How does it work?

Depositing checks has never been easier. Once you’re downloaded the FBOL mobile app, simply launch it on your phone and select Deposit. To deposit a check, choose the account to make your deposit. Then enter the amount. Sign the back of your check, with the endorsement For Mobile Deposit Only at First Bank of the Lake.

Now, take a photo of the front of the check. Photograph the check against a background that gives you strong contrast. Ensure the entire check is visible, in focus, and well lit. When ready tap the camera icon to snap your picture. If it’s clear use it. Repeat this process for the back of the check. Once both images have been captured make your deposit.

That’s it!
