How do I find my ACH account or routing number?

Note: AdvicePay supports checking accounts only.

  • We don't support debiting funds from savings accounts. Using savings account information will result in a failed payment to your advisor. 
  • If paying with ACH and your bank requires an ID to pull funds from the account, please provide your bank with these numbers from Stripe, our payment processor to recognize the charge:

Stripe's ID information for making payments via ACH are: 4270465600 - Stripe Inc, and 1800948598 - Stripe Payments Company (provide both).

There are several ways to locate your correct account and routing numbers.

Check your Physical Check

If you have a paper check,, you can easily find both your account and routing numbers directly on your check.

As displayed below, your routing number is the 9-digit number is generally the first number at the bottom located between the two ⑆ symbols. Your account number is directly to its right and can range up to 17 digits long.

Log into your Online Banking

If you log into your online bank account, most banks allow you to find your account number easily - it's typically one of the first things you'll see.  However, it may require a little bit of searching to find your routing number.  Try to find some options in your online bank account that reference Account Details, Additional Details, etc. 

  • The number you're looking for will be exactly 9 digits long and may be referred to as a routing number, electronic ABA routing number, ACH routing number, or routing/transit number. They all mean the same thing, but some banks call them different things. 

Did you know? If you have your online banking login info handy, you can choose to quick link your checking account to make a payment on AdvicePay instead of manually entering the details! We support numerous major banks through linking this way via our integration with Stripe Connections. The only difference between linking and manual entry is that linking will automatically pull in your account and routing numbers when logging into your insitution.

Check your Bank's Website

Most banks have their routing numbers listed directly on their website, though some have different routing numbers for different bank locations. This makes it important to double-check using your bank's routing number registry. While this method won't help you find your account number, it's a great way to find the ever-elusive routing number.
