Digital Banking FAQs

The real-time convenience of Digital Banking just cannot be matched by anything else. Think about all of the situations where it can really come in handy:

• When you’re at the electronics store, and you see that big screen HDTV you absolutely just have to buy  – play it safe & make a quick check on your account balance and make sure you have enough money before you purchase
• How many times do you find yourself simply waiting around? If you’re waiting at the DMV, or waiting at the airport for your flight – this would be a great time to get in tune with your spending habits by checking and reviewing your transaction history
• When you’re out on vacation, out traveling, or simply have no computer access, you might have a bill you forgot to pay from home or a bill that is due very soon. Don’t cut it close. Ensure that you’re never late on any of your bills by making a quick and easy bill payment from your phone.
• Going out this Friday night and realize you’ll need some cash? Find your bank’s nearest ATM from wherever you are, which just might be at a convenient store a block away.

There are a few common errors that may cause your checks to be rejected:

• Folded or torn corners
• Front image is not legible
• Amounts not matching
• Routing and account numbers are unclear
• No camera on the device
• Image is too dark

Try using Mobile Deposit in a well lit area to prevent shadows and poor image quality. Keep your hands clear of the check while taking the picture.

After submitting images of the front and back of your check, you will receive onscreen confirmation that Heritage Bank has received your deposit. You will also have the option to email a confirmation number to yourself. At that time, your check will be processed by Heritage Bank staff. We will then email you a confirmation that your deposit has been accepted. Please see Heritage Bank’s Funds Availability Policy for more information about deposits. Please do not dispose of your check or attempt to process at another institution or through another channel (ATM or in-bank). Doing so will lead to this service being removed. You should hold onto your check for 30 days and then destroy or shred it.

Rest assured. Mobile is safe to use!

• Smartphones such as iPhones, Android and Blackberry have a very controlled and secure operating system
• Mobile Banking uses 128 bit SSL encryption just like Online Banking  – which basically encrypts and protects any transmission of data including customer account information
• Mobile Banking uses strong Firewalls just like Online Banking – which protects from unauthorized or malicious intrusion
• Mobile Banking uses your Username & Password for access, just like Online Banking. And just like with Online Banking, your account will lock down after so many incorrect attempts from your mobile device
• Mobile banking uses additional Security Q&A authentication for initial access to your account
• We strongly encourage you to secure your device by using a PIN or password to unlock your phone

Nobody wants their phone lost or stolen. But in the rare case that it does, you should know that your mobile banking access is secured.  

• No personal information from your Mobile Banking account is ever stored on the phone. Your password is never stored.
• Your login session automatically times out after a specific period of inactivity

You can disable mobile banking on your device at any time from within online banking. Or call us at 1-800-344-7048 during business hours. We can either un-enroll your device or suspend the service until you confirm the phone is actually lost.

The security of your financial information is very important to Heritage Bank.  When you log into myHeritage Bank Digital Banking for the first time, you will be prompted to enroll in DUO, our multi factor authentication (MFA) process, to help ensure access to your financial information is secure.   As you use the services within myHeritage Bank Digital Banking, MFA will be used in conjunction with various types of transactions.  You will also be given the opportunity to download the DUO app if you choose. Having the DUO app on your device is optional and the security of MFA will still be implemented, whether or not you have the DUO app.
