06/09/23
This article applies to all Editions of Digital Banking.

To use the functionality in the Digital Banking platform, we recommend that you follow these guidelines. If you are using software or devices that are not listed as supported, you may have a degraded experience with certain functionality, and we may be unable to assist you.

Desktop use


You should use a computer that has:
  • Microsoft Windows 10 or later; Mac OS X 10.10 or later operating systems

  • An internet connection with a minimum of 1 Mbps download speed.
  • 1280+ pixel width is recommended for your monitor's resolution.
  • Available browser updates applied for improved security that provide antivirus and spyware protection.

Please note: Satellite connections often have difficulty supporting encrypted, Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) applications. Since Digital Banking is HTTPS encrypted for the safety of your financial information, some satellite cable connections may exhibit slow responses.
