How accurate is the balance on my Online/Mobile Banking?
Online Banking uses Two-Factor Authentication to keep your account secure. 2FA will be enacted upon initial login to Online and Mobile Banking.
What is two-factor authentication?
Two-factor authentication (or 2FA) is a method that goes beyond having the traditional username and password and helps protect your online accounts by requiring an extra step when you log in to verify your identity. When 2FA is enabled, users will receive a one-time passcode through a variety of methods. The common scenario is that the passcode is sent to the user using email, text message, or phone call.
Why have two-factor authentication?
Advancements in cybercrimes and fraud have enabled bad actors to spoof email accounts, hack email addresses to force password resets, and misrepresent themselves over the phone with relative ease. 2FA is enabled to add another layer of security to your online banking.
2FA Verification Methods
Our new Online Banking platform will allow users to choose from one of the following methods to verify their credentials at login:
- Phone or text message: When Phone or text message is selected, a one-time code is generated and sent to you. This is the recommended method for ease of use, and likely the one you are most familiar with in other online platforms.
- Authy: is an authenticator app. It can be downloaded from the App Store or Google Play. Users download the app and set up an Authy account.
- Authenticator App: If you already use another authentication app (i.e. Google Authenticator or Microsoft Mobile Phone Authenticator), it can be utilized in 2FA verification. During the setup process, you’ll be provided with a text code, as well as a QR code for desktop users, to enter into your chosen authentication app.
- FIDO Security Keys: FIDO security keys is a physical token that connected to your computer via USB, Bluetooth, or NFC. The authentication code is automatically entered and never shared with anyone, including you.

If your Online Banking information has been compromised, please call 402.434.3456, Monday-Friday 7:00am-7:00pm; Saturday 8:00am-12:00pm, and speak with our Solutions Center.
After business hours, try to log into Online Banking and change your password ASAP, if you still have access to it.

You will still want to contact us once we are open during business hours to verify your account is secure.
