Digital Token
Committed to offering the highest level of security.
Digital token protects your online and mobile banking transactions giving you peace of mind.
Overview
We recognize how important mobile banking security is for you, so we are adding an additional layer of security to authenticate your transactions by using digital token.
Digital token is an application that you download on your smartphone. It works without the need for internet and provides you with the 6 digits passcode that you need for online and mobile banking transactions that require additional layer of authentication.
When to use digital token
You will use it for all the mobile transactions that require additional layer of authentication:
- All bill payments and fund transfers above AED 25,000 (this excludes your own account transfers).
How to use digital token
You will use it together with your 4-digit token PIN that you need to create in CBD Online Banking (under Online Settings). This way, authentication is based on something you know (4-digit token PIN) and on something you have (6-digit number generated by the digital token app). When you open the app on your smartphone, it will display a random number, which you will enter as your passcode.
