Security measures

To provide you comprehensive security protection when you set up an autopay with your Citi bank account, we've adopted a robust authentication process. Your autopay will only be effective when it's successfully authenticated by you.

  • Set up autopay via Citi Mobile® App or Citibank Online: When you submit an autopay instruction, you'll need to enter your Citi Mobile® Token unlock code to perform transaction signing. Simply set up your Citi Mobile® Token in advance, and we'll guide you through when you submit the autopay.
  • Set up an autopay via an e-wallet or another bank's platform: Once we receive the set-up request from the external party, we'll send you an SMS and ask you to confirm the autopay instruction via Citi Mobile® App or Citibank Online. You will have 1 day to confirm it, so act fast!
