Introducing the iBanFirst authentication app

The iBanFirst app is a mobile application designed to enhance the security of your financial operations and provide a more seamless experience when managing international payments on the iBanFirst platform.

More specifically, you can:

  • Link the iBanFirst authenticator app to your iBanFirst account in just a few clicks

  • Instantly approve or deny any login attempts and sensitive financial operations (such as creating and modifying payments and beneficiaries or creating a new entity) through push notifications, time-based codes or face/touch ID

Why you should use the iBanFirst app

No need to use Google Authenticator anymore! The iBanFirst app is the easiest and most secure way to approve or deny all sensitive cross-border payment operations.
