How we Protect You

Keeping your personal and financial information safe is a full time job. Read all about the steps we take to safeguard your information and your account.

Protecting you from fraud

To keep our customers safe and secure, we utilise some of the best processes and technology available. Here are a few of the ways we keep you safe and secure.

Fraud managment

Our fraud management system can identify unusual activity on your credit card. If a suspicious transaction is detected, our fraud experts will be alerted so they can take appropriate action.

Protection against ID theft

All customer applications are screened for potential ID theft. We will proactively contact you in the event we suspect fraud has taken place using your personal details.

Specialised Fraud Solutions Team

In the unfortunate event of a fraudulent transaction on your account, our Fraud Solutions team will work with you to resolve the matter as quickly as possible.

Immediate fraud contact systems

If we detect a possible fraudulent transaction on your account, we may confirm the transaction with you by SMS or phone, giving you an added level of security against fraudulent transactions.

Online Account Security

Mobile App Security

  • Our mobile app enables you to use Face ID or fingerprint to login for an extra layer of security.
  • We may ask you for further verification when you perform certain activities such as entering a SMS code.
  • We keep our mobile app security up to date. Turn on automatic updates to make sure you always have the latest version available.

Latitude Service Centre Security

  • We'll automatically log you out of your account if there's been no activity for a certain period of time. It's designed to protect your information and identity.
