with their bank - Recipient's account number and account type
- Recipient bank's wire transfer routing number

Here are the steps to set up your account:
- Sign into online banking portal

Which Bank of America Routing Number Should You Use?
For Any Domestic Money Transfer Activity Besides Wire Transfers:
Use the routing number for the bank where you opened your account.
For Domestic Wire Transfers:
Use the routing number 026009593.
For International Wire Transfers:
Use the routing number 026009593 plus the correct Bank of America SWIFT code.
- For U.S. dollars, use BOFAUS3N.
- For foreign currency, use BOFAUS6S
- If you are unsure which currency you are receiving, use BOFAUS3N.
Although your debit card is associated with a bank account, you do not use a routing number for debit card transactions. Routing numbers are only used for transfers directly between bank accounts.
Likewise, credit cards do not have routing numbers since they are not directly linked to any bank account. When you pay your credit card online, you may need to use your bank account routing number to set up the link between your credit card account and checking account, like you would for any other bill.
Bottom Line
You'll likely need your Bank of America routing number when managing your finances. Keep it handy should you need to set up a direct deposit, automatic payment, or wire transfer.
