Online Banking & Support

The easiest way to move money to and from your FNBO Direct Accounts, is to use our "Transfer Funds" feature. Log in to your FNBO Direct account, and use the “Transfer Funds” widget located at the lower left of the “Accounts” tab and the “Payments & Transfers” tab. Select "Internal Transfer" or "External Transfer", which allows you to transfer money from your FNBO Direct Accounts or any of your linked accounts at other banks.

You can transfer funds to and from any FNBO Direct Account or any "External" linked accounts at other banks on which you are an authorized owner.

If you initiate the transfer before 10:00 pm cutoff CST, Monday through Friday, the transfer will be made the same business day. If it is initiated after the 10:00 pm cutoff or on a Saturday, Sunday or a holiday, the transfer will be made on the next business day.

If you initiate a transfer from your other bank account to an FNBO Direct account, the movement of funds from your other bank account will likely be done that same business day. These funds will travel through the standard ACH process and credit your FNBO Direct account typically within three business days.

Yes, your personal information and account data are protected by multiple independent security protocols: firewalls, data encryption and a multi-layered verification for your account. These create a secure electronic tunnel between your computer and FNBO Direct's system. FNBO Direct supports the use of 256-bit encryption technology, the most secure form of encryption currently available for commercial use over the Internet.

Email is an inexpensive and popular method for distributing fraudulent messages. Phishing is a form of email fraud. These fraudulent emails appear to come from legitimate companies with whom consumers do business. The goal of a fraudulent email is to obtain personal and/or financial information. FNBO Direct will never ask for you to verify or provide any personal or financial information within an email.

Fraudulent email will typically have a familiar company logo and resemble their Internet site. For added security FNBO Direct will display your first and last name with the last four digits of your account number in each email that comes from us. FNBO Direct emails will only come from the addresses listed below:

Service@FNBODirect.com

If you are ever in doubt, please Contact Us.

If personal information was provided and you suspect that the Web site, email, or pop up box may be fraudulent please Contact Us. If personal information was not provided and you suspect fraudulent Internet activity, please fill out a Report Internet Fraud form. To assist in our investigation further please keep record of as much information as possible. We may request that you forward the email to FNBO Direct or print it so that it may be forwarded to other agencies as well. You can also report suspicious calls, emails, and text messages to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.

Email addresses can be obtained from publicly available sources or through randomly generated lists. Therefore, if you receive a fake email that appears to be from FNBO Direct this does not mean that your email address, name, or any other information has been taken from FNBO Direct systems.

If you don't recognize the URL when you click a link in an email, you should open a new browser and type in an address you know. The majority of fraudulent email messages will link to fake copies of a legitimate site in which the URL is transposed by a couple of letters. If you are ever in doubt, please Contact Us.

FNBO Direct has many security measures and safeguards in place to ensure your accounts and credit are protected. We'd like to provide you with these tips so that we can work together to prevent fraud.

  • Use the latest version of internet browsers and email programs.
  • Review your email service provider's Security Policy. Or, have your email service provider explain their Security Policy. Be cautious about sharing personal information through email.
  • Do not open email attachments which you are not expecting; they may contain a virus that can infect your computer. Delete any unwanted email. And do not download programs from unknown sources.
  • If you are using a public computer, close your email program and browser before you leave.
  • If you are requested to provide personal information in response to an unsolicited email, contact the company represented in the email to determine its legitimacy.
