Have questions? Please check our Digital Banking Upgrade FAQs. If you do not see your question below or need to discuss anything with us, please contact your local branch or call 1-800-559-0011.
Initial Login
- How will I log in when the new platform goes live?
- You will log in with your existing username and password.
- You will also be asked to provide a phone number to set up Two-Factor Authentication to help safeguard your account.
- What if I can’t remember my log in credentials?
- For security reasons, the “forgot password” function will not work for your initial log on to the new platform. If you have forgotten your username and/or password, please contact us at 1-800-559-0011 to have it reset.
- What is Two-Factor Authentication?
- Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is a security feature that helps safeguard your account information when users provide two distinct forms of identification. To implement 2FA, you will need to enroll a phone number (mobile or landline). Once this information is entered, you’ll choose one of three options to receive a one-time verification code:
- Text message to the mobile phone entered,
- Automated phone call to phone number entered, or
- Authenticator App (download the Authy app here (Opens in a new Window)).
** If you are banking from outside the USA, you will be required to download Authy or another 3rd party authentication app to receive a text verification code. - Do I have to utilize 2FA each time I log on?
- After entering the verification code, if you are logging in from a secure computer, you have the option to select “Don’t ask for code again on this computer.” This allows you to avoid having to enter a verification code during each login. This option should never be selected on a shared or public computer.
- Will my username and password remain the same?
- Yes, your username and password will stay the same.
- What browsers are supported with the new platform?
- We recommend downloading the current version of Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, or Apple Safari*.
