Take care with your One Time Passcodes
There’s more than one way to pay with your card. Why not try contactless payment for transactions up to £100? Or leave the wallet at home and use your digital wallet on your phone and wearable devices. Whether you’re paying online or in-store you can make safe, quick and convenient payments without needing to carry cash. We've introduced new ways you can get paid back within the Ulster Bank app, through Request money and Split the bill.

Be fraud aware
We’re always on the lookout for transactions that seem a bit strange. So we might occasionally ask you to approve your online card payment in your Ulster Bank app or by entering a one-time passcode (OTP) before the money leaves your account.
Treat these codes like your card PIN and never share them with anyone - even the bank, police, or any other trusted organisation.
Never approve a card payment in your mobile app that you haven't made yourself or that someone else has asked you to approve - this is a scam.
