Bank of Cyprus makes internet banking registration available online

The Bank of Cyprus has made 1Bank, its internet banking platform, available to all existing customers over the age of 18 without the need for an in-branch visit.

Customers who wish to register for 1Bank services can do so by visiting the 1Bank page and clicking on the ‘register to 1bank’ button.

The ability for 1Bank registration will also be introduced to the bank’s mobile application within the next few days.

To complete the registration process, customers will need the following details:

  • ID or Passport number (as submitted to the bank)
  • Mobile phone number already used by the bank
  • The last six (6) digits of the customer’s account number or credit card number

Once all details have been verified, the user will receive a confirmation that the registration has been successful, along with a user ID (visible on screen). A password will be configured via text (SMS).

Personal accounts will have full access capabilities (ability to transfer money), while joint accounts will only allow monitoring capabilities (e.g. viewing the account balance).

Should a registered user forget their password, the pre-existing User ID will be used and a new password will need to be set up via text (SMS).

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
