All of our Swiss bank accounts offer Internet banking services.

What is Internet banking?
Internet banking gives you access to your bank account with computer connected to the Internet:

  • From anywhere in the world
  • 24 hours a day
  • Confidentially

What can I do with Internet banking?
Each account offers different functions. These are the most common ones:

  • Check account balance
    It's the most common and frequently used function. All of our accounts provide this service.
  • Check most recent entries
    The list of the last transactions for your account. All of our accounts provide this service.
  • International bank transfers
    This is the most powerful function. It allows you to make bank transfers from your Swiss account to bank accounts anywhere in the world and in many different currencies. To do so, you need to know the name and address of the receiving bank, its SWIFT number, the name and address of the recipient and his or her account number. It is the safest and fastest way to transfer money from your account.
  • E-broking
    Most of our accounts allow you to invest on the stock market (NYSE, NASDAQ, London, Paris, Frankfurt and other international stock exchanges) by placing orders over the Internet. The brokerage fees are very reasonable and the orders are placed very quickly (even instantaneously in the case of the NASDAQ or the Swiss Stock Exchange).

How secure are my transactions?
All of your transactions are encrypted using a military-based technology.
Internet access to your account is protected by a coding system. You will need to enter several passwords:

  • your agreement number.
  • your personal password.
  • a code that is unique to each session and determined by a strike list or a smart card that generates a new security number every minute.

Can I access Internet banking from my country?
That depends on where you live.
Some countries restrict the use of encryption. If you live in one of these countries, several of our bank partners will refuse to offer you Internet access to your account.

Don't hesitate to contact us for further information or to determine together the account that will provide you with the Internet access you need.
