Mobile Banking FAQ

General

What is Mobile Banking? Is there a fee?

Mobile Banking is a way to access your banking and debit card activity information through your mobile device. Freedom Bank does not charge a fee for the service, but your mobile carrier’s message and data rates may apply.

Bill Pay

Can I pay bills using my mobile phone?

You may pay your bills as long as you are already set up with Bill Pay through Online Banking. You can only pay existing payees through the Mobile App; to add new payees, you must visit your Online Banking account.

Mobile Deposit

What kinds of checks can I deposit with the Mobile App?

We can accept most domestic checks, including personal, business, and payroll checks. We are unable to accept counter checks, checks in excess of the daily limit, third-party checks, cashier’s checks, money orders, travelers checks, US Treasury checks, Savings Bonds, foreign checks, checks in a foreign currency, or substitute checks (Image Replacement Documents), through the Mobile App. These items can be deposited at our physical location or by mail.

How should a check be endorsed for mobile deposit?

Include the phrase “Freedom Bank Mobile Deposit” with your signature on the back of the check. Checks missing this endorsement may be rejected.

Why would a mobile deposit be rejected?

There could be a number of reasons why a deposit is rejected, including:

  • Deposit exceeds your current daily deposit limit
  • Check type is ineligible for deposit through the Mobile App
  • Check was previously deposited (duplicate item)
  • The check is missing an endorsement or has an improper endorsement
  • Poor image quality

Depending on the reason for the rejection, a pop up message may display notifying you of the error prior to submission. If a deposit is rejected after submission for any reason, the transaction will remain in the Deposit History display of the Mobile App with a status of “Failed”. Please contact us at 406-892-1776 if you are unaware of the reason for a deposit rejection.

How do I increase my daily deposit limit?

Please contact us at 406-892-1776 to discuss raising your daily deposit limit.

What do I do with the paper check?

Please keep the paper check until the funds have posted to your account. After the funds have successfully cleared, write “VOID” on the front of the check and dispose of the check, ideally by shredding the paper check.

Security

What happens if I forget my password?

You are allowed 3 attempts to enter the correct password before your account will be locked. If you cannot remember your password and/or you are locked out of the system, please call 406-892-1776 during regular business hours.

How do I utilize biometric authentication, such as Touch ID®, Face ID®, or fingerprint authentication?

After logging into the Mobile App, navigate to the “More” menu item. If you device is compatible, under the “Settings” section you will see an option for Touch ID, Face ID, or Fingerprint Login. Choose that menu item and turn the slider on the right side of the page to “on”. The next time you access the Mobile App, you will be prompted to use your biometric authentication.

What if my Mobile Device is lost or stolen?

If your Mobile Device is lost or stolen, no one can access your account without knowing your password. To prevent unauthorized access to your account, you can deactivate your device through Online Banking so it is no longer associated with your account.

How can I help keep my account information safe and secure?

In addition to the security measures described above you can take the following steps to further protect your personal and account information on your mobile devices:

  • Apply password protection to your mobile device.
  • Use strong password information that will only allow you to access your mobile device.
  • Do not leave your mobile devices unattended when signed into the Mobile App.
