• Have you (and the other signatories) signed in all the places indicated (front and back), using the signature presented to the bank when you opened the account?

Registering with Banif@st is secure

The registration form is filled in individually, meaning that each Banif@st user has his or her own access code and password (which only he or she should know), irrespective of the number of accounts (or other account holders).

Registration forms are validated by separate departments, with clearly defined powers and responsibilities.

Customers living in areas with no Banif branch can also register

All Banif clients living in areas with no Banif branch can also register for Banif@st by post. Please note that the registration process will naturally be rather slower.
