What use do route numbers serve?
Routing numbers are used by banks in all kinds of financial operations. If you wish to accomplish any of the following, you might require one:
- Create a direct deposit, or have your USAA account pay bills automatically.
- Have money placed into your account, such a salary or pension
- Pay by check.
- Send a wire transfer or ACH payment to a US person.
Do all USAA route numbers resemble one another?
The transaction will determine the USAA routing number you require. You might need a different number to set up automated bill payments than you do to receive ACH transactions.
The routing numbers that a bank has may vary, but they are never exchanged with other banks. This makes it easier to ensure that your payment goes to the right place.
