.BANK is like ‘.gov’ and ‘.edu’, but for the banking sector. By looking for .BANK at the end of email addresses and website URLs you can confirm the email or website is authentically from a bank; the name to the left of the ‘dot’ tells you which bank.
Making a habit of looking for the .BANK will help protect you from phishing and spoofing attacks that collect personal information or login credentials used for identity theft and financial fraud.
What is .BANK?
.BANK is a gated domain, like .gov or .edu, but for verified banks. Replacing .com, which can be purchased by anyone, .BANK quickly verifies that the website or email is authentically from our bank, so you can interact with confidence when you see the ‘.BANK’ at the end of an RG BANK email address and our website URL.
