Business Online Banking

Business Online Banking offers new features under the Business Tab, including Payments, Recipients, and User Management.

The Payments section allows the users to create wire transfer payments and templates. In 2025, ACH origination will be added here.

The Recipients section allows users to add, edit, and delete recipients for wire transfers.

The User Management section allows administrators to create, edit, and grant online banking access to new users. The administrator can choose to limit the users’ access to transaction types or online banking features.

An Administrator is the primary user for online banking and has access to all the features provided in business online banking. The administrator is responsible for authorizing online banking access to any additional delegates (sub-users), including modifying the access to the features offered.

A delegate is a sub-user that has been given access to business online banking as authorized by an administrator. The extent of the access provided to the delegate (sub-user) is dependent upon the rights and features provided by the administrator.
Log-in to Online Banking > Select the “Business” dropdown on the menu > Select “User Management” > Select “Add User” > Complete the required user details > Select “Save New User Details” > Enable “Transactions” and “Rights” granted to the user > Select “Save” > Select “Features” > Select “Features” granted to the user > Select “Save” > Select "Accounts” > Select “View, Deposit, and/or Withdraw” access for business accounts > Select “Save”
