BPI's Mobile Key authentication tool - A first in local banking



BPI account holders can now apply and use the BPI's Mobile Key authentication tool via the BPI app and using their smartphone. You can use the Mobile Key to authenticate your online transaction using the BPI app to pay your bills or any mobile banking activities.
Mobile Key can be your face or fingerprint recognition , which is fast and more secured.
You just need an internet if you are abroad and when mobile network is not present.

Here are three reasons you should activate this latest security feature now:

1. It’s fast and convenient.
With Mobile Key, you can easily confirm your transaction with just a 6-digit nominated PIN, or your fingerprint. This means you only have to remember and secure this PIN for all your transactions, or opt to do the authentication with the fingerprint ID registered in your device.

2. You can authenticate transactions even without a mobile network.
No need to worry about not receiving your OTP via SMS. With your Mobile Key, you can still do your online transactions even when you’re in a place outside your telco provider’s coverage area, such as abroad, as long as you have a stable and safe internet connection.

3. Ensure your transactions are secure.
Mobile Key gives you the peace of mind knowing that you have a convenient way to ensure that all your transactions are authorized.

Enjoy this new functionality of the BPI Mobile app now. Just go to “Account Maintenance – Authentication” and toggle the Mobile Key button. Nominate a 6-digit PIN code and confirm this action by entering the OTP sent to your registered mobile number. Once activated, you will be asked whether you want to activate Touch ID – or your fingerprint ID – as an alternative to the 6-digit PIN.

This is just one of the security features that help protect your account. You now have the option to use your Mobile Key, or continue to receive OTP to authenticate your transactions.
