Frequently Asked Questions

We've compiled the most common questions about Personal Digital Banking below.
Don't see your question answered? Contact us and we'll help you out!

If you’re having trouble logging in, the most likely reason is that you haven’t logged in to online banking or the mobile app for quite some time. For your security and protection, we deactivate accounts that are not being used. To regain access, call us at 1.800.264.2926.
Two-factor authentication is an electronic security function in which a user is granted access to a feature or transaction only after successfully providing two distinct forms of identification. Once you use your password to log in to online banking or the mobile app, we use authentication codes as an added layer of security for key transactions. These codes are sent to your email or mobile phone and must be input into the platform when prompted.
First, check your spam or junk folder. If you don’t find it, wait for 10 minutes before you click "Resend the Code" on your confirmation screen to try again. If you end up receiving 2 codes, use the latest one that was sent to you. 
You can sign in using your debit card number in place of your username and you can contact us to assist with recovering your username.
