Banking online is easy. Online Banking works well on most of today's browsers. If your browser does not support these encryption levels, you'll need to update it. The computer operating systems and web browsers certified to access and navigate the Service are continually changing as operating system and web browser updates are introduced. We recommend using the most current operating system available to you on your PC. To get started, simply enroll to receive your log in information.

Mobile Text does not require a smartphone, however, a phone with SMS text messaging capabilities is needed. The Mobile Web and Mobile App do require a smartphone for use of the service(s). When using the Mobile Banking service, please note that there is no charge from Blackhawk Bank & Trust, but message and data rates may apply. Such charges include those from your mobile service provider. Any time you review your balance, keep in mind it may not reflect all transactions such as checks you have written but have not yet been posted to your account.

No extra software is necessary. You can access your Blackhawk Bank & Trust accounts from almost any PC that has Internet access. Adobe Acrobat Reader must be installed to view eStatements online.
