Common Questions
We've answered the questions we hear most often
Is it safe to use banking apps on my phone?
Yes, banking apps are designed with strong security. They're often safer than using websites because banks control the app experience and update them regularly. Just make sure you download from the official app store and use a strong password.
How do I know if a website is safe for shopping?
Look for three things: a padlock icon in the address bar, "https://" at the start of the URL (not just "http://"), and recognizable security badges like VeriSign or similar. Don't shop on websites that look unprofessional or have spelling errors.
What's the difference between a password and two-factor authentication?
A password is your first line of defense — it's what you know. Two-factor authentication adds a second step, usually a code sent to your phone. Together they're much stronger because someone would need both your password AND access to your phone to get in.
Should I save my payment information on websites?
It's convenient, but only on websites you trust completely. For banking sites and major retailers, it's usually safe because they encrypt the data. For smaller shops you're unsure about, it's better to enter your information fresh each time.
What should I do if I think my account has been compromised?
Contact your bank or the retailer immediately — don't wait. Change your password right away using a different device if possible. Check your account statements for unauthorized transactions. Your bank can help you secure your account and reverse any fraudulent charges.
