Personal Online Banking

Online Banking requires:

• A Coulee Bank account.
• Internet access with a 128-bit encrypted browser.

Stop-in to one of our Coulee Bank locations for an application, or review the disclosures and apply online here.

Yes. You can use our Online Banking service from any computer that has internet access and a 128-bit encrypted browser. For security reasons, if you do access your online bank account from a location other than your primary login location, you will be asked to answer a security question that you set-up earlier.

• Enter your Home Branch ID: please use the ID provided in the e-mail you received (if you no longer have access to this e-mail, please contact us).
• Enter your Home Branch PIN: please refer to the e-mail you received (if you no longer have access to this e-mail, please contact us)
• Click on the "Login" button.
• You will then be prompted to change your PIN.

Home Branch customers are required to login to their account every 60 days, or their account may be deactivated. For security reasons and identity theft protection, Coulee Bank strongly recommends review of your account transactions on a regular basis.

Absolutely. Each time you log-in to Online Banking, a secure connection is opened to the bank. This connection is protected using a "Secure Sockets Layer," or SSL, which is a security protocol that prevents eavesdropping, tampering, and message forgery over the internet. We offer additional protection to our online users with our firewall technology. Our firewalls monitor all data traffic to and from your online account, ensuring that only known users are able to gain access. The full SSL specification can be reviewed here. Finally, our system will log the IP address from which you normally log-in and if a login attempt is made from an unusual location you will be asked a security question that you set-up earlier. (Please note: we will not install spyware onto your computer, but simply log the IP address of the computer you are using.)

Your accounts are secured by the individual ID and PIN that you select. Do not share this information with anyone you do not want to have access to your accounts.

If you forget your ID or forget your PIN and have not set-up your PIN Reset call us at (608) 784-9550 and we will assist you. To set-up your PIN Reset or to use PIN Reset after you have set it up, follow the direction below.
