Connecting to the EFG eBanking website

Get direct access to your money 24/7

To be in full control of your money, you need access to it whenever you want, wherever you are. Which is why we’re here to help you connect to your account online.

1. Access to the eBanking website

EFG eBanking can be accessed from the EFG International website portal by clicking on the “eBanking” button available at the right of your screen.

Alternatively, you can connect by navigating directly to the secure eBanking address:

Start your browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari etc.)
Enter the address https://ebanking.efginternational.com

To access eBanking, a combination of a username, password and code generated by the token (soft or hard) needs to be submitted.

Your credentials can be provided by the bank only.

NB: eBanking website is available on computers and tablets only.

2. Security

The security of your eBanking access and your transactions is one of our major concerns.

Please refer to the following page Security information to learn more about EFG Bank’s commitments in terms of security.

Preferences are accessible from the top right corner of your eBanking screen.

This option allows you to define your preferences and to customise your eBanking interface.

“General preferences”: set your preferred language, date format, time zone and favourite currency.
“Notifications”: set a private email address for communication purposes.
If you set an email address at this level, you will be notified at this email address when an Banking message is sent to you.
“Paperless”: set paperless option on your accounts.
Once activated, all documents currently sent to your physical address via post will be stored in your eDocuments application.

You can activate the paperless option only if you have an individual signature on the account.
