Using the setup wizard in e-banking, you can easily block all countries to which you haven't yet transferred any money – and you can change this any time.

You can restrict the use of your Maestro card by geographical location, choosing to use it worldwide, in Europe or only in Switzerland and Liechtenstein. That’s one example of how you can further protect yourself against the misuse of your card.

You can determine a monthly transfer limit for payments made via e-banking and the Mobile Banking app.

You can deactivate online payments for individual accounts if you have several of them.

Stay informed of account activity and card transactions via push notifications, text messages or e-mail. That way, you’ll always stay on top of your banking.

For security reasons, confirm new recipients once with the Access Card. This card is not connected to the internet and is therefore protected against malware.

Good to know: some payment recipients have already been checked and approved by UBS.  That includes, for example, most telephone and health insurance companies.

In your settings, you can also determine a monthly limit (a maximum of CHF 3,000) for which you want to forgo the additional confirmation.
