Logging in to Online Banking

If you’re entering your username correctly, you might receive an error message because you haven’t downloaded and logged in to the Cashplus Banking App before or haven’t requested a Code Key.
If you get an error message when you try to enter your password and verification code, you may have entered either of these wrong. Generate a new verification code and try again.
-
Due to an intermittent issue, some customers are having trouble with entering their verification code. This is due to a timing out issue, which our team are aware of and currently working to get fixed. We'll keep you updated on this.
- Before you request your verification code, make sure you have your Online Servicing login page open and ready to enter your verification code when requested.
- Once you receive your verification code, make sure you enter it as soon as possible. If you are delayed in entering your code, it may time out.
- To ensure your verification code works, please refresh your verification code screen until the current one expires and a new code appears. When a new verification code appears, please enter this immediately into Online Servicing.

Since 4th September 2019, the way you log in to Online banking or your Cashplus banking app is slightly different.
You now need to go through one more security step, which could be either one of these:
- Entering a verification code as well as your username and password. You can generate verification codes using the latest version of the Cashplus banking app or a Code Key which is a small device that you can purchase for £8.00, and we'll send to your registered address. For more information on Code Keys please read our FAQs below.
- When you log in to the Cashplus banking app it will recognise your device so we can check it's you accessing your account.
-
We’re always working to make sure your Cashplus Bank Account is as safe and secure as possible, and as a regulated bank, we also need to comply with the rules and regulations set down by the government.
To combat financial crime and better protect everyday people from fraud and scams, the government sometimes introduces new security checks that the industry must implement. This is why every now and again, the way you access and use your Cashplus Bank account online will be updated.

-
To log in, you’ll need the latest version of the Cashplus Bank App so that you can generate the verification code needed to access Online Banking. This is the recommended and most secure way to receive the required verification code. Alternatively, if you can’t use the app, you’ll need to call us to purchase a Code Key for £8.00.
You’ll also need to make sure we have your most up to date contact details so we can send you a verification code by SMS and update your security settings by creating some memorable questions and answers. If you haven’t done this already, simply log into Online Banking, and follow the prompts, set your memorable questions, and then you’re good to go!
-
To access Online Banking without the app, you can call us to purchase a Code Key for £8.00 that will give you a one-time verification code so you can log in to Online Banking that way.
-
If you don’t own a smartphone or tablet and you’re feeling concerned about the £8.00 costs to purchase a Code Key, please give us a call and our team will see how we can help you.

- Never share your Code Key verification codes or your one time passcode with anyone.
