First Mobile Deposit · 首次手机存支票
basicHi, I received a check and I'd like to deposit it using my phone. I've never done a mobile deposit before. Can you walk me through it?
你好,我收到一张支票想用手机存入。我从来没用过手机存款。你能教我怎么操作吗?
💡 纸质支票在美国仍然非常常见,尤其是退税、房租押金退还、个人赠礼等场景。手机存款(mobile deposit)已经是主流方式,大部分人不再跑银行柜台。
Of course! First, make sure you endorse the check — sign the back and write 'For mobile deposit only.' Then open our app, tap 'Deposit,' and take a photo of the front and back.
当然!首先,确保在支票背面签名并写上'For mobile deposit only'。然后打开我们的App,点'存款',拍下支票正反面的照片。
Got it. How long until the funds are available in my account?
明白了。资金多久能到账?
💡 手机存款的到账时间取决于金额和账户历史。小额支票通常次日到账,大额支票可能需要2-5个工作日。银行可能先释放一部分金额。
For most checks, the first $225 is available the next business day, and the rest clears within two business days. If it's a large check, it might take up to five days for the full amount.
大部分支票,前225美元下一个工作日就能到账,剩余金额两个工作日内到。如果是大额支票,全额到账可能需要五天。
What should I do with the paper check after I deposit it?
存完之后纸质支票怎么处理?
💡 美国银行通常建议手机存款后保留支票14天,确认资金到账后再销毁。不要把同一张支票存两次,这可能构成欺诈。
Hold onto it for at least 14 days until the deposit is confirmed. After that, you can shred it. And please don't deposit the same check at a branch or ATM — that would cause a duplicate deposit.
至少保留14天直到存款确认。之后可以碎掉。请不要再去柜台或ATM存同一张支票——那会造成重复存款。
Troubleshooting Mobile Deposit · 手机存款问题排查
intermediateI tried to do a mobile deposit but the app keeps saying 'image not readable.' I've taken the photo three times. What am I doing wrong?
我试了手机存款但App一直说'图片无法识别'。我已经拍了三次照片了。我哪里做错了?
💡 手机存款拍照失败是常见问题。最常见的原因是光线不足、背景不够平坦、或者支票没有完全在取景框内。
That's a common issue. Make sure you're on a dark, flat surface with good lighting. Hold your phone directly over the check — no angles. And make sure the entire check is within the frame with a little space around the edges.
这是常见问题。确保把支票放在深色平坦的桌面上,光线充足。手机直接在支票正上方——不要倾斜。确保整张支票在取景框内,边缘留一点空间。
Okay, that worked! But now it says my daily mobile deposit limit is $2,500 and my check is for $3,000. What are my options?
好的,成功了!但现在说我每日手机存款限额是2500美元,而我的支票是3000美元。我该怎么办?
💡 美国银行对手机存款通常设有每日和每月限额,新账户限额可能更低。限额可以通过联系银行申请提高。
I can submit a request to increase your mobile deposit limit. In the meantime, you could deposit this check at an ATM or branch — there's no limit for in-person deposits. The limit increase usually takes 24 hours to process.
我可以提交申请提高您的手机存款限额。同时,您可以去ATM或柜台存这张支票——柜台存款没有限额。限额提高通常24小时内处理完。
If I deposit it at the ATM, will it clear faster than mobile deposit?
如果去ATM存,会比手机存款到账更快吗?
💡 ATM存款和手机存款到账时间基本相同。但如果在银行营业时间内去柜台存,到账可能更快,因为柜员可以当场处理。
The clearing time is about the same — one to two business days. But if you come to a branch during banking hours, a teller can verify the check right away, which sometimes speeds things up. For a $3,000 check, I'd recommend the branch.
到账时间差不多——一到两个工作日。但如果在营业时间来柜台,柜员可以当场验证支票,有时能加快处理。三千美元的支票,我建议去柜台。
