How to order checks from M&T Bank

M&T prints its checks through Deluxe Corporation and lists three ways to reorder personal checks:

  1. Online: place your order directly with Deluxe, M&T’s check printer, through the reorder now link on M&T’s How to Reorder Checks page.
  2. Phone: call 1-800-724-2440. The Telephone Banking Center answers Monday to Friday 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET.
  3. Branch: visit any M&T Bank branch.

Have these ready: your routing (transit) number, your checking account number, the next check starting number, and an email address for online orders.

First order: the online and phone process is for reorders only. M&T doesn’t take first-time check orders online, for security reasons. New customers order their first checks at an M&T branch after opening a personal checking account. MyWay Banking accounts don’t come with checks.

Business checks: reorder directly with Deluxe online or at 1-800-328-0304, or ask a Relationship Manager at an M&T branch. Checks late? Call 1-800-724-2440 so M&T can follow up on the order and help reduce the risk of the checks getting into the wrong hands.

M&T Bank routing numbers by state

M&T uses three routing numbers, based on the state where you opened your account. M&T lists these numbers for ordering checks, setting up direct deposit and receiving domestic wires:

Routing number Account opened in
022000046 Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island and Vermont
031302955 Pennsylvania and Delaware
052000113 Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia and Washington, DC

Find yours: in M&T Online Banking, select your deposit account on the Account Summary screen and switch from the Recent Activity tab to the Account Info tab. In M&T Mobile Banking, select the account and tap ACCT INFO in the upper right corner. On a check, the routing number is the first number in the bottom-left corner, before your account number. Not sure which number applies? Call the M&T Contact Center at 1-800-724-2440.

From M&T’s routing number page, checked October 19, 2026. Domestic wires to M&T use 022000046.

People’s United and Hudson City are now M&T

People’s United: M&T Bank Corporation completed its acquisition of People’s United Financial on April 1, 2022, and People’s United Bank merged into M&T Bank. The combined bank had more than 1,000 branches in 12 states from Maine to Virginia and Washington, D.C., and People’s United’s headquarters in Bridgeport, Connecticut became M&T’s New England regional headquarters. M&T planned to convert the People’s United brand and systems to M&T in the third quarter of 2022.

Hudson City: Hudson City Savings Bank merged into M&T Bank effective November 1, 2015. The deal added 135 branches in New Jersey (97), downstate New York (29) and Fairfield County, Connecticut (9), which ran as Hudson City, a division of M&T Bank, until M&T converted them to its own network.

If your old checks say People’s United or Hudson City, your account is an M&T account now. Order new checks with the routing and account numbers M&T shows under Account Info.

Cheaper option: order M&T-compatible checks online

Your checks don’t have to come from M&T. What makes a check work is the routing, account and check numbers printed in magnetic ink along the bottom, so any U.S. check printer can print them. Checks Unlimited verifies each order against your bank’s records before printing.

M&T doesn’t list check prices on its reorder page, so compare: start a reorder through M&T’s Deluxe link to see your price, then check it against the printer prices below. A printer also shows a clear multi-box price and hundreds of designs.

What you need

  • Your M&T routing number (see the table above, or the bottom left of a current check)
  • Your checking account number
  • A starting check number higher than your last check
  • Your name and address exactly as M&T has them on file
  • A current check to copy from (not a deposit slip)

Steps

  1. Pick a design and quantity (singles are cheapest; duplicates make a carbon copy).
  2. Enter your routing number, account number, starting check number, name and address.
  3. Check the preview carefully: printers print exactly what you type.
  4. Choose shipping (trackable is safer) and pay.
Check Quantity and price Per check
Carousel Blue Safety 1 box (100 checks) $20.00; 2 boxes $39.50; 4 boxes $79.00 about 20¢
Bank Checks Plus Blue Safety 1 box (100 checks) $22.59; 2 boxes $40.66; 4 boxes $83.57 about 21–23¢
Carousel Mountain Lake Reflections 1 box (100 checks) $25.50; 2 boxes $46.00; 4 boxes $92.50 about 23–26¢

About M&T Bank

M&T Bank (Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company) is the bank of M&T Bank Corporation (NYSE: MTB), headquartered at One M&T Plaza in Buffalo, New York. Its branches run from Maine to Virginia and Washington, D.C.

Every M&T check carries the same routing and account numbers whoever prints it, so M&T customers can order from M&T’s printer or from any check printer. Printers sell personalized check designs in far more styles than a standard checkbook, and our Coupons and Specials page lists the current codes. Add accessories such as address labels and checkbook covers to the same order.

Security features

Bank and printer checks meet the same banking standards; what differs is the security features you choose and how the box is delivered. Order only through M&T’s own reorder page, 1-800-724-2440, a branch, or a printer site you typed in yourself, and choose trackable delivery.

Checks Unlimited lists chemical protection, erasure protection and a microprint signature line on its checks. Its SentryShield check fraud protection is added to orders for an extra charge, and you can remove it in the cart. Choose trackable delivery and keep unused checks locked away.

Delivery time

M&T says to allow 10–14 days for production and standard delivery. Express delivery is available for most products, though an expedited order placed later in the day can be produced and shipped the next day rather than the same day.

Checks Unlimited: printing and standard delivery take up to 15 business days after order verification, or 7–11 business days with trackable delivery. In-Plant Rush ($6.99) gets your order ready to ship within 2 business days after verification. Carousel lists shipping from Bulk (9–18 business days) to Next Day Air, plus processing time.
