Mobile check deposits are a convenient way to deposit paper checks into your savings or checking account without stepping out. They help you save time by allowing you to deposit checks remotely, irrespective of your time and location. Mobile check deposit requires you to take a picture of the check, both front, and back, with your mobile phone and deposit it using an app. Here are a few key points that you must remember:

• Ensure checking your bank’s mobile check deposit limit and guidelines.
• Keep your check ready for deposit. While you don’t have to run to the bank or ATM, you still must sign both sides of the check and ensure all the information is correct.
• Log in to your mobile banking app, search for the check deposit option, select the account, enter the amount, upload a picture of both sides of your check, and voila!
