How Do I Know if an ATM is a CAATM?
You can check if an ATM is a CAATM by looking for a CAATM logo on the ATM’s exterior. You can also use Navy Federal’s ATM Locator tool on their website or mobile app to find nearby CAATMs.
Which ATMs Accept Cash Deposits?
Not all ATMs accept cash deposits. Some ATMs may only be able to dispense cash or perform other services, such as check deposits or balance inquiries. To determine which ATMs accept cash deposits, you can use the following table:
| ATM Type | Cash Deposit | Check Deposit | Balance Inquiry |
|---|---|---|---|
| CAATM | |||
| Non-CAATM |
Limits on Cash Deposits
There are daily limits on cash deposits, which vary depending on the ATM and your account type. For example, you may be able to deposit up to $1,000 per day at a CAATM, while non-CAATMs may have a lower limit.
