depositor

Account holder type

A depositor is a person or entity that puts money into a bank account or other financial institution.

The term appears in banking contexts and legal documents: Depositors are insured up to $250,000 by the FDIC.

A depositor may also be anyone who deposits something for safekeeping, though the financial sense dominates.
