Mobile Deposit is the most convenient way to deposit a check into your account! And with our new Mobile Banking apps, it's better than ever.

To ensure your check deposit is approved, it should be endorsed as “For Mobile Deposit Only”, the last four digits of your account number, and signed by you.

If a mobile deposit comes through without this endorsement, it will be returned by our system.
