How do I get my mobile device to access the internet?

Do you guarantee that mobile banking is secure?
Yes, RBC Mobile is covered by the Online Banking Security Guarantee, which protects your account against unauthorized activity.

What can I do to protect my security and privacy?
Just like when you bank online from your computer, there are some simple steps you should take to ensure the security of your information and protect your privacy when you use the RBC mobile app.
- Protect your password. It is your key to accessing your accounts. Do not reveal it to anyone.
- Memorize your password. Never store it on your mobile device, or write it on paper that you keep near your phone or carry with you.
- Don’t choose passwords that incorporate your name, telephone number, address or birthday or those of any close friend or relative.
- Never leave your mobile device unattended while using the RBC mobile app.
