We ask everyone who opens a The Vault Pocket account to give us their BVN (Bank Verification Number) and a valid ID issued by the government (driver’s license, voter’s card, national ID card or NIN slip). This helps us prevent identity fraud by confirming that everyone who uses The Vault Pocket, including you, is who they say they are.
We use the highest level of encryption to protect your personal information including your identity and confidential account details. We don’t share your information with unauthorised third parties, we would never sell your information and we don’t use your BVN to access any other bank account(s) you may have.
When you’re opening your The Vault Pocket account, we ask that you create a password (with any combination of letters, numbers and special characters) to secure your account. We may ask for your password to authorise any changes you make to your account information.
It’s mandatory for anyone opening a The Vault Pocket account to take a photo of their face during the account opening process so that we can confirm they’re opening the account themselves. This also helps prevent identity fraud.
Every The Vault Pocket account is secured with a unique four-digit PIN that only the account holder should have access to. You can’t use your The Vault Pocket account without first setting your sign-in PIN. Your transactions on the app are also secured with a transaction PIN, and your The Vault Pocket Card has its own four-digit PIN.
We send you real time alerts (in the form of text notifications and emails) for transactions on your account. This keeps you up to date on what’s happening with your money.
