What's changing?

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) will be mandatory for all online banking users after this update. It is an enhanced security measure meant to keep your banking information protected and secure.

You will be prompted to enroll upon your first login after the update. You can choose from 4 options:

  • Push Notifications: Sends a prompt to the users mobile device, allowing them to approve or deny the login attempt with a single tap.

  • SMS Authentication: Sends a one-time password (OTP) via test message and is entered manually by the user.

  • Voice Call Authentication: Delivers a spoken one-time password (OTP) through an automated phone call. It is often used as an alternative to SMS. If you do not have a smartphone, this is the best option for you.

  • Web Authentication: Typically involves using a secure key or device-based biometrics (fingerprint or facial recognition) directly within a browser session.
How often will I have to use MFA?
When your device has 'trusted' status, you will not have to use MFA.
 
  • On mobile, your device will become 'trusted' after you enroll for MFA, and will not lose its status unless you reinstall the app or remove the device from your 'trusted' list.

  • On a web browser, 'trusted' status will expire after 12 hours, so you will usually have to use MFA each time you log in.

Maximum 35 alphanumeric characters (A to Z, a to z, 0 to 9, and special characters) and your username cannot be your PAN (16-digit debit card number).

Simple tips:

  • It cannot be changed
  • It could be your email address
  • Something you can remember easily
  • If you try something and it isn't accepted, it means someone else already has that username.

  • at least 10 characters minimum and up to 35 characters maximum

  • at least one upper case letter

  • at least one lower case letter

  • at least one number

  • special characters are optional

Simple tips:
  • Choose a letter of the alphabet and swap it out with a number or special character every time it appears in your password.
  • Use a code that you understand for your password
  • Spell a word you choose backwards and add numbers
No, once you've chosen a username, you won't be able to change it.

  2. Enter your username

  3. Enter your email or phone number

  4. Follow the instructions that are emailed or texted to you

 
You will not need an app to use mobile banking on your tablet or iPad. You can access the website and log in through https://www.vermilioncreditunion.com through a browser. The website will react and is responsive to the size of your tablet's screen. The user experience is better through the tablet's browsers like Safari or Chrome versus downloading the mobile banking app on your tablet. 
No, the good news is now you can log in with the use of your personal username instead of having to remember a 19-digit card number. In fact, that unique username is what you should always use going forward once you've logged in the first time. 

Security Features

Simplify your login experience by setting up your phone’s biometric login features (if applicable).

  1. Follow your device’s instructions for turning on Fingerprint ID or Touch ID

  2. Log in to the Vermilion CU Mobile app

  3. From the menu, click Security

  4. Click Set up Fingerprint/Touch ID

Both fingerprint and facial recognition will be available on the new mobile platform, if your mobile device supports it.

One-time security codes provide an additional layer of protection that safeguards sensitive information and certain online banking activities. It’s a numeric security code (up to 7 digits) that you will receive via text message to your mobile phone or to your  email address when you perform certain activities.  The code is time sensitive and valid only for a limited amount of time. Here are some examples of when one-time passcodes are used:

  • Register for online banking
  • First time you sign in to online banking
  • Add a new bill vendor
  • Update contact information
  • Change or reset your password
  • Transfer funds to other members
  • Add an Interac e-Transfer® recipient
First, check your spam or junk folder. If you don’t find it there, click resend the code on your confirmation screen to try it again.
