What is a Routing Number?

A routing number, also known as an ABA (American Bankers Association) routing transit number, is a nine-digit code that identifies financial institutions in the United States. Its primary purpose is to ensure that funds are transferred to and from the correct bank or credit union.

Without the correct routing number, your transaction could be delayed, rejected, or even sent to the wrong place. The system relies on these unique codes to maintain order and security in the vast network of financial transfers. For more information on how these numbers work, you can refer to the Federal Reserve's website.
