Three groups of numbers.

Each one has a different job.

Routing number

A nine-digit code that identifies the bank or credit union that holds your account. It is also called an RTN or an ABA routing number.

Account number

It identifies your account among all the accounts at that bank. It is the group between the routing number and the check number. Keep it private.

Check number

The number of that check. It follows the account number at the bottom of the check.
