American Bankers Association Number

A American Bankers Association Number is a nine-digit code that serves as a unique identifier for banks and credit unions in the U.S. Think of it as a “mailbox label” for the financial system: whenever money moves electronically—through ACH transfers, direct deposits, or wire payments—the code ensures it reaches the intended bank without mistakes. By giving each institution its own distinct marker, ABA numbers help keep electronic transactions organized and dependable.
