Finding your account number on the Truist app is a common task, and thankfully, it's quite straightforward once you know where to look. Let's get you started on this journey, shall we? This comprehensive guide will walk you through every step, ensuring you can access your account details quickly and securely.
Step 1: Are You Ready to Dive In? Let's Get Started with the Truist App!
First things first, make sure you have the Truist Mobile Banking App installed on your smartphone or tablet. If you haven't already, head over to your device's app store (Google Play Store for Android or Apple App Store for iOS) and search for "Truist Mobile Banking." Download and install the app. Once installed, locate the Truist icon on your home screen and tap to open it.
If you don't have an account or haven't registered for online banking, you'll need to do that first. This guide assumes you have an active Truist account and are already enrolled in their online/mobile banking services.

Step 2: Logging In – Your Secure Gateway
Security is paramount when dealing with your financial information.
2.1 Entering Your Credentials
Upon opening the app, you'll be prompted to log in. This typically involves:
QuickTip: Read again with fresh eyes.
- User ID: Enter the User ID you created during your Truist online banking enrollment.
- Password: Enter the corresponding password.
2.2 Biometric Login (If Enabled)
For a quicker and often more secure login, you might have enabled biometric authentication (Fingerprint ID or Face ID) on your device. If so, simply use your fingerprint or face scan when prompted. This can save you time and reduce the risk of someone else accessing your account.
Once you've successfully entered your credentials or used biometrics, tap "Log In" or the equivalent button.
Step 3: Navigating to Your Accounts Overview
After a successful login, you'll typically land on your Accounts Overview screen. This screen provides a summary of all your Truist accounts, including checking, savings, credit cards, loans, and investments.
3.1 Locating Your Desired Account
Scroll through the list of your accounts until you find the specific account for which you need the account number. For example, if you're looking for your checking account number, find the entry that says "Checking" or the name you've given that account.
Tip: Write down what you learned.
Step 4: Accessing Account Details – The Heart of the Matter
This is where you'll find the coveted account number!
4.1 Tapping on the Account
Tap directly on the account you're interested in. For instance, if you want your primary checking account number, tap on that specific checking account. This action will take you to a detailed view of that particular account.
4.2 Locating the Account Number
On the individual account details page, you'll see various pieces of information related to that account. Look for headings or labels such as:
- Account Number
- Full Account Number
- Details (you might need to tap on "Details" or "Show Details" to expand the view)
The account number will usually be displayed clearly. It's often shown as a series of digits, sometimes partially masked for security until you specifically choose to reveal it.
Tip: Reread slowly for better memory.
Step 5: Revealing the Full Account Number (If Masked)
For security reasons, Truist (like many other banks) may initially display only the last few digits of your account number.
5.1 Tapping to Reveal
If your account number is partially masked (e.g., "XXXXX1234"), you'll typically see an option to "Show Full Account Number," "Reveal," or an eye icon. Tap on this option to unmask the complete account number. You might be prompted to re-enter your password or use your biometric authentication for an added layer of security before the full number is displayed.
Step 6: Understanding and Using Your Account Number
Congratulations! You've successfully found your account number.
6.1 What Does Your Account Number Do?

- Do not write your account number on easily accessible items.
- Always verify the legitimacy of any request for your account information.
Step 7: Alternative Methods (Just in Case)
While the Truist app is the quickest way, here are other options to find your account number:
7.1 Check Your Bank Statements
Your monthly bank statements (paper or e-statements) will always list your full account number. You can usually access e-statements within the Truist app or on the Truist website.
7.2 Online Banking Website
Log in to your Truist account through a web browser on your computer. The process will be very similar to the app: navigate to your accounts, click on the specific account, and look for the account number in the details section.
