Benefits of Online Banking

Convenience. Life often takes place outside business hours. Need to transfer¹ money into your account before dinner? No problem. At a soccer game and need to make sure the electric bill is paid? Check it instantly. You can also avoid late fees and set up automatic, recurring bill payments². To access these features, call your bank or ask your bank representative to sign you up when you open an account.

Security. Industry standard bank technology protects your money with firewalls, anti-virus protection, encryption, fraud monitoring and automatic logout, among other features. These create a strong defense against hackers who want to access your account. Scammers will also try to get information from you. Phone calls pretending to be the IRS, emails claiming the bank needs your account information, charity scams, sweetheart scams and wire fraud are only a few of the culprits. Don’t give information to anyone unless you are absolutely sure they are legitimate. 

Flexibility. The more time you save banking, the more time you can spend with your family, kids, friends or partner. Technology offers you the ability to customize your banking experience. If you only use your phone to check balances or make simple transfers, text banking³ is for you.
