Citizens Bank is open on Saturdays at most locations, but hours vary by branch

Most Citizens Bank branches open on Saturday mornings, typically between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m., and close between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. Some branches stay open later—until 4 p.m. or 5 p.m.—but this is less common. A few branches in smaller towns or rural areas may not open on Saturday at all. The only way to know your specific branch's Saturday hours is to check directly, because Citizens Bank does not publish a single weekend schedule that applies everywhere.

Citizens Bank operates in 11 states: Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Ohio, and Indiana. Saturday hours can differ even between branches in the same city, so calling ahead or checking online before you go saves a wasted trip.

Key Takeaways

  • Most Citizens Bank branches open on Saturday mornings between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m., but closing times range from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. depending on location.
  • Some branches do not open on Saturday, particularly in smaller towns, so you cannot assume your branch is open without checking first.
  • The fastest way to confirm Saturday hours is to call your branch directly or look up the address on Citizens Bank's website and check the hours listed there.
  • Citizens Bank does not open on Sundays at any branch location.

How to find your branch's exact Saturday hours

Go to Citizens Bank's website and use the branch locator tool. Enter your zip code or city name, and the results will show each nearby branch with its full weekly schedule. The hours listed there are current and branch-specific. If you see a branch listed without Saturday hours, that location does not open on weekends.

If you prefer to call, dial the main Citizens Bank customer service line and ask for your local branch number, then call the branch directly. Staff can confirm Saturday hours and tell you whether they offer services you need—some smaller branches do not have all services available, such as safe deposit boxes or notary services.

What you can and cannot do on Saturday

On Saturday, you can deposit checks, withdraw cash, open new accounts, and speak with a banker about loans or other services. Teller windows are staffed during all open hours. However, not all transactions process the same way on weekends. Deposits made on Saturday after the branch's cutoff time (usually 2 p.m. or 3 p.m.) may not post to your account until Monday.

Wire transfers, cashier's checks, and other services that require back-office processing may take longer if you request them on Saturday. If you need something processed the same day, ask the teller about the cutoff time before you complete the transaction.

Weekend banking without visiting a branch

Citizens Bank's mobile app and website are open 24 hours, seven days a week. You can transfer money between your own accounts, pay bills, deposit checks by photo, and check your balance anytime on Saturday or Sunday. You do not need to visit a branch for these tasks.

If you need cash on Saturday evening or Sunday, use any Citizens Bank ATM or any ATM in the MoneyPass network, which Citizens Bank participates in. ATMs are available around the clock. If you use an out-of-network ATM, you may be charged a fee by both Citizens Bank and the ATM operator.

What to do if your branch is closed on Saturday

If your branch does not open on Saturday, you have several options. First, check whether another Citizens Bank branch nearby opens on Saturday—you can use any branch for most transactions, not just your home branch. Second, use the mobile app or website to handle routine tasks like transfers, bill pay, and check deposits. Third, visit an ATM to withdraw cash or deposit checks (most Citizens Bank ATMs accept check deposits).

If you need to speak with someone on Saturday and your branch is closed, call customer service. Citizens Bank's phone line is staffed on Saturday mornings, though wait times may be longer than on weekdays.

Sunday and holiday hours

Citizens Bank does not open any branches on Sunday. All branches are also closed on federal holidays, including New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. On the day after a holiday, branches return to their normal schedule.

If you need to handle banking on a Sunday or holiday, the mobile app, website, and ATMs remain available. Transactions you make through these channels will process on the next business day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I deposit a check at a Citizens Bank ATM on Saturday?

Yes. Most Citizens Bank ATMs accept check deposits 24 hours a day, including Saturday. The deposit will be processed and posted to your account, but the timing depends on when you deposit it. Checks deposited before the cutoff time (usually 2 p.m. or 3 p.m.) may post the same day; deposits after that time typically post on Monday.

Do all Citizens Bank branches have the same Saturday hours?

No. Saturday hours vary by branch and location. Some open at 8 a.m., others at 9 a.m. Closing times range from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. A small number of branches do not open on Saturday at all. Always check your specific branch's hours before visiting.

What if I need to open a new account on Saturday?

You can open a new account at any Citizens Bank branch that is open on Saturday. You will need a government-issued ID and proof of address. Some accounts can also be opened through the mobile app or website without visiting a branch.

Can I get a cashier's check on Saturday?

Most Citizens Bank branches can issue a cashier's check on Saturday while the branch is open, but ask about the processing time. If you need it the same day, confirm the cutoff time with the teller before you request it, as some branches may not be able to process it in time if you arrive late in the day.
