I'm wondering if banks in the United States use sort codes like they do in some other countries. I know in places like the UK, sort codes are common, but I'm not sure about the US.

The sort code serves as an identifier for UK banks.

In the US, the routing number helps direct the transfer within the domestic banking system.
