The first set of numbers is your routing number, and the next set (on the right) is your specific checking account number. In between is a symbol (that looks like a vertical dash with a colon).

Go Online
Log into your account and click the last four digits of your account number. Your routing number will appear above your account information. You can also use search at the top of the screen "routing number" to find the correct routing number for your account.

Use the App
Access your account through Chase's mobile app. Press Show details under Account Details to view your routing (and account) number.

Call Customer Service
As a last resort, if you don't have online checking or a check handy, call Chase customer support at 800-935-9935. After you verify a few details to identify yourself, a representative will be able to confirm your account's routing number over the phone.

Which Chase Routing Number Should You Use?

You need your routing number for many common banking activities, including:

• Making ACH payments
  
• Setting up direct deposit
  
• Receiving benefits from the government, including tax refunds

Chase Routing Numbers for Wire Transfers

Wire transfers are a faster way to send money than an ACH transfer. But Chase uses different routing numbers for wire transfers.

• Receiving wires
  If you plan to receive money by wire, you will need to provide your bank account information to the person sending. The Chase routing number for wires is 021000021.

  NOTE: This is a different routing number than the one at the bottom of your checks.

• Sending wires
  In order to send wires, you can do it from your Chase web account or visit a branch. You'll need to provide:

To Make an International Transfer
Use the Chase SWIFT code CHASUS33.

SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication) codes are the international equivalents of the US routing numbers. They direct the money to the correct bank for international transfers.

You'll also need the following information:

• The name of your recipient
  
• The name, address, and phone number of the receiving bank
  
• The recipient's account number
  
• The SWIFT Code of your bank and the bank you are sending to
  
• Currency being sent

What is a Bank Routing Number Exactly?

Also called routing transit number (RTN) or American Bankers Association (ABA) number, this 9 digit number is essentially an ID for the financial institution assigned by the ABA.

When you deposit a check or send money to other bank accounts, the routing number will tell the bank where this is to be processed. Large banks, like Chase, will have multiple routing numbers serving each region and/or task.

Is there a routing number on your debit or credit card?

Although your debit card is associated with a bank account, you do not use a routing number for debit card transactions. Routing numbers are only used for transfers directly between bank accounts.

Likewise, credit cards do not have routing numbers since they are not directly linked to any bank account. When you pay your card online, you may need to use your bank account routing number to set up the link between your credit card account and checking account, like you would for any other bill.

Bottom Line

You'll likely need your Chase routing number when managing your finances. Keep it handy should you need to set up a direct deposit, automatic payment, or wire transfer.
