Typical Wells Fargo weekday and weekend hours
Most Wells Fargo branches open at 9 a.m. Monday through Friday and close at 5 p.m. or 6 p.m. Some high-traffic locations stay open until 6 p.m. or later on weekdays to accommodate customer volume. A smaller number of branches open at 8 a.m. or close as early as 4:30 p.m., so checking your specific location matters before planning your visit. Urban branches tend to have longer hours than branches in smaller towns.
Saturday hours are usually 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. or 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., though some branches may have different Saturday schedules. Very few Wells Fargo branches are open on Sunday. If you need banking on a weekend, call ahead to confirm that your branch is open and that the service you need is available, since not all services may be offered on Saturday.
What to do if you cannot visit during branch hours
Wells Fargo ATMs are available 24/7 for withdrawals, balance inquiries, and transfers between your own accounts. Many Wells Fargo ATMs also accept deposits, though not all machines have this capability. If you need to deposit a check outside branch hours, use mobile deposit through the Wells Fargo mobile app — you photograph the front and back of the check and submit it without visiting a branch or ATM. The check typically posts to your account within one business day.
Phone banking is available 24/7 at 1-800-869-3557. You can check balances, transfer money between accounts, pay bills, and handle many other tasks by phone without waiting for a branch to open. Online banking through wellsfargo.com also works around the clock for viewing accounts, transferring funds, paying bills, and managing your accounts from any device with internet access.
Holiday hours and closures
Wells Fargo branches are closed on major U.S. holidays, including New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Some branches may also close on other holidays depending on local observance or state-specific holidays. If you have a banking need on a holiday, ATMs and phone banking remain available 24/7.
Check the Wells Fargo website or call your branch a few days before a holiday if you are unsure whether it will be open. This is especially important if you need a service that requires a teller, since those services will not be available on holiday closures. Plan ahead for any time-sensitive banking needs around major holidays.
Services that require a branch visit versus those available online or by phone
Many banking tasks can be completed at an ATM, through the mobile app, or by phone without visiting a branch. Withdrawals, deposits, balance checks, transfers between your own accounts, and bill payments all work through these channels. However, some services require you to visit a branch in person and speak with a teller or banker.
Services that typically require a branch visit include opening a new account, ordering a cashier's check, resolving account disputes, applying for a loan, discussing investment options, or handling complex transactions. If you are unsure whether your specific need requires a branch visit, call customer service at 1-800-869-3557 and describe what you need. They can tell you whether you must visit in person or whether your task can be handled remotely.
