Enhanced Security for Your Protection

MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION

When logging in you'll be asked to enter your user ID and password, along with a secure access code. Your secure access code will be delivered to you based on the secure delivery option you choose – phone call, text, or email. This code will only be delivered to the contact information we have on file for your account. You can choose an option to "register this device" and you won't be prompted for this code again, unless you log in from a different device, or clear your local cache that stores these settings.

ACCOUNT MONITORING

You can set up customized balance and transaction alerts. Get notified when a check clears or if your account balance dips below a certain amount. You can even set up recurring reminders so you never forget when an annual bill is going to hit your account. 

Frequently Asked Questions about Digital Banking

If I have multiple Online Banking accounts will I have to log in to each account with the usernames and passwords for each account separately?

You can sign into multiple user profiles and quickly switch between them using a PIN instead of entering a username and password. If you add more profiles to your mobile app, you will need to set up two-factor authentication (2FA) for each of them.

How do I add additional login profiles to my mobile app?

  1. From the top of the menu bar press the person icon next to your profile name.
  2. Select Add profile.
  3. Sign in to the second profile.
  4. If prompted, answer the security question. If not, continue to the next step.
  5. If prompted, complete the profile information in the form, and then select Done.
  6. Enter a PIN for the new profile.
  7. Confirm the PIN for the new profile.

How do I switch between profiles on my mobile app?

  1. From the top of the menu bar press the switch icon next to your profile name.
  2. Select the profile you wish to log into.
  3. Enter the PIN or use the fingerprint authentication if prompted.

What should I do if I did not receive a verification code to continue with the two-factor authentication enrollment?

Some phones may block a the text code or phone call since it is coming from an unknown number.  If the phone number is correct, click "Try Another Way" under the verification code box then select the other option.  If the it needs to be changed, contact eServices 217.223.6480.

How much time do I have to enter the verification code?

Codes are valid for three to six minutes and will expire after that time.

Can I lock myself out from entering an incorrect verification code?

Yes, you can get locked out of the enrollment process if too many attempts are made with an incorrect verification code (more than six times in a single hour). There is no manual reset for this; you will need to wait an hour to try again following your first attempt. If you make more than 20 unsuccessful attempts in a 24-hour period, your login will be 'Suspended' and you will not be able to attempt again for 24 hours.

If I selected “Remember this computer,” why am I being asked for a verification code each time I log in?

There are several reasons you may be prompted for a verification code:

  • if you log in on different browsers
  • if you deleted your browser history
  • if you have your browser settings set to delete your cookies and history automatically

Can I receive the two-factor authentication verification code via email?

No, this option is not available. The code can be received using one of the following options:

  • Text message
  • Phone call
  • Authy App (A third-party app that generates a one-time passcode. To register you will need an email address and phone number.)

How can I reset my two-factor authentication enrollment?

You can reset your own two-factor authentication enrollment in both the app and online by going to your Profile page, then select ‘Security’ within the ‘Settings’ area. Or contact eServices 217.223.6480 for help resetting it.
