Money in — how to make deposits

There are many ways to add money to your account:

• ATM: Using a Wells Fargo ATM is a convenient, safe and easy way to deposit money into checking accounts and is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
• Wells Fargo Banking Locations: Visit any Wells Fargo banking location to make your deposit during bank business hours
• Direct Deposit: Setting up Direct Deposit of your paycheck or other income into your account is free, easy, quick and secure — giving you the peace of mind that your money is readily available on payday
• Transfers: You can transfer money to your checking account from other Wells Fargo accounts, at ATMs, online or at a banking location

 

 Direct Deposit is a secure and convenient way to get paid. When you sign up for Direct Deposit, instead of receiving a paper check, your paycheck or other recurring income is electronically deposited into your checking account. Direct Deposit is also free of charge. Here are some key benefits:

It’s convenient

• You don’t have to go to the bank to deposit your paycheck
• Your money is automatically deposited into your account on time, every payday
• It’s available for many income sources, including Social Security and retirement plans

It’s fast

• You have immediate access to your money on the day of deposit
  
  

It’s safe

• Never worry about checks getting lost, delayed or stolen

How to sign up
Provide your checking account information to your employer. Your employer will need to know your account number and routing number. You can find both of these numbers on the bottom of your check (see the illustration below).
