What is SafePass ?
SafePass is an optional extra layer of protection for Online Banking. When completing sensitive activities you trigger a 6-digit, 1-time-use code to be sent to your registered mobile device as a text message. After you have enabled SafePass, you will be prompted to enter the SafePass code you receive when: • Adding new transfer and Bill Pay accounts • Making large transfers • Verifying your identity without SiteKey questions • Signing in to Online Banking (optional) If you choose to use SafePass, some online activities will be automatically protected while some can be optionally protected. Most actions will only require that you use SafePass just a few times per month. You can select which actions you want to use SafePass on by visiting the SafePass settings page. SafePass is considered part of two-factor authentication, which uses ‘something you know’ (your passcode, for example) and ‘something you have’ (SafePass code via mobile device) to verify your identity.
