iPhone Android


The Log-In Process

Let’s get started.

Step One Go to AACreditUnion.org and go to the Online Banking Login window shown below. You can also log in using your smartphone or tablet advice, also shown below.

COMPUTER BROWSER SMARTPHONE TABLET

When you log into online banking for the first time, your Log-in ID will be your nine-digit account number with a Password of our choosing as long as it meets the requirements below.

Password must be at least five (5) characters long. Password can be no more than 25 characters long. Password must contain a minimum of one (1) number. Password must contain a minimum of one (1) uppercase character.

Step Two You will then be asked to select a target to receive a Secure Access Code (SAC) to access the system for the first time. You can receive the code by email, text or phone call. If you do not see your preferred option for receiving a Secure Access Code, you can add additional options after logging in. See “Adding Additional Secure Access Code Options” below for more information.

If you have problems receiving your Secure Access Code via email, you might check your spam folder and ensure you can receive emails from [email protected]. Once you receive your access code, enter it in the Secure Access Code window.

Step Three Once your Secure Access Code is accepted, the Device Registration page will ask if you’d like to register your device or not. If you are using your personal


computer to access online banking, you can register it to avoid having to receive an Access Code on future logins. If you are on a public computer, you should click “Do Not Register Device.” You will then be required to receive a new Access Code on all subsequent logins on this non-registered device.

Please note, you will be prompted to receive a new Secure Access Code each time you log in from a different device or log in using a different internet browser. Be advised, if you regularly clear the cache on your home computer or laptop, it will delete the online banking cookie, therefore prompting you to receive a new Secure Access Code on your next login.

Step Four A page displaying your profile information should come up next. Review the information and make sure all the required fields are complete. Then click “Submit Profile” to go to the next step. Please note: Once you’ve logged in, you can update any information that may be inaccurate by clicking “Settings” in the left-hand menu and selecting “My Profile.”

Step Five You will then proceed on to two comprehensive disclosures. These are required because of the additional products in the new online banking experience. Scroll down through both and click “Accept” at the bottom of each.

Step Six You will then be taken to our new Online Banking homepage.

Adding Additional Secure Access Code Options

To add additional options to receive a Secure Access Code, whether by email, phone call or text, click on “Settings” in the left-hand menu on the home page. Select “My Profile” from the online banking homepage and click on “Other Information.”


The Homepage

Now that you’ve arrived at the homepage, take a moment to acquaint yourself with the environment. Our 360-Degree Account View allows you to see all of your primary accounts as well as all of your joint accounts. This feature will allow you to manage all of your finances with one convenient login.

If you’re unsure which accounts are which, you can click on any of them to find out the primary owner. You also have the option of nicknaming and reordering your accounts as well. Simply click on “Settings” in the left-hand menu, select “Nicknames & Displays” and follow the instructions to personalize your homepage.


You can also click on the “Manage Users” feature under the “Settings” menu, which will allow you to hide accounts you do not want to see when you log in. Once you select “Manage Users,” you should see a box with your name in it (see right). Click on the pencil in the bottom right corner of the box.

This will bring up the “View User” page. Click on the “Assign Rights” box on the bottom right-hand side of the page.

Now you are on the “User Policy” page for your account (see below). Click on the “Accounts” tab at the top of the chart and in the “View” column, click on the check mark next to any account you do not wish to see. Once you’re done, click the “Save” button on the top right of the page and return to the home menu. Once you’ve refreshed your home page, the account(s) should be hidden. You can use the same process to unhide accounts as well.


The Main Menu

In order to maintain a unified experience across all of your devices, we’ve moved the menu to the left side of your homepage. It contains most of features you’re likely to use in a typical online banking session. Read below for a basic overview of what is contained and we’ll go into detail a little later on some of the features you’ll find here.

Payment Options

In addition to the many payment options available in our previous online banking platform, we’ve added some exciting new options for which members have been asking. You will find all of these options under “Payments & Transfers” in the left-hand menu on the online banking home page. Those options, in the order they appear in the menu include:

Transfer Funds: This allows you to easily transfer money between any of your existing Credit Union checking or savings accounts, as well as any external accounts of other financial institutions that you choose to add.

Transfer to a Member: This new feature allows you to transfer money to other Credit Union member-owners.

Pay Cards & Loans: Make payments to any of your Credit Union loans, including credit cards, auto or mortgages, but now those payments will occur in real time with no delay.


Pay Bills: Pay your electric, water, cable or any other bills you receive regularly. You can also add new payees at any time.

Pay Bills Quick Pay: This new feature allows you to make immediate payments to bill payees. See our Fee Schedule for applicable fees.

Pay Other People: This new person-to-person payment service, powered by Popmoney®, allows you to make direct payments to people outside the Credit Union, for example a babysitter, lawn service or a friend with whom you’re splitting a lunch tab. The only information needed is their email address.

External Accounts: Add accounts you own at other financial institutions to your financial profile to make them available for use in our Transfer Funds feature.

Domestic Wires: Set up electronic funds transfers to anyone in the United States. See our Fee Schedule for applicable fees.


Budget and Finances Feature

Our budget and finances feature allows our member-owners to track their spending with a fully interactive, real-time updating dashboard that will load all of your existing Credit Union accounts while also allowing you to add accounts from other financial institutions.

To get started, click on “Manage My Finances” in the left-hand menu on the online banking homepage and select “Budget and Finances.” A window will open internally asking you to allow the program to update your Credit Union account information. Once you’ve loaded all of your additional account data, this helpful new tool offers a number of useful capabilities.

