Trust is a record, not a claim

Every bank says it is secure. We publish the incident archive, the capital position and the fraud statistics so you can check rather than believe.

Account security

The four layers between a criminal and your money

Each layer is independent, so the failure of one does not create a path to your balance.

Passkeys by default

FIDO2 and platform biometrics. Phishable SMS one-time codes have been removed entirely.

Behavioural interception

Payee age, device, typing rhythm and channel modelled together to intercept scams in progress.

Session integrity

Device binding, session revocation from any device, and re-authentication before sensitive changes.

Infrastructure

Active-active in London and Dublin, encrypted at rest and in transit, keys in HSMs.

Financial crime

Friction placed precisely, not sprayed everywhere

Our research across 2.1 million flagged payments found payee relationship age outperformed transaction value as a fraud predictor by a factor of four. Warnings now follow the evidence.

  • Named-pattern warnings

    We tell you which scam pattern we detected and ask a question the script cannot answer.

  • Confirmation of Payee

    Account name verified with the receiving bank before any new payee can be saved.

  • Reimbursement, not argument

    Where you are the victim of an authorised push payment scam and took reasonable care, we reimburse within five working days.

  • Case ownership

    One named investigator from report to resolution, reachable directly.

If something is wrong

Freeze first, ask questions after

You can freeze every card and revoke every session from any device in one tap. Nothing is charged, nothing is lost, and unfreezing takes a second once you are sure.
