At Scotiabank, we're committed to providing you with a secure and protected environment and have several safeguards in place for Scotia OnLine® Financial Services.
Account Access
To access your Scotiabank accounts you'll need your ScotiaCard™ number and Scotia OnLine password which are unique to you. Without them, no one can log into your account. Also, whenever you use Scotia OnLine you'll receive a reference number after every completed transaction. Keep this number on file in case you have future questions about a transaction.
Encryption Security
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a security encryption method used by high-security Internet browsers from Microsoft* and Netscape**. SSL has become an industry standard due to its widespread use by banks and retailers who offer transactional services on the Internet.
SSL is available for Scotia OnLine. As information passes between your computer and the bank's computers it is encrypted or "scrambled" which prevents others from being able to read or tamper with your account activity.
With SSL, you can securely access Scotia OnLine from any computer with an Internet connection and an approved browser. This is especially convenient if you wish to bank online from more than one computer - such as from home and from work.
We're here to answer your questions, anytime.
