Free Routing Number Lookup Tool — Verify Before You Wire

You're about to wire $5,000. You double-check the routing number on the form. Nine digits. Looks right. But is it right?
One wrong digit and your money could end up delayed, returned, or—worse—sent somewhere you didn't intend. Banks don't always catch these errors before processing. By the time you realize something's off, you're dealing with fees, paperwork, and phone calls.
There's a faster way to verify.
Verify Any Routing Number in Seconds
We built a free Routing Number Lookup tool that validates any US bank routing number instantly. Enter nine digits and get confirmation that the number is real—plus the bank's name and location.
No signup. No limits. No fees.
What You Get
When you look up a routing number, you'll see:
- Validation status — Is this a real, valid routing number?
- Bank name — Which financial institution does it belong to?
- Location — City and state where the bank is based
The tool validates using the official ABA checksum algorithm—the same math banks use internally. This catches typos and invalid numbers before you ever submit that transfer form.
Beyond Wire Transfers
Routing numbers show up everywhere in finance:
- Setting up direct deposit at a new job? You'll need to provide one. Use our tool to confirm it's correct before handing it to HR.
- Paying bills online? Many services ask for routing numbers. Verify before you submit.
- Received a check and want to confirm who it's from? Look up the routing number printed on the bottom left.
