Banking secrecy
Keeping you safe from fraud is one of our top priorities. By answering our questions accurately, you help us maintain security.
This is why we ask you so many questions
We ask a series of questions when you become a Mynt customer, and we continue to do this during client conversations by phone or via our help centre. We know that most of our customers are honest, but to help us identify the few who aren’t, we ask everyone questions without exception. Your answers will help prevent criminal activity.
Legal requirements and social responsibility
We are required by law to maintain details of our customers and understand how they use certain financial services. We take our social responsibility very seriously. We work to protect our customers, our company, and society at large from criminal activity, combating money laundering, trafficking, drug trafficking, the financing of terrorism, illegal arms trafficking, tax evasion and more.
Therefore, in personal conversations with our customers, by letter, and after logging in to the Mynt online bank and our mobile bank, we regularly ask questions about our customers' banking transactions. Not all customers receive the questions at the same time, and questions may vary.
We ask these questions because they are a legal requirement and part of our company's social responsibility to counter criminal activity. We thank you for your understanding.
Has your web platform or mobile app been blocked?
When customers repeatedly choose not to answer questions they have received from Mynt, we must temporarily block their online banking or mobile banking. By law, we are not allowed to provide banking services to customers we do not know. The block will be lifted once the customer has answered our questions and verified their identity.
Are you using a secure connection?
Before you provide personal data or other important information online, you should check that your connection is secure and encrypted. Only proceed when you are sure.
Be on your guard – always
Unfortunately, criminals regularly try to exploit bank customers. However, there are things you can do to help fight crime. Never let anyone else use your Mynt account. Make sure your computer is properly protected, and be on your guard when you receive emails from unknown senders or you are prompted to click on links.
