Fill and return the Internet Banking Form there at the bank, and then wait for them to set it up for you and give you your login details.

Ensure you maximize the benefits of Internet Banking with GTBank, by applying for the token device at the same time. A Token is a small security hardware like a key holder that generates a set of numbers which will enable secure transfers via the Internet banking platform. It generates a random password which will then be keyed in after the password to enable transfer. It's simply a small electronic device which helps secure your online banking transactions. GTBank Token device gives you optimal protection against online thefts, hackers and fraudsters. It is the key that grants you full access to carry out 3rd party transfers and payments online via the GTBank Internet Banking platform anywhere in the world.
You need the GTBank token device to activate your Internet banking account and also need it for your subsequent transactions in order to further secure your account from unauthorized transfers. The set of numbers generated should be entered when you are doing any transaction on the GTBank website.
GTBank will debit N2,100 or so for the Token device once you log into their site and activate your Internet Banking account (or Naira MasterCard). You will get the Token device that very day you apply for it (or they will ask you to come back for it another day) together with a PIN. You will also be provided your default Internet Banking login details (Username/User ID and Password). You need to change this PIN while activating your Internet Banking account on their site. You also need to generate a secret question and answer to enable your transactions.
