting up direct deposit or making a payment and need the account number when ready, call Chase rather than waiting for a statement to arrive. Have your debit card or other identifying information ready so you can verify your identity quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my account number the same as my debit card number?

No. Your debit card number is the 16-digit number on the front of your card. Your account number is a nine-digit code printed at the bottom of the card in MICR font. They are different numbers that serve different purposes.

Can I find my account number without logging into Chase online?

Yes. Check the bottom of your debit card, look at a paper statement, or call Chase at the number on the back of your card. You do not need online access to find this information.

What is the routing number, and how is it different from my account number?

Your routing number identifies Chase Bank as the institution — it is the same for all Chase customers in your region. Your account number identifies your specific account. Both appear together at the bottom of your statement and debit card.

Do I need my account number to use my debit card at a store or ATM?

No. You only need your account number for things like setting up direct deposit, arranging wire transfers, or giving payment instructions to employers or creditors. You do not need it for everyday debit card use.

If I have multiple Chase accounts, do they all have the same account number?

No. Each account — whether checking, savings, or money market — has its own unique nine-digit account number. Make sure you are looking at the statement or account details for the specific account you need.
