First, visit the login page at login. You can also access the portal through your mobile browser. The sign-in process is straightforward, but if you get stuck, our team is available 24/7. Initially we tried a simplified login flow but found it confused older users, so we added a step-by-step tutorial.

Navigate to login on your desktop or mobile browser.
- Enter your credentials
Use your member number and password, or tap your fingerprint on the mobile app.

Security and regulatory compliance
Security is the top priority for scu online banking, which uses 256-bit encryption and two-factor authentication.
The platform adheres to guidelines from the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI) and the FCAC. This method does NOT apply to accounts held outside the participating credit union network, so members must confirm eligibility before using the portal. We have also implemented fraud monitoring that flags unusual activity, alerting customers within seconds.
