Your account number appears in three places in the Chase mobile app
Open the Chase app and tap Accounts at the bottom of the screen. Select the checking account you want. On the account details page, your account number is displayed under the account name — it's the string of digits after "Account ending in" or shown in full depending on your view settings.
If you don't see it when ready, scroll down on that account page. Chase also shows your account number in the Account Details section, which you can access by tapping the three dots or settings icon on that same screen. A third location is the Statements tab — your account number appears at the top of any statement you read or view.
The account number is always 10 digits for Chase checking accounts. It's different from your routing number (which is 9 digits and identifies Chase as your bank) and different from your card number if you have a Chase debit card linked to the account.
Key Takeaways
- Your Chase checking account number is visible on the main account details page in the app under the account name.
- You can also find it in the Account Details section, accessible through the settings menu on your account page.
- Statements show your account number at the top, whether you view them in the app or read them as a PDF.
- Chase checking account numbers are always 10 digits and are separate from your routing number and debit card number.
What to do if the account number is hidden or not showing
Chase sometimes masks your full account number for security reasons, showing only the last four digits by default. If you see "Account ending in 1234" but need the full number, tap on that line or the account card itself — the app usually reveals the complete number when you select it.
If the full number still doesn't appear, sign out of the app completely and sign back in. Close the app entirely (not just minimize it) and reopen it. If you're using an older version of the Chase app, update it through your phone's app store — outdated versions sometimes have display glitches.
On rare occasions, the app may not load account details properly due to a connection issue. Switch from Wi-Fi to mobile data or vice versa, or wait a few minutes and try again. If nothing works, you can call Chase customer service at the number on the back of your debit card, and they'll read your account number to you over the phone.
Why you need your account number and when to use it
Your account number is required when you set up direct deposit, arrange a wire transfer, or authorize an automatic payment from your checking account. Employers need it to deposit your paycheck. Utilities, insurance companies, and loan servicers need it to pull payments directly from your account.
You'll also need it if you're transferring money between your own accounts at different banks, setting up a payment through a third-party service, or providing proof of your account to a financial advisor or accountant. Some online services ask for it during account verification.
Never share your account number with someone who contacts you unsolicited — legitimate companies already have it or will ask you to provide it through their official website or app, not through email or phone calls you didn't initiate.
The difference between account number, routing number, and card number
Your account number identifies your specific checking account at Chase. Your routing number identifies Chase Bank itself — all Chase customers have the same routing number for their region (usually 021000021 for most of the United States). Your debit card number is the 16-digit number on your physical card and is tied to your account but is not the same as your account number.
When you set up direct deposit, you provide both your account number and routing number together. When you make a purchase with your debit card, the merchant sees your card number, not your account number. If your debit card is lost or stolen, your account number stays the same — only the card number changes when you get a replacement card.
Finding your account number on paper statements and online
If you prefer to view statements on a computer instead of the app, log into Chase.com, go to Accounts, select your checking account, and click Statements. Your account number appears at the top of the statement PDF or on the web view. You can also read statements as PDFs and save them — the account number will be printed on every one.
If you still receive paper statements in the mail, your account number is printed in the top right corner of the statement, usually near the statement date. It's also listed on any checks you ordered from Chase — the account number is the middle set of numbers printed at the bottom of the check, between the routing number on the left and the check number on the right.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to share my account number?
Your account number alone cannot be used to withdraw money or make purchases — someone would also need your routing number and authorization. It's safe to share your account number with your employer, your bank, or a company you're paying intentionally. Never share it with someone who calls or emails you unexpectedly claiming to be from your bank.
What if I can't remember my Chase login?
Go to Chase.com or open the app and tap "Forgot username or password?" You'll be asked to verify your identity using your Social Security number, date of birth, and other information. Chase will then send you a reset link via email or text. If you can't verify your identity online, call the number on the back of your debit card to reset your login over the phone.
Can I change my account number?
No, your account number is permanent and cannot be changed. If you're concerned about fraud or unauthorized access, contact Chase when ready, but changing the number itself is not an option. You can close the account and open a new one, which would give you a new account number, but this disrupts direct deposits and automatic payments.
Do I need my account number to use mobile payment apps like Venmo or PayPal?
No. When you link your Chase checking account to a payment app, you log in with your Chase username and password, and Chase handles the connection behind the scenes. The app never sees your account number directly. You only need your account number when linking your account to a service that doesn't have a direct integration with Chase.
