How to Protect Your Pin

Important Tips on how you can safeguard and protect your PIN

  • Never use the same PIN for other financial or non-financial services.
  • Do not choose a PIN that is easily guessed, like your telephone number, NRIC number, date of birth, User ID, or other associated data.
  • Do select a robust and unique PIN to make it difficult for anyone to guess.
  • Avoid using sequential numbers or the same number more than twice.
  • Do not reveal your PIN to anyone.
  • Do not share your PIN with others.
  • Memorise your PIN. Do not write down your PIN or store it in computer hard-disk, diskette, mobile phone or other insecure means.
  • Do not use your PIN when someone else can see you keying it in.
  • Change your PIN regularly.
  • Change your PIN immediately if you suspect it has been exposed to others or the moment you suspect any unauthorised access.
