How to Add an External Bank Account to Capital One Checking Account
0Adding an external bank account to your Capital One checking account is a convenient way to transfer funds between different banks, set up direct deposits, or manage your finances across multiple institutions. This process can be completed using the Capital One mobile banking app or by logging into your account on the Capital One website.
To begin, launch the Capital One app on your mobile device. If you haven’t already installed it, you can download it from the App Store or Google Play. Once the app is open, sign in using your Capital One username and password. After logging in, go to your account dashboard and look for your checking account.
Tap on your account to open more options, then locate the menu for settings or account features—this is often found under your profile icon or within the account’s detail section. Look for an option labeled 'External Accounts' or 'Link External Account.' This section will allow you to add and manage accounts from other banks.
To add a new external account, follow the on-screen instructions and enter the required information: the routing number and account number of the external bank account. Depending on the external bank, you may be able to verify the account instantly through a secure login, or you might be asked to verify using small test deposits.
If verification by deposit is required, Capital One will send two small deposits to the external account, usually within 1–2 business days. You’ll need to log into your external bank, note the exact amounts deposited, and then return to the Capital One app to confirm those amounts. Once verified, your external account will be linked and ready for transfers.
