Device Binding

1. What is mobile device binding?

Mobile device binding is a security measure that links your AmOnline profile to your personal mobile device.

2. How can I perform mobile device binding?

You must have your AmOnline credentials and active Debit/Credit Card to proceed. If you do not have AmOnline credentials, refer to “Register for AmOnline” for details.

Alternatively, follow below steps to bind your device:

  1. Log in with your AmOnline credentials.
  2. Grant access to biometric login.
  3. Grant access to push notification. We strongly recommend you to enable push notification so you can receive timely and important notifications such as: AmSecure Authorisation, transaction status and important announcements.
  4. Enter the TAC that is sent to your registered mobile number.
  5. After successful authentication, your AmOnline profile will be bound to your mobile device.
  6. Effective March 2025, if you are binding AmOnline to your mobile device for the first time, or switching to a new device and binding AmOnline to it, you must activate AmSecure at any AmBank ATM.
Important Note: Please ensure that you bind your AmOnline profile to your personal mobile device only (not to someone else’s device).
3. How do I activate AmSecure at AmBank ATM?

If you have AmBank Debit/Credit Card, when you launch AmOnline App, a message (refer image below) will be displayed to you, tap on the message and follow the instructions accordingly. Refer AmSecure Activation via ATM for more details.

4. What if I only have loan/financing account, how do I activate AmSecure?
