Open banking makes use of highly secure technologies. Here are a few additional precautions you may take to ensure your online safety:
Find out if the app or website is regulated by checking whether it is listed on our regulated providers page or on the registry of regulatory authorities.
Remember to read the fine print - always review the terms and conditions before agreeing to grant access to your data to an unregulated app or website.
Check your bank account - if you see anything that doesn't appear to be quite right, call your bank or building society immediately to report it.
