Setting up online banking if you are a new member

Click it and enter your member number (found on your debit card or account statement), your Social Security number, and your date of birth to verify your identity.
After verification, you will create your username and password. Choose a username you can remember — many members use their email address. Your password must be strong: at least eight characters with uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and a special character like ! or #.
Once registration is complete, you can log in when ready using the credentials you just created. Your account will show all linked checking and savings accounts, loans, and credit lines you hold with A+ Federal Credit Union.

Click the "Forgot Password" link on the A+ Federal Credit Union login page. Enter your username or the email address associated with your account. A+ will send a password reset link to that email address within a few minutes.

Follow the same rules as before: at least eight characters, mixing uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and a special character. Once you submit the new password, you can log in right away.
If you do not receive the reset email within 10 minutes, check your spam or junk folder. If it is not there, contact A+ Federal Credit Union directly by phone or visit a branch in person to verify your identity and reset your password manually.

The first time you log in on a new device, A+ may ask you to verify your identity with a code sent to your phone or email. This is a security step to prevent unauthorized access.

Troubleshooting common login problems
If you see an error message saying "Username or password incorrect," double-check that you are typing both correctly. Passwords are case-sensitive, meaning capital letters matter. If you are sure you typed it right, use the "Forgot Password" link to reset it.
If your account is locked after several failed login attempts, A+ will temporarily block further tries to protect your account. Wait 15 to 30 minutes, then try again. If the account remains locked, call A+ Federal Credit Union's member service line or visit a branch to unlock it.

Security tips for your A+ Federal Credit Union login
Never share your username or password with anyone, including A+ staff. A+ will never ask for your password by email, phone, or text. If someone claiming to be from A+ asks for this information, hang up or delete the message and call A+ directly using the number on your debit card or statement.
Use a unique password for your A+ account — do not use the same password you use for email, social media, or other websites. If one of those accounts is hacked, a thief could use the same password to access your bank account.
Log out when you are finished, especially on a shared computer. Close the browser window or tap the logout button in the app. Do not leave your account open unattended, even briefly.
