Set up Postbank BestSign - this is how you proceed

If you want to make a transfer with your smartphone, you need a TAN, just like with online banking. With the Postbank app, however, the BestSign procedure is available to you. This means you no longer need a TAN.

How to set up Postbank BestSign

If you don't want to use a TAN all the time when transferring money via your smartphone, you can use Postbank's BestSign procedure. In this way, you can carry out transfers using a password of your own choice, the fingerprint scanner or also via the facial recognition of your smartphone.

1. First download the "Postbank Financial Assistant" app.
2. After installation, start the app. Then log in to the app with your online banking data.
3. Once you have logged in, close the app and restart it.
4. In the login window, you will see the item "BestSign" on the right-hand side. Click on it and then on "BestSign Settings".
5. Then follows "Register BestSign".
6. Now you still have to confirm a self-selected password and subsequently receive a "Seal One ID".
7. Now log in to your online banking on the PC. Gehen Sie auf „Kontoeinstellungen“ > „Sicherheitsverfahren“ > „BestSign“ > „Gerät/Postbank App (Finanzassistent) hinzufügen“.
8. Geben Sie eine Bezeichnung ein und Ihre „Seal One ID“.
9. Anschließend erhalten Sie in den nächsten Tagen per Post einen Aktivierungscode. Diesen müssen Sie im gleichen Fenster eingeben wie Ihre „Seal One ID“.
