How to Find Your FirstBank Account Number

To transfer money between accounts, you'll need your bank account number in addition to your routing number. Here are three ways to find your FirstBank account number:
Use a Check
You can find your routing and account number on the checks corresponding to your checking account. The routing number is the 9-digit code on the bottom left of the check. The account number is the long series of digits beside it.
Go Online
- Log into your FirstBank account portal online.
- Find the Accounts page, then navigate to History, and Statements and Reports.
- Click into your most recent statement. It will list your account and routing number information.
Call Customer Service
If you don't have online checking or a check handy, call FirstBank customer service at 1-800-964-3444, available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
After you provide a few details to identify yourself, a representative will be able to walk you through locating your account information.
Making Domestic/International Wire Transfers
Wire transfers are a faster way to send money than an ACH transfer, though you'll likely pay a fee.
To wire funds with a personal FirstBank bank account, you must visit a local FirstBank branch and sign a Wire Transfer Agreement form. Once you have submitted the form in person, you may be able to initiate additional transfers on the phone.
You'll use the same routing number for both domestic and international wires: 107005047.
You'll also need:
- The receiving bank's ABA number (routing number) and name of the bank
- Beneficiary (person to whom the wire is being sent)
- Account number of beneficiary
- City and state of the receiving bank
- Driver's license to show proof of ID
Incoming Domestic Wire: $10
Outgoing Domestic Wire: $30
Incoming International Wire: $10
Outgoing International Wire: $45
Receiving Domestic/International Wires
- FirstBank's Routing Number: 107005047
- FirstBank's Address:
10403 West Colfax Avenue
Lakewood, CO 80215 - Your name and 10-digit account number
- Any specific instructions for the money
Do Debit/Credit Cards Have Routing Numbers?
Your debit card is associated with a bank account, but 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. But you may use your bank account routing number to set up the link between your credit card account and checking account to make an online payment.
Bottom Line
You'll likely need your FirstBank routing number when managing your finances. Keep it handy should you need to set up a direct deposit, automatic payment, or wire transfer.
