How to Deposit a Check

You can deposit a check into your account just as you would with any other bank. Make sure that you have endorsed the check by signing your name on the back.

Before you start

All checks are deposited via photo check deposit, by capturing an image of both the front and back of the check and uploading it to the Rho application. Once captured, Rho validates the check and transfers the money into the specified account. Checks settle in 3 business days after the check is uploaded, subject to risk-based monitoring (generally up to 6-7 business days).

To deposit a check via Remote Deposit Capture, you must properly endorse it in one of two ways:

Printed/live copy checks must be endorsed with a wet signature on the back and must state “for mobile deposit only.”

Digital copy checks must be  typed/written/stamped on the back with the following information:

    1. "Pay to the order of Webster Bank N.A.”
    2. “For Mobile Deposit Only”
    3. Your company name ([company name here])
    4. Rho routing number (021913655)
    5. Last 4 digits of your checking account number
    6. Current date (today is [date])

To ensure there are no delays depositing funds, all check images should be:

  • High Resolution
  • Horizontally Oriented
  • Against a dark, contrasting background
  • Showing all 4 corners of check

Check deposits in excess of $15,000.00 in one business day may be subject to additional screening and delays in settlement.

Upload an image of your check

There are two ways to upload the check:

1. Upload from your device

If you do not have a camera on your computer, or have already captured the front or back of the check image in .jpg or .png format, click the Upload An Image button. An open dialog window displays, allowing you to navigate to the location where the check image is stored, so you can select it. Once selected, the image is uploaded to the Rho application.

2. Take a Picture

To activate the default camera for your computer and capture the image of the check, click the Take a Picture button.

Center the check in the window, and click the Red button to capture the check image. If the image is accurate and visible, click Done. The image is uploaded to the Rho application.

Note: If you're having issues uploading a check please contact us at [email protected] and someone will assist you.

Once the images of the front and back of the check are uploaded, click the Continue button. The check details page is displayed.
