Branch and ATM Alternatives on New Year's Day
Using ATMs and Cardless Access
Chase ATMs remain available on New Year's Day for cash, check deposits (where supported), balance inquiries, and transfers. Use the Chase ATM locator in the mobile app to find nearby ATMs, and consider cardless ATM access via the app if supported at your machine. Chase Plus ATMs may offer additional features, but basic transactions are available at most Chase ATMs.
Digital Banking and Customer Support
The Chase mobile app and website support tasks such as transfers, bill payments, mobile check capture, and chat support, which is typically available 24/7. Customer service phone lines are open around the clock, though live agent availability for complex issues may be reduced compared to in-branch assistance. Check the Chase website or branch locators for any local variations due to regional observances.
What to Do If You Need In-Person Services on New Year's Day
If you must complete a transaction that requires in-person assistance on New Year's Day, you will need to wait until the next business day. To reduce the need for branch visits, submit time-sensitive requests through secure messages in the Chase app, schedule recurring payments in advance, and use ATMs for cash needs. For urgent issues, contact Chase 24/7 support to explore options like extended agent support or secure callback requests.
Regional Exceptions and Observance Notes
New Year's Day is a federal holiday observed nationwide. Some local events or branch-specific circumstances do not change the closure status, but drive-through or neighborhood locations may follow the same holiday schedule. If New Year's Day falls on a weekend, the observed federal holiday may be observed on the nearest weekday; however, branch closures will align with the official holiday date, and ATM/digital services remain uninterrupted.
Planning Ahead for Year-End and New Year Banking
Manage balances before holiday closures to cover automatic payments, consider early deposit of checks via mobile check capture, and set up payment reminders to avoid missed due dates. Use Chase’s holiday schedule each year to plan travel, bill payments, and payroll timing, and enroll in alerts to receive notifications about branch hours and service changes during holiday periods.