Set spending targets so you can track variable expenses, track your monthly cashflow, establish savings goals, determine your net worth, arrange alerts when financial criteria are met and much more.


Additional Features

We’re expecting some new features to come online in the coming months, until then, here’s some we’d like you to know a little more about.

Activity Center

Located in the upper right menu of the online banking homepage is our new Activity Center feature. This useful tool allows you to quickly access the history of single transactions, recurring transactions or checks deposited online by searching your entire online banking profile.

For additional security, you can also use this feature to approve pending transactions. For example, if you’re making a large transfer that may exceed normal Credit Union limitations, you’ll receive a message to approve the draft in the Activity Center. Then we can confirm the legitimacy of the transaction in the Activity Center by sending you a new Secure Access Code via phone or text to finalize the transfer.


Touch Authentication Security Login

For iPhone 6 users who currently enjoy the Touch Authentication log-in technology on their smartphones, you can also use it to access your account via our newly updated American Airlines Credit Union app. If you already have our current app, you’ll be prompted to go to Apple’s App Store and download the new version. (Don’t forget to delete the older version afterward.) Once you’ve logged in, click on “Menu” on the upper left corner and select “Settings.” Click on “Security Preferences” and then turn the button next to “Touch ID” to “On.” (See below.) You will then be required to re-enter your User Name and Password and press your finger to the home button to take advantage of this one-touch login to access our unified new mobile banking experience.


Frequently Asked Questions

Why did American Airlines Federal Credit Union change online banking?

We are upgrading our online banking system as part of our ongoing effort to provide account holders with state-of-the art banking functionality, convenience and security. Our new online banking system offers robust online banking functionality on all of your devices, and will enable you to bank anytime, anywhere like never before.

Will I have access to my eStatement history?

Yes, you will also have access to up to 24 months of eStatements, if you are an eStatement subscriber.

Is there an online resource for help?

Yes, there is a “help” button available in the menu, you can send and receive messages in our new Messages feature within online banking and we also have a Live Chat feature.

Are there minimum browser requirements for this new system?

We recommend updating your browser to the latest version available — not just to ensure compatibility with the new online banking experience, but also to ensure that your online banking is as secure as possible. Find out which browsers are compatible in the helpful chart below.

Browser Minimum Browser Required Preferred Browser Internet Explorer Version 9 and above Version 10 and above Firefox Version 21 and above Version 24 and above Chrome Version 27 and above Version 30 and above Safari Version 5 and above Version 6-7 and above

I can’t access your site in my Internet Explorer browser, even though the version is supposed to be compatible. Why isn’t it working?

You may have your “Compatibility View” turned on. In the pull-down menu under “Tools,” select “Compatibility View Settings.” Make sure the box next to “Display all websites in Compatibility View” is unchecked. Refresh your browser and try to access the site again. If you’re still having issues, call us at (800) 533-0035.


While logging in, why did I receive an “UnconfiguredError” message?

This error (shown below) means that either your log-in ID or password was entered incorrectly. Take a minute to make certain your log-in ID has no errors, doublecheck your password and carefully input it again.

If you then receive the following message — “The log-in information does not match our records. Please try again.” (shown on the following page) — then you are inadvertently inputting an inaccurate log-in ID or password. Your safest bet is to click on the “Forgot your password?” link, select a password that matches the criteria listed and follow that process.

The password criteria is as follows:

Password must be at least five (5) characters long. Password can be no more than 25 characters long. Password must contain a minimum of one (1) number. Password must contain a minimum of one (1) uppercase character.

If you’re certain your log-in ID and password are correct, or that you mistakenly input an error on one of your earlier attempts, you can try again, however, if it is inaccurate, you may lock yourself out.

It says I’m locked out, what do I do now?

For security purposes, if you input your information inaccurately three times in a row, you will receive an error message reading, “This Log-In ID is currently locked out. Please contact your financial institution to reset your password.” (See the following


page.) At this point, you will need to contact us at (800) 533-0035 and have someone unlock your account and reset your password. Our Member Advocacy Center’s hours are 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. CST weekdays, 7 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturdays, and we can unlock you during those hours.

Can I use this on my phone/tablet?

Absolutely! Our new online banking system will provide you the ability to bank anytime, anywhere, from any device — conveniently and securely. You can download the app on any Android™ or Apple® device, and it will provide a consistent experience with banking from your desktop. If you already have our current app, you will be prompted to download the new one. Once you’ve done so, don’t forget to delete the older version. If you’re on a platform that isn’t Android or Apple, you can always access online banking via your HTML5-compatible mobile browser.

Device Minimum OS Versions Recommended OS Versions Android 4.0.3 and above 4.4.4 and above Apple iOS 6.0 and above iOS 7.0 and above* * Only available on iPhone 4 and newer.

What is a unified experience?

A unified experience simply means that the look and feel of your online banking is consistent on all of your devices. It does not mean that the exact same features and functions are available on every device. It is intended to improve your experience by making navigation simple and familiar regardless of device.


How do I contact you if I have questions about the new online banking experience?

We have multiple ways you can contact us for help. You can call our Member Advocacy Center (MAC) at (800) 533-0035 and follow the prompts until you are asked if you have an Online Banking question. The MAC hours are 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. CST weekdays, 7 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturdays. If you are logged into online banking, you can send us secure messages through the “Messages” link in the left-hand menu or you can click on “Live Chat” in the right-hand menu. Hours for both are the same as the MAC, though both will be closed Sunday. You can also reach us on Facebook and Twitter.
