In today’s digital era, there’s always new technology hitting the market to solve our everyday problems. Secure online banking has streamlined how we send and receive money, and with digital statements, how we review our transactions can be streamlined as well. Senior Vice President Hadley DeFraia, director of digital and payment strategies, lists three main reasons to switch to digital statements if you haven’t yet:
Security, Security, Security
According to the US Postal Inspection Service, mail theft is on the rise. “Your sensitive account information is listed on your bank statements, so a physical copy of your bank statement circulating might increase the risk of your information falling into the wrong hands,” says DeFraia. Your HOMEBANK Digital Banking service offers a more secure way to view your statements.
Declutter
Our homes are already filled with the results of our online shopping habits, so there’s no reason to keep extra clutter around in the form of paper statements. What are you supposed to do with those statements at home anyway? How long should you keep them? File them? Shred them? All these questions are answered with HOMEBANK’s digital statements.
Easy to Find & Access
No need to search through boxes and files for the statement you’re looking for; your digital statements will be right at your fingertips in your Digital Banking account. DeFraia states that you will have access to each statement for 18 months, and you can print them during tax season or whenever you need them.
