How do I find my routing number on a check?

The routing number, also called an ABA routing number, can be found in multiple ways. It’s important to provide the correct routing number in payments and fund transfers. The fastest way to find your routing number is to look at the bottom of one of your personal checks. The routing number is the nine-digit number printed in the bottom left corner of each check. 

   

Where is the routing number on a check?

There are two ways to find your routing number in the U.S. Bank Mobile App.

The easiest way is to open the app and select U.S. Bank Smart Assistant® Then say, “What’s the routing number for my checking account?”

You can also find it by following these directions:

  1. Log into your account and select the desired account.
  2. Select the Account options link (below the available balance).
  3. Select Account information.
  4. You’ll see the last four digits of your account number which links to the full account number and the routing number.
