Bankinter was the first bank to incorporate technology to make life easier for its customers. We also strive to offer you a high level of protection and privacy of your data and transactions. Therefore:

  • High security standards are implemented and developed to protect the authenticity, confidentiality, integrity and availability of information systems from an operational and technical standpoint.
  • The Online Banking web servers use an extended validation certificate issued by the trust certifying entity Entrust.
  • All transmitted information is encrypted with standard complex algorithms and with passwords established in each connection using a secure protocol. Our systems connected to the internet are protected by "firewalls" and intrusion detection systems to prevent possible attacks and protect online banking.
  • We run regular internal and external Intrusion tests on our information systems.

Bankinter was the first financial institution in the world to simultaneously receive ISO 22301:2019 and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification by the British Standards Institution (BSI). The Bank subsequently obtained ISO/IEC 27017:2015 certification from BSI. These certifications attest to the Bank's quality, operability and compliance with the requirements of the business continuity management system, the information security management system and the cloud services security management system.

Our information security, business continuity and cloud services security policies are available here.


Additional security measures

  1. Every time you sign a transaction, you enter your coordinates using a display panel (this system averts the risk of keylogger malware that tries to capture information by using keystrokes).
  2. You are automatically logged off after 20 minutes of non-use (30 minutes in the Broker). This measure prevents others from accessing your data on your computer if you are careless or neglectful (if you do not use the Logout option).
  3. We have control systems for custom operating limits to prevent transactions above a certain amount; and general operating limits, which limit the total amount of transactions that can be carried out through our websites. This measure limits the risk of any loss.
  4. You have to change the password the first time you log in so only you know it—to ensure nobody can impersonate you.
  5. Your online banking username and password must be at least 6 characters long, so they are difficult to guess.
  6. You can choose not to receive account statements or regular mail about your banking activity; this also means there is less risk of someone finding out about your financial situation by looking through your mailbox. All account statements and supporting documents for transactions are available and can be consulted on the website.

Biometric Login: Touch ID/Face ID on iOS and Fingerprint on Android

We can use the Biometric Login as an access method, based on TouchID technology, Apple FaceID and Android Fingerprint 6.0. We can use this technology to safely store certain data that can only be accessed via fingerprint. These data are stored locally on the device, in a single, secure and fingerprint-protected location, not synchronised in iCloud or copied in any device backups that might be made.

Touch ID is only accessible on Apple phones from iPhone 5S with iOS8 or higher and on iPads with TouchID. The FaceID mechanism is only available on iPhone X.

Android fingerprint authentication is only available for devices that support fingerprint and Android 6 or higher.

The authentication process applied to the new online banking is based on enabling this secure location after a successful “manual” login through the new app. Users can safely store a unique key for that terminal which is their fingerprint or face (FaceID) protected. For subsequent authentication processes, all users have to do is put their fingerprint on the sensor button to access their private area directly (without typing in credentials); FaceID authentication is even more transparent for user as you simply need to be facing your phone.

The volume of attempted fraud against us and other banks is increasing every year. These attempts are designed to steal your login credentials and are carried out through different means:

  • Phishing (fraudulent emails)
  • Vishings (fraudulent calls)
  • Smishings (fraudulent SMS)
  • Identity theft
  • QR hacks (modified QR codes)
  • Baiting (fraudulent external devices)
  • BIZUM (unexpected payment request attempts)
Bankinter will NEVER ask you for your access or signature passwords by email or any other means.

If you think you have been the victim of a scam or fraud, or you suspect any movement in your account or on your card, contact our Fraud Assistance Service (900 81 00 62) immediately. The line is open 24/7. If you prefer, you can also go to the nearest branch to receive help.

Remember, you can block your card directly on the Bankinter website or app, or cancel it by calling VISA (900 991 124).

Some important recommendations:

  1. Change your username and password regularly. Your username and password should contain a combination of numbers, letters and special characters. Avoid using real names or things associated with you.
  2. Never reveal your password, particularly by email or phone.
  3. Don't forget to disconnect from the website once you have finished with it.
  4. Keep your browser version updated.
  5. Keep your operating system up to date with the latest updates.
  6. Avoid downloading from unknown web sites.
  7. Always keep your antivirus up to date.
