To deposit money, you generally need an account number and identification. For bank deposits, either in person or at an ATM, bring your debit card or a deposit slip along with the cash or check you wish to deposit. If you're depositing into someone else's account, you might need their account information. For mobile deposits, use your bank’s app to take a photograph of the check, ensuring you sign it and clearly mark it for mobile deposit only.
