A Better Online Banking Experience - Coming Soon
Introducing UBU's Digital Banking Upgrade on March 3, 2021
In recent years, we have taken an even closer look at our services and decided that we could do better- that you, our customer, deserved better. We immediately got to work and started researching what we could do to provide you with a better banking experience, and we are pleased to let you know that great things are on the horizon for UBU’s online banking users. In the upcoming months, our online banking and mobile banking apps are getting an upgrade – an intuitive, customer-focused interface, enhanced security measures, and new and improved features.
Take a look at the information below to learn more about what this new platform holds for users, important information to know through this transition, frequently asked questions, and a sneak peek to the new digital banking system!
Important Things to Know Prior to March 3, 2021
Updated Contact Information Helps Us and You
The upgraded system has new features to protect your accounts and personal information - and updated contact information helps the system do its best job. Additionally, the new digital banking system will ask you to verify your identity the first time you log in - you'll want updated contact information on file to have a seamless login experience!
You can verify that your information is up-to-date by logging into your online banking and viewing your information stored in your Profile.

NEW: A Security Feature For All Users: Secure Access Codes
Secure Access Codes are one of the new features of the upgraded digital banking system. A Secure Access Code (SAC) is an additional security measure used to verify your identity when logging into your account for the first time from a new device. Using your information on file, you will choose whether to receive a text, phone call, or email with a 6-digit code that you will use when logging in. This SAC process is an example of why having updated customer
NOTE: This SAC will not be required until the new system goes live on March 3, 2021. Secure Access Codes will not affect the current online banking login process. Helpful Hint: Update your contact information prior to March 3, for quick & convenient access to the new Digital Banking System! Head to our Update Customer Contact information page to learn more.
NEW & IMPROVED: Account Alerts
Alerts will be offered in the new platform, but have undergone a serious upgrade! More extensive alert types and abilities will be offered than ever before. Choose from Account, History, Online, and Calendar alerts and choose what delivery method works best for you - whether it's a text, a phone call, a secure message to your digital banking inbox, or an email. NOTE: Alerts that were previously established with online banking will need to be re-configured in the new system. Due to the new capabilities and features of Alerts, we are asking all customers to re-establish any existing alerts and to take a look at all the new options as well. ATTENTION: Current BillPay Users
BillPay will not be accessible to customers between Thursday, February 25 @ 8:00 AM - Wednesday, March 3 @ 7:59 AM. We apologize in advance for the inconvenience, but this period of unavailability is necessary as we migrate data and information (including vendor, payments, and historical data) from the old online banking system to the new digital banking platform.
Helpful Hint: For payments during the window of unavailability, future date your payments prior to Thursday February 25. New payments cannot be submitted by customers during this window, but you can opt to "schedule" a payment for any day in this window, as long as it is submitted PRIOR to February 25.
What if I forget to schedule a payment to be paid during this window? Is there anything I can do for an exception? ATTENTION: Browser Compatibility Update - Upgrade Your Internet Browser, Too
The new Digital Banking system is optimized to work with Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Apple Safari. Internet Explorer is not compatible with the new system. If you currently use Internet Explorer, update your Internet Browser now so that you have no issues accessing your accounts on March 3. Modern browsers such as Edge, Chrome, Firefox, and Safari, have greater security measures than Internet Explorer - this is among the many reasons why we are asking customers to upgrade their browsers if they currently use Internet Explorer.
We have compiled a convenient list of browser downloads for you to utilize, if necessary. Click the Browser Upgrade button below to learn more.
ATTENTION: Potential Quicken/Quickbooks/Mint Connection Disruption
- Quicken Win/Mac Express Web Connect
- QuickBooks Online Express Web Connect
- Mint

Accessing the New Digital Banking via Desktop and Mobile App | Available On/After March 3, 2021 @ 8:00 AM
On March 3, 2021, you will visit our website like normal and use the login portal like you normally would.

Not sure what your Username is? Contact us at 636-583-2555 and we can provide that for you.
If you have automatic app updates established in your device settings, your app will automatically update on Wednesday, March 3. If you do not have automatic updates, you will have to go to the app store to download the new United Bank of Union application. The new app is easily distinguished from the old app because our app icon is getting an upgrade too! You'll want to download the app with a white background that says "UBU" with a torch. Once installed on your device, follow the login prompts to gain access to the new digital system! Use your current Username and enter a Secure Access Code to set a new password and enter your customer portal.
