Enhanced Security for Online and Mobile Banking

Cloudflare Turnstile Security Update

To further protect your accounts from fraud and unauthorized access, we have recently implemented a new cybersecurity feature on our online and mobile banking platforms. This additional layer of protection, powered by advanced technology, is designed to ensure that the person logging in is a genuine user and not a bot attempting to gain access through automated or scripted attacks.

If you log in to online banking via a desktop computer or mobile app (without using facial recognition), you may have noticed a new verification step during the login process that looks like this:

In the majority of cases, this verification will be completed behind the scenes, requiring no additional action from you. In some cases, you may be asked to check a box to confirm that you are a real person logging in on a valid device. However, in a very small number of instances, you might encounter a verification error. This means the system was unable to verify your login attempt.

If you receive an error, here are some common tips for how you may address the situation:

  • Restart your browser or close and re-open the mobile app.
  • Clear your cache and cookies.
  • Update your browser to the latest version.
  • Disable browser extension(s).
  • Try logging in on a different browser.
  • If you are using Internet Explorer, move to a supported browser.
    (Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Safari, or Mozilla Firefox).
  • Ensure you are not behind a VPN or proxy. Especially, public or shared VPNs or proxies such as ExpressVPN, NordVPN, etc.
  • If on a desktop computer, try logging in on our mobile app (and set up facial recognition).
  • Uninstall and reinstall the mobile app on your phone.
  • Try logging in from a different computer or device.
  • Scan your computer for viruses and malware that may be impacting your device’s security profile.
