To deposit someone else's check into your Chase account, endorse the check on the back by signing it and writing 'For deposit only to account number XXXXXXXXXX.' Use Chase’s ATM or mobile app to deposit the check. If using the mobile app, simply take photos of the front and back of the check following the app’s instructions. Note, for amounts over a certain threshold or for non-standard situations, visiting a Chase branch might be necessary. Always ensure that the account holder is aware and approves of the deposit.
