What is a routing number?

A routing number (also called an ABA routing number or RTN) is a nine-digit code that identifies a U.S. financial institution. It's used to route ACH transfers, direct deposits, wire transfers, and check payments to the correct bank.

Where do I find my routing number?

Your routing number is printed in the bottom-left corner of every check, listed in your online banking app under account details, and printed on monthly statements. Many banks also use a different routing number for wire transfers — always confirm which one you need.

Is the routing number the same for everyone at the same bank?

Often it varies by the state where you opened your account. Large banks like Chase and Wells Fargo use 30+ different routing numbers across the U.S., while online banks and fintechs typically use one number nationwide.

Can I receive crypto with a routing number?

No. Routing numbers move U.S. dollars between bank accounts. To receive crypto, you need a wallet address. Anytime Capital gives you both an FDIC-insured cash account (with a routing and account number) and a crypto wallet — so you can move money in either form, instantly.
