How iBanFirst keeps your payments safe

Safety comes to life across the platform — from authentication to multi-step approvals, all the way to executing payments, FX, and more.
app-ibf-def-image

Verify every critical action

Strong two-factor authentication (2FA) via the iBanFirst Authenticator mobile app or SMS protects the moments that matter most. Login attempts, financial transactions, currency exchanges, forward payment contract take-ups, beneficiary creation, and new user onboarding all require secure approval — keeping fraudulent access out.
approvers-control

Control who can do what

Define user rights and multi-step approval workflows that mirror your internal governance. You decide who views, who initiates, who approves — with thresholds that adapt to transaction type, size or entity.
connection-activity

Spot suspicious connection activity

View connected devices, login timestamps, locations, operating systems, and browser details directly in the platform. Detect unusual access patterns early and revoke sessions instantly if something looks off.
add-a-beneficiary-form

Send funds with confidence

Before money leaves your account, iBanFirst verifies beneficiary details against official bank records across the Eurozone. You immediately see if there’s a match, helping prevent misdirected transfers and authorised push-payment fraud. In France, you can personalise your IBAN to make fraudulent payment requests easier to recognise.
protected

Rest assured. Your data is protected.

All sensitive data on iBanFirst is encrypted in transit and at rest, helping prevent unauthorised access to account, beneficiary, and transaction information. This preserves confidentiality as your team operates across countries, entities, and devices.

When companies move money internationally, security can’t be an afterthought. At iBanFirst, it’s engineered into the platform from the ground up: strong by default, without slowing teams down, and adaptable to different business structures."

Secure and reliable above all

    Frequently asked questions

    Are my funds secure with iBanFirst?

    iBanFirst is regulated as a payment institution as per the European PSD2 directive, which strictly regulates how payment institutions, such as iBanFirst, operate and manage client funds and payments. For instance, under the PSD2 directive, funds must be segregated from the payment institution's own funds and held at a custodian bank. Cash reserves must be held to guarantee the payment institution's solvency. Both measures guarantee that, in the unlikely event of iBanFirst’s insolvency, client funds would remain safe and secure and would be returned to the clients.
    Yes. iBanFirst allows you to define payment validation rules that mirror how your team operates. You can separate who initiates payments from who approves them, require one or multiple signatures, and apply approval thresholds based on payment amounts or user roles.
    iBanFirst verifies beneficiary details before funds are sent to a Eurozone recipient, checking that the account information matches the intended account holder in line with European payment security regulations. The verification runs automatically when a beneficiary is added and when a payment is initiated, and returns a clear match, partial match, or no-match result before execution. This helps reduce payment errors and authorised push-payment fraud without slowing down the process.
