Tip: download the code app on several mobile devices to ensure that you can continue banking even if you lose or break your primary device.

What should be done if you switch phones or your phone is lost?

• Log in to your Nordea Business netbank with the codes app of your old mobile device or with a code calculator.  If you cannot log in to the Netbank, please contact Nordea Business Centre.
• Download the code app from an app store to your new mobile device.
• Note that you need both the one-time activation code and the temporary PIN code for the activation. 
• NB If you enter the activation code before the temporary PIN code has arrived, the activation code will no longer work.

If possible, download the code app on more than one mobile device. 

PIN code

• Only you know your PIN code.
• The code is both application- and device-specific.
• If you enter an incorrect PIN code five times in a row, the app will be locked for 24 hours.
• The PIN code will not be saved on the mobile device. The PIN code will be erased from the device memory as soon as the app has finished calculating one-time codes

Codes

• The app sends one-time codes to the bank in the background.
  
• There are three types of one-time codes depending on usage: Login, Confirmation and Identification.
• The codes are single-use and transaction-specific.
• The codes used for confirmation are time-bound.

Mobile device

• The code app is tied to the device. If someone tries to copy the app to another device, the copied version will not work.
• The other apps in a mobile device cannot access the information of the code app.
• If the device's data security is broken, the code app's information will be automatically deleted.

Connection

The connection between the code app and Nordea is SSL/TLS encrypted.

The Nordea code app works on Apple and Android devices in following versions:

• iOS 10 or later
