🎥 Making a Mobile Deposit

Step-by-step instructions

  • Sign in to your Snap! Spend account on a mobile browser. 

  • Click the blue icon in the bottom left-hand corner. 

  • Select Deposit.

  • Enter the check amount.

  • Make sure the amount entered matches the amount on your check. Note: Check the daily deposit limit on the mobile deposit form to make sure the check amount can be accepted.

  • Endorse the back of the check with "For mobile deposit only at Thread Bank" and your signature.

  • Turn your phone sideways, and read the onscreen prompts to ensure the check can be captured correctly.

  • Tap I'm ready to capture. 

For best results: 

  • Use a mobile device or smartphone
  • Place the check on a dark, plain surface with good lighting
  • Position the camera directly over the check (not angled)
  • Center the check on the screen and be sure all four corners are visible on your screen

 

 

  1. Make sure your deposit information is correct, and then select Deposit.

  2. You’ll get an on-screen confirmation that your mobile deposit has been recorded. You will be able to see it under Pending Transactions with the status of Processing.

  3. After your deposit, we recommend keeping the check secure for 5 days before tearing it up.

  4. Once the deposit has settled, the transaction will appear in the Settled Transactions section.
