Quickbooks Checking through Green Dot back--how to deposit a check over $10,000

Hello, I'm new to Quickbooks Online and Quickbooks Checking. I went to mobile deposit my first vendor check, and found that there's a $10,000 limit per check. This check is for $12,500. I called Quickbooks and spent quite a long time on the phone with a great support person who researched and confirmed that I should be able to make the deposit (he even called Green Dot Bank to confirm). After we hung up, I tried again and it was again rejected for being over the limit. I'm at a loss. I looked to see if there's any way to deposit a check at a physical location, but there are no options. Has anyone else dealt with this issue? Thanks!!

Quickbooks Checking through Green Dot back--how to deposit a check over $10,000

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Lizza. I've got some information about check deposit limits in QuickBooks Checking. 

 

The average deposit limit is up to $10,000 per transaction. However, it varies depending on the customer's eligibility. Thus, it's possible that you reached the set limit for your checking account. If you want to check your deposit limits, you can view them in the mobile check deposit flow. You can refer to the image below:
 


 

On the other hand, you might consider splitting the deposit into two transactions, so you don't exceed the average limit. Here's how:

 

  1. Sign in to your QuickBooks mobile account.
  2. Select Cash Flow.
  3. From the QuickBooks Checking homepage, select Send Money.
  4. Select Deposit checks.
  5. Enter the half of the check amount. 

 

Here is the full article for more detailed steps in depositing checks: Use mobile check deposit with QuickBooks Checking.

 

Additionally, you can visit this link to learn more about the feature's frequently asked questions: Find out more about mobile check deposits.

 

Let us know if you have other questions about managing your check deposits or have any concerns with QuickBooks. We'll make sure we'll help you out. Have a great day!

Quickbooks Checking through Green Dot back--how to deposit a check over $10,000

Thank you for this information, @JuliaMikkaelaQ! I read through the links you shared, and I didn't find any additional information about depositing one check in two separate transactions. Before I proceed, I just want to confirm that I understand correctly. Is this accurate?

  • I can deposit one check for $12,500 in two phases simply by entering half the total into the check amount field and doing that twice. 

Once you confirm that I understand correctly, I will try it. 

Thanks!

I've tried the above directions, splitting the check in half, but the app will not accept another picture of the check. Only half was deposited, what should I do to add the other half?

Were you ever able to deposit the second half of your check?  I am in the same position - my check is over $10,000 but I really need to get this deposited!

I can provide you with some information about your check deposit, wavepromos.

 

QuickBooks Online sets a check deposit limit based on the customer's eligibility. It's possible reason that you've reached the set limit of your checking account. To check your deposit limits, you can view them in the mobile check deposit flow.

  1. Go to this link: QuickBooks Online company.
  2. Select Help (?) at the top right.
  3. Select or type Contact Us.

  5. Choose a way to connect with us:

@wavepromos and @dprater1 Have either of you found a solution? Since posting my original question, I've spent another 45 minutes on the phone with Quickbooks payments who finally just told me there's no solution and I need to request that my client re-issue the check in two parts. I was told it isn't possible to request an increase to the check deposit limit.

Unfortunately, I had to open another business checking account. I hope QB/Green Dot will resolve this for future QB Checking users... it's a significant barrier to marketability of the product.

This is crazy that QB won't let you deposit >$10,000 checks for BUSINESS accounts! I guess they only want freelancers to use QB Banking?

I JUST went through the same thing, for a check that is $10,125. I spoke with someone from QB/Green Dot who specifically said that they have no information regarding going to a physical atm and trying to deposit it, but I could try and see what happened. I’m requesting a call back from either a supervisor or someone who would know about in-person deposits, which should be happening within the next four hours. 

 

I had worked in the customer service industry for a long time, and I can appreciate that this must be difficult to deal with, but there’s gotta be something better than being cut off during the conversation and being told that I should just go back to my vendor and have them re-issue checks. I run a small business and it’s not unheard of to get checks for over $10k, especially as final payouts from projects, and going back to a vendor to get new, separate, copies could take actual weeks to re-issue a check. QB: my company got the checking account and pay the monthly fees to make our lives easier, not overly complicated. This sucks.
