Bank online safely
We use the latest security systems to help your business stay safe and secure when it banks online.
Real-time checks
As you bank online, we use extra security checks to make sure it’s really you and not a fraudster.

Biometrics
We look at how you use your business account online to help us spot things that aren't normal. This helps us to tell if a fraudster is trying to use the account.
Bank name display
If you set up a new payment, we may display which bank you’re sending money to like Barclays, HSBC, Tesco. This helps you to make sure a new payment goes to the right account.
-
Helpful hints
When you bank online, you may see helpful messages as you make a payment. These are there to stop scams.
Phone calls
If we suspect fraud on the account, we may call to make sure it’s you.
We’ll never ask you to complete a call to move money into another account. And we’ll never ask for your login details.
