Ways to bank with us
There are two main ways you can bank with us; Internet Banking via a web browser or the Triodos Mobile Banking App. Both give you access to your accounts and our banking services.
Individual
New Internet Banking
Our new Internet Banking platform is an ongoing development. During its roll-out, some services and features will still need to be accessed via old style Internet Banking, so you may be directed back to the previous platform from time to time. We will always tell you when this will happen. Watch our short video to see the new Internet Banking experience.
Getting started
For help with registering, accessing and using Internet Banking see our FAQs and short video guides.
If you want to move all your everyday banking to Triodos, it’s easy, safe, and secure with the Current Account Switch Service - what's more there is a seven-day switch guarantee. You can find out all about the service here.
Ready to switch?
Simply log in to your Mobile App, go to ‘More’ then ‘Account Settings’ and tap on ‘Switching Service’ to start your switch.
Alternatively, you can log in to Internet Banking, click on 'Self service' and use the quick links to ‘Switch current account’, which will take you to the switch form in old Internet Banking.
Watch our how-to video on switching your current account.

You can send money from your Personal current account via Internet Banking or the Mobile App.
There are daily limits set depending on the type of payment and how you authorise the payment. The Faster Payment limit is cumulative and includes all amounts authorised on that day, even payments set for a future date. You are able to make multiple Faster Payments a day, but once the daily limit is reached, the payment needs to be made as a CHAPS payment, with a fee of £20.00.
See below for the daily authorisation limits for Faster Payments and CHAPS.
Faster Payments (Free of charge)
Digipass - Up to £20,000
Mobile App passcode - Up to £250
CHAPS (£20 fee)
Digipass - Up to £3m
Mobile App passcode - Up to £250
If you opened your account through the Mobile App and went through the ID and selfie check you can authorise payments up to £20,000 with your mobile passcode.
If you are making payments above £20,000 there are new daily payment limits. Please click here for more information.

You can request a temporary increase to your account daily payment limit in either Internet Banking or the Triodos Mobile App. You can increase your limit up to £2 million for Savings Accounts, or £3 million for the Personal Current Account. You can set your higher daily payment limit for up to seven days.
Personal Current Account Payments
When paying another account with another bank, for payments over £20,000 you will need to request a temporary payment limit increase. Once you’ve made the request for the temporary limit increase it can take a minimum of four hours for it to take effect. CHAPS payments must be made before 2pm if they need to be received by the end of that working day. Foreign payments must be made before 1pm if they need to be sent that day, but please be aware they can take up to 10 working days to arrive. We therefore recommend you make the temporary daily limit change the day before to ensure you can make the CHAPs or foreign payment on time. You can set the maximum temporary limit increase of £3 million for up to seven days.
For payments over £250,000 : If you do not have a digipass, once you have authorised the payment in Mobile App or Internet Banking you will have to call our contact team to go through extra security checks.
As with all payments, please check the bank details you are paying to are genuine and correct before making the payment.
Savings Account Payments
If you want to make a payment for more than £20,000 you will need to request a temporary limit increase and wait a minimum of four hours before you can make the payment. You can set the temporary limit increase for up to seven days and the maximum you can pay is up to £2 million per day. Payments over £100,000 in one day will have to be made as a CHAPS payment with a fee of £20.
If you are paying more than £20,000 in one go from your Savings Account to your Personal Current Account, to then make a CHAPS payment of over £20,000 to another bank account, you will need to increase the payment limit on both of your accounts.
How to make the temporary payment limit increase
You will be able to make the temporary limit increase in the Triodos Mobile Banking App or via Internet Banking if you have a username / password or digipass.
In the Mobile App go to ‘More’ then ‘Account Settings’ and select the account you wish to apply the temporary change to. From there, choose ‘Daily limit per transaction’ and fill in the temporary change with the amount and for how long you’d like this temporary change to be available.
Watch our short video on how to make a temporary daily payment limit change in the Mobile App
In Internet Banking go to ‘Old Internet Banking’, select ‘Account Profile’ then ‘Account Settings’, here you can request the temporary payment limit change. This is not available if you are using Mobile Secure Key.
You will need to authorise the change either by digipass, password or mobile passcode.
Once you’ve submitted the request you’ll need to wait four hours before it goes live, we’ll send you an email confirmation once it has.

We are still looking at developing this functionality, but our size and sustainable focus mean it may take us longer than some other banks to add such features.
