INSTALL YOUR BANK’S APP

Download your bank’s official app from the App Store or Google Play. Log in with your account credentials.

OPEN MOBILE DEPOSIT

In the app, look for “Deposit Checks” or “Mobile Deposit.” Enter the check amount.

TAKE PHOTOS OF THE CHECK

Use your phone’s camera to capture the front and back of the check. Make sure the images are sharp, well‑lit, and within the app’s guidelines.

CONFIRM AND SUBMIT

Review the details and tap “Deposit.” You’ll receive a confirmation message. Funds usually appear within 1–2 business days.
