How to Prepare for the Upgrade
Before the Upgrade
- Be prepared for downtime: Online Banking and our mobile app will be temporarily unavailable from February 6th to February 9th. Submit any essential transfers, payments, or requests beforehand.
- Download ACH and Wire details: We strongly recommend downloading any data and template details that you may need after the transition from our current platform. If you need assistance locating how to download your information, please contact your relationship manager or branch manager for assistance.
- Token users: Make sure you download our new token app and provide your token ID to your business’ senior admin to share with the bank. Our new token app can be found here: Symantec VIP - Two Factor Authentication Anywhere.
- Intuit QuickBooks and Quicken® backup: We recommend you back up your data and complete a final transaction download by February 5th.
- Review your alerts: Real-time alerts will be available on our new platform, but it will require you to opt back into the alerts that you want. We recommend reviewing the alerts you currently have in place to make sure you can add them after February 9th. This is a great opportunity to clean up any unwanted communications going forward.
After the Upgrade
- First-time login: Log in to our website at www.leaderbank.com or download our mobile app. You’ll receive a secure access code or token authentication and then be prompted to reset your password. Our mobile apps can be downloaded in advance of the upgrade:
- Relink your connected services & apps: If you’ve linked your accounts to services like Quicken® and TurboTax® using your Online Banking login, you’ll need to disconnect/reconnect your accounts. If you linked your account using your routing and account number, no action is needed.
- Set up biometric login: Re-enable facial or fingerprint login in the new app for faster access. Note – if you have a personal banking profile, you will only be allowed to set up biometrics for one login. You can toggle to standard login to switch between personal and business profiles on the mobile app.
- Confirm your data: After successfully logged in, review your ACH and Wire details to make sure everything is carried over how you needed. If you have any concerns or issues, reach out to your relationship manager or branch manager for assistance.
