I’m hesitant about banking online – can other people see my account information?

It sure is! The Gate City Bank mobile app uses multiple methods to guard against malicious access to your account information, including:

  • Login authentication to verify your identity via password-protected access, biometric or fingerprint scan or passcode entry (especially when attempting to access your account from a new device).
  • Account data and passwords aren’t stored on your mobile device.
  • Closing the app will end your mobile banking session to prevent unintentional data sharing.

Mobile check deposits using the Gate City Bank mobile app are protected. Security features include enhanced security measures such as password protection, data encryption and internet firewalls to guard against unauthorized access.

Check images and other private information are not stored within the mobile app or on your phone, making a check deposit with the mobile app as safe as using online banking.
