Mobile banking is part of everyday life for many of us. With just a few clicks, you can make transfers, check account balances or track savings goals – anytime and anywhere. But when it comes to money, a key question arises: how secure is mobile banking really? In this article, we take a look behind the scenes of modern security measures and show you how you can optimally protect your account.<\/p>\n

First things first:<\/p>\n

Is your money safe with Clanq?<\/h2>\n

Yes, it is.<\/p>\n

In Switzerland, Clanq AG is a reliable partner that works together with Corn\u00e8r Bank. Your money is protected by the Swiss deposit protection scheme esisuisse<\/strong>. This means that even in the unlikely event of bank insolvency, your deposits are protected up to CHF 100\u2019000 per customer<\/strong>. So you can be sure that your money is always in good hands with Clanq – no matter what happens.<\/p>\n

Reputable banks will never ask you to update your data via links in emails or text messages. If we actually need your data, you will receive a push notification via the app.<\/p>\n

Therefore, do not follow any links to any websites. Alarm bells should ring, especially for links without the \u2018s\u2019 in \u2018https\u2019. The \u2018s\u2019 stands for \u2018secure\u2019 and means that it is a secure page from a registered organisation.<\/p>\n

Tip 2: Secure password<\/h2>\n

The Clanq app only allows secure passwords. But you should also always choose a secure password for other services on the Internet.<\/p>\n

The requirements for a secure password are:<\/p>\n
