  • Sign/Endorse the back of your check as follows:

    • CCCU Mobile Deposit Only

    • Account Number

  • When prompted for the amount, carefully enter the check amount to ensure it matches the amount written on your check

  • Flatten folded or crumpled checks before taking your photos

  • Keep the check within the viewfinder on the camera screen when capturing your photo. (Try not to get too much of the areas surrounding the check)

  • Take the photos of your check in a well-lit area

  • Place the check on a solid dark background before taking the photo of it

  • Keep your phone flat and steady above the check when taking your photos

  • Hold the camera as square to the check as possible to reduce corner to corner skew

  • No shadows across the check

  • All four corners are visible

  • Check is not blurry

  • The MICR line (numbers on the bottom of the check) is readable
