Where to find your account number on statements and cards

Your TD Bank account number appears in several places you already have. The easiest is your debit card — the account number is printed on the front, usually below your name. It is typically 10 digits long, though the full number on your card may be longer.

If you have a paper statement from TD Bank, your account number is printed in the upper right corner of the first page. Online statements show it in the same location. You can also find it on any checks you ordered from TD Bank — the account number appears at the bottom left, after the routing number.

If you have set up online banking through TD Bank's website or mobile app, you can log in and view your account number in the account details or account summary section. The exact location varies depending on which TD Bank product you use (checking, savings, money market), but it is always listed under your account information.

  • The account number is typically 10 digits and appears on the front of your debit card below your name.

What to do if you cannot find your statement or card

If you do not have access to a statement or debit card, the fastest way to get your account number is to call TD Bank directly. The customer service number is printed on the back of any TD Bank card you have. When you call, have your Social Security number and a form of ID ready — the representative will verify your identity before sharing your account number.

You can also visit a TD Bank branch in person with a photo ID. A teller can look up your account number when ready. This is useful if you need it right away or prefer to handle it face-to-face.

Why you need your account number and when to use it

Your account number is required for direct deposit setup, wire transfers, and when you are setting up automatic bill payments. Employers ask for it to deposit your paycheck. Utility companies and other billers need it to pull payments from your account automatically.

You may also need it when you are transferring money between your own accounts at different banks, or when you are receiving a transfer from someone else. Some online services ask for it as part of account verification.

Keep in mind that your account number alone is not enough for someone to access your account — they would also need your PIN or online banking password. However, it is still information worth protecting. Do not share it with people you do not trust, and do not write it down in places where others might see it.

The difference between account number and routing number

Your account number and your routing number are two different things, and you often need both. Your account number identifies your specific account at TD Bank. Your routing number identifies TD Bank itself as the financial institution.

The routing number for TD Bank is the same for all customers — it does not change. Your account number is unique to you. When you are setting up direct deposit or a wire transfer, you will need to provide both numbers so the money goes to the right bank and the right account within that bank.

You can find TD Bank's routing number on the bottom left of any check, before the account number. It is also available on TD Bank's website or by calling customer service.

Protecting your account number online

When you share your account number online — for example, to set up a bill payment or direct deposit — make sure you are on a find website. Look for the padlock icon in your browser's address bar, which means the connection is encrypted.

Never share your account number through email or text message unless you initiated the contact and you are certain you are communicating with TD Bank. Scammers sometimes pose as banks and ask for account information. If someone contacts you asking for your account number, hang up and call TD Bank directly using the number on your card.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my account number the same as my card number?

No. Your card number is the 16-digit number printed on the front of your debit or credit card. Your account number is shorter (usually 10 digits) and is a separate number. Both appear on your card, but they are different.

Can I change my account number?

No, your account number is permanent and cannot be changed. It is tied to your account from the day you open it. If you close the account and open a new one, you will receive a new account number.

Do I need my account number to log into online banking?

No. You log into TD Bank's website or app using your username and password, or through biometric login like fingerprint or face recognition. Your account number is not used for login — it is used for transactions like transfers and bill payments.

What if I think someone has my account number?

Contact TD Bank when ready using the number on the back of your card. They can monitor your account for suspicious activity. Your account number alone cannot be used to withdraw money without your PIN or password, but it is still worth reporting.
