Step 1: Getting Ready
To ensure the transition to the new Online and Mobile Banking system is as smooth as possible, please take a few moments to complete the following steps to prepare:
- Update your Internet browser. An updated browser is the gateway to a better and more secure online financial experience. It is vital to use the most current version of your preferred browser. Update your browser now.
- Update your email address, telephone number, and mobile number within your current FNBSM online banking system. It’s important we have this information so we can communicate with you about the planned upgrade, including sending your new Secure Access Code (SAC) so you can sign in to the United online banking system.
- Update financial software. If you utilize financial software such as Mint, Quicken®, or QuickBooks™, please reference the additional steps required to successfully download transactions from the new online banking system.
- Replace your mobile banking app. Delete your FNBSM mobile app from your devices on Friday October 20th. You may download and begin using the new United Community mobile app on Monday, October 23. Learn how to download on iPhone here and Android here.

It will allow you to log in and register your computer or mobile device. The SAC is only valid for a limited period of time.
