If you’re experiencing difficulties depositing your check using our mobile check deposit service, consider the following tips:
Check condition:
Carefully detach the check from your check book or any attached stub to ensure a clean check edge (i.e., no portion of the stub attached, etc.) and to avoid any damage to the check. Review the check to ensure that it is in good condition (e.g., no rips or tears, information is legible, etc.). Checks that are torn or defaced will not be accepted.
Ensure the check is in good condition (e.g. no rips or tears, information is legible, etc.)
Optimal scanning conditions:
Place the check on a plain, dark background in a well-lit area, ensuring that the edges fit within the “box” displayed in the image capture window. If the check has been previously folded, flatten the check before taking your photo.
Physical checks only:
Always take a photo of the physical (original) check. Capturing an image of a “check photo” will result in submission failure.
Check date:
Ensure the check is not future dated (post-dated).
Ineligible items:
The following items are not eligible for mobile check deposit:
Checks payable to any person or entity other than you and/or a joint owner on the account.
Checks with evidence of alternation or suspected fraud.
International checks (not drawn on a U.S. financial institution).
U.S. Savings Bonds, U.S. Postal Service Money Orders, remotely created checks, and cash.
After submitting your mobile check deposit request, retain the original check in a secure area for 14 days before you securely destroy it.
Although it does not happen often, resubmission of the check image may be required if issues arise during processing. In the event your mobile check deposit is unable to be processed, we’ll send you an email specifying the reason.
