Can I enroll ALL of my bank and credit card accounts?
For your convenience, we allow multiple account enrollments in Security Bank Online.
However, there are certain restrictions:
If you enrolled using the ATM terminal option (both bank accounts and credit cards),
only one account linked to your ATM Card Number or CIDAN and TAC can be enrolled
on the initial enrollment. You can only enroll multiple accounts, successively,
once you have activated your Security Bank Online account.
You cannot simultaneously enroll a bank account and a credit card. If you have enrolled
your bank account, you will have to wait for it to be approved before you can enroll
your credit card. If you have enrolled your credit card, you will have to wait for
it to be approved before you can enroll your bank account.
Is there a cost to enroll in Security Bank Online?
Accessing to Security Bank Online is free of charge. No additional maintaining balance
other than the usual maintaining balance for your account is required. Likewise,
no access related fees will be charged to your account. In case Security Bank Online
deems it necessary to impose charges, the rate, period and method of payment will
be announced to you.
Why is there a need to submit my online enrollment form to my preferred branch or
Security Bank Cards office if I chose the print and sign activation option?
Security Bank Online requires you to submit your Online Enrollment Form to your
preferred branch or Security Bank Cards office to establish your willingness to
enroll in the facility. It also serves as a control measure for possible fraudulent
transactions that might cause you inconvenience in the future because we believe
that your protection and of the bank is more important.
If I selected the print and sign activation option, can I send attached scanned
documents via e-mail or fax the document to my preferred branch or Security Bank
Cards office?
Security Bank Online only accepts faxed or scanned documents for the enrollment
of credit cards only.
Security Bank Online will not consider scanned or faxed documents as valid documents
for the enrollment of bank accounts. Due to the wide range of transactions
you can do with your bank accounts using Security Bank Online, we believe that it
is necessary for our clients to submit the original forms. Documents can be easily
tampered using computer graphic software that may possibly be fraudulent documents
and/or forms.
Where can I submit my online credit card enrollment form?
Credit Card enrollment forms should be completely filled out, signed and sent via
fax to Security Bank Cards at (02) 814-2745 or 893-0815. Enrollment forms may also
be submitted to the nearest Security Bank branch or Security Bank Cards office.

(1) banking day before the scheduled date taking into account that the transaction
cut-off time is at 11:00 pm for bills payment.
Unfortunately, you may not stop a bills payment or fund transfer once the transaction
has been processed. Your online statement will however, be useful as proof of transaction
to make a request to the fund recipient or biller to reverse or cancel an erroneous
bills payment or fund transfer.
