What are the system and browser requirements to access Online Banking?

There are just a few requirements. You need Internet access by PC, Mac, Smartphone or other means. To use Online Banking features, your Web browser needs to be Microsoft® Internet Explorer® 6.0 (or greater), Netscape® Navigator 7.0 (or greater) or Mozilla® Firefox 2.0 (or greater). The bank uses 128-bit encryption to help ensure your security, so your Web browser needs to support that encryption as well. The versions we specify above already support the appropriate level of encryption.

  • Netscape® Navigator is no longer in development, please use one of the above browser downloads.

What type of transactions can I complete using Online Banking?

Just about every basic banking transaction short of making a physical deposit or cash withdrawal can be done online. For example, you can review and print transaction statements or monthly account statements, pay your bills and transfer funds between accounts. You can also select, sort and export transactions to personal financial management applications such as Microsoft® Money and Quicken®.

If you have AIB CDs and/or loans, you can even check your statements, balances and make loan payments via Online Banking (although you cannot transfer funds directly to CD accounts).

Can I download transactions to my software such as Quicken™, Microsoft Money™ or Microsoft Excel™?

It's easy to download transactions using the Export Feature in your Online Banking Account. Enter the account you wish to Export transanctions from, use the transactions button to download up to 2 months of past transaction history. If you require more than 2 months of transaction history please use the All Transactions button. This will allow you to pull upt to 16 months of trasaction history. You will be prompted to select the format you wish to use.

Yes. Transactions completed via Online Banking on weekdays (Monday–Friday) before 5 p.m. will post to your account the same day. Transactions completed after 5 p.m. or on weekends will post to your account the next business day.

How do I change the viewing screen size of my monitor?

ID and Password questions

For a new account, what do I enter in the Access ID and Password box (on the login screen)?

When you open the account, you will set up an Access ID and password for your account login.

Your ID must be at least six characters, and your password must have eight to twelve alphanumeric characters — at least one letter and at least one number. Both ID and password are case sensitive, which means that upper- and lower-case characters should be typed exactly as they appear.

How do I change my password?

Once you're in Online Banking, select the Option button on the main menu bar, navigate to the Edit Password area. Choose Edit, enter your current password, then enter your new password twice. Your password may be eight to twelve alphanumeric characters. For optimum security, we require you to use at least one letter and at least one number.

What do I do if I forget my password?

You'll need to set up a new password — but don't worry, we can help. Use the "Forgot Password" link in the Account login area or just contact AIB by phone or during your next bank visit.

What happens if I incorrectly enter my password?

If you enter your Access ID or Password incorrectly three consecutive times, you will be locked out of Online Banking. This is one part of our comprehensive security to ensure confidentiality. To gain access again or to receive a new password, contact us by phone or during your next bank visit. At this point "Forgot Password" will not unlock your account you must contact us or visit the nearest branch location.

Questions about managing your accounts via Online Banking

Which accounts will I be able to view through Online Banking?

You may view any AIB checking, savings, credit card, CD or loan account on which you are an authorized signer.

Can I find out CD information (such as the maturity date) via Online Banking?

Yes, you can use Online Banking to find out the following information on any AIB CDs you own:>

  • Maturity date
  • Balance
  • Interest received
  • Interest rate
  • Transaction activity

Can I find out loan information (such as the loan rate) via Online Banking?

Yes, you can use Online Banking to find out the following information on any of your AIB loans:

  • Loan rate
  • Payment amounts
  • Due dates
  • Interest paid
  • Principal balance
  • Estimated Payoff information
  • Escrow disbursements
  • Taxes paid
  • Loan and maturity date

How do I add accounts for viewing on Online Banking?

When you open a new AIB account, our Online Banking system will automatically add your account to your online profile. However, if you have two accounts under slightly different names (for example, "Kimberly Smith" and "Kim Smith") our system might consider those two different account-holders. In that instance, you can call a customer service representative and we can modify the system to recognize both accounts as yours. If you are not able to view all of your accounts on Online Banking, please contact us by phone or visit the nearest branch location.

How do I view my account balances?

Select Accounts from the main menu near the top of the screen.

What screens can I print from Online Banking?

You may print any screen that appears within the Amalgamated International Bank website. To print, click on the Print option under File at the top left of your screen, or click on the Print icon in your toolbar near the top of the page.

Does the balance shown on the Accounts Summary page include all transactions that have posted to my account?

For Checking and Savings information, all transactions that have been presented to the account (including those presented today) are included in the balance. This includes Online Banking Transfers and any ACH (Automated Clearing House) transactions made during the day. ACH Transactions include direct deposits, direct payments of bills, business-to-business payments, e-checks or e-commerce payments, etc.

Will Online Banking display transactions that will overdraw the account and/or be considered NSF (non-sufficient funds) transactions?

Yes, the transactions will be displayed on Online Banking — except for items that attempt to pay outside the $600 overdraft limit. These items won't post and therefore you won't be able to view the transaction. (This includes instances where a deposit is being held because funds are not available to pay the item.)

Can I transfer funds between any of my accounts?

Yes, you may complete transfers to and from checking and savings accounts and make payments to loans, provided you have a checking or savings account at Amarillo National Bank.

How do I request a transfer of funds between accounts?

For Express Transfers:

  1. Start on the Accounts Summary page and select Express Transfers from the main menu bar.
  2. Next, select the starting account for the transfer (where you want the money to come from).
  3. Then select the destination account (where you want the funds to go) and type in the amount of the transfer.

To make a transfer while working within an account:

  1. Start on the Accounts Summary page and select the starting account for the transfer (where you want the money to come from).
  2. Then select Transfers from the main menu bar.
