Your authentication is based on the principle that only the bearer of the smart card and the associated PIN code will be able to answer a mathematical challenge sent by our web server. To use the authentication, follow a few simple steps.

Be careful during the first steps, because entering the PIN code incorrectly 3 times blocks the smart card.

 

• Step 1:
  • Enter the Bank Authentication Card number in the 'username' box: your card number is displayed above; it is possible to enter the shortened number beginning 'CABxxxx...'.
  
  
• Step 2:
  • Insert the Bank Authentication Card into the card reader, which lights up.
  • Enter the PIN code for the card (secret code known only to the bearer).
  
  
• Step 3:
  • The card reader displays 'enter challenge number'.
  • Enter the challenge number displayed on your terminal screen into the card reader: the card reader displays a 'result' comprising 8 digits.
  
  
• Step 4:
  • Enter the 'result' displayed by your card reader in the 'password' box for the web server.
  
  
• You are authenticated!
