What is a routing number?

In the US, banks and other financial institutions use routing numbers to identify themselves. They're made up of 9 digits, and sometimes called routing transit numbers, ABA routing numbers, or RTNs.

The Federal Reserve Banks need routing numbers to process Fedwire funds transfers. The ACH network also needs them to process electronic funds transfers – like direct deposits and bill payments.

  • Have payments like a salary or pension deposited into your account
  • Pay in a check
  • Make a wire transfer or ACH payment to someone in the US

Which BB&T routing number should you use?

Are all BB&T routing numbers the same?

Routing number you need will depend on the transaction. You might need one number to receive ACH transfers, and another to set up automated bill payments.

A bank might have a few different routing numbers, but they're never shared with other banks. This helps to make sure your payment ends up where it’s meant to.

Routing numbers, SWIFT codes, BIC and IBANs – what’s the the difference?

Banks love confusing financial jargon. Here’s a simple explanation.

You’ll need a few details to send or receive a wire transfer – either here in the US or internationally.

Routing numbers help identify banks when processing domestic ACH payments or wire transfers. But only in the United States. You don't need one to make a payment to your friend in France, for example.

SWIFT codes, like routing numbers, also identify banks and financial institutions. This time for international payments. They're sometimes known as BIC codes.

IBANs (international bank account numbers) identify individual bank accounts. They're issued by many banks in Europe, but banks elsewhere in the world are starting to adopt them as well.

There's a cheaper way to send money abroad.

Sending domestic payments with your bank can be easy enough. But international transfers are a different story. Thanks to high SWIFT and cross-border fees, they can be very expensive and time-consuming.

When you send money with us, you get the real exchange rate — just like the one you see on Google. Combined with the low, upfront fee we're known for. And if we're not the cheapest option, we'll let you know.
