Have your Digipass handy. 3. Think of a six-digit code. 4. Set notifications to βonβ. That way, you will be informed when, for example, a payment cannot go through. 5. Place the appβs icon on your main screen or with your other payment apps. Like to know more? Visit https://www.bankvanbreda.be/dagelijks-bankieren/vanbredaonline/faq/faq-smartphone.
