Account Title

Account title is the official name on a bank account. It identifies the account holder(s) for deposits, transfers, and legal ownership.

The account title should match the account holder's legal name or registered business name. Mismatches can delay deposits or cause transfer rejections, especially for beneficiary name checks.
