There are several reasons a transfer might fail.

If you find that these are not the reason, please call us at 1-800-244-8161.

Fingerprint sign in has the same high-level security as all authentication methods for online and mobile banking. Technical details: Both Google and Apple have a hardware backed chip on supported devices. When registering for Fingerprint authentication, we generate an RSA Public/ Private key that is stored and encrypted by that hardware chip. The only way it can be accessed is when the device Operating system authenticates the user through the fingerprint scanner. The private key never leaves the device’s trust zone which is not accessible by software. The server has the public key. When signing in, a signature is created by the trust zone using the private key. This signature is sent to the server where it verifies its authenticity by comparing to the public key. This allows the user to login. This is also why any changes to items within this process require the user to re-enroll in this service. This includes when the user adds a new fingerprint, the app is re-installed, or a change is made to the device OS that affects anything related to fingerprints on the device.
On the Bay State Savings Bank mobile app BSSB Mobile sign in screen, enter your password and then navigate to the Mobile Services menu > Fingerprint / Face ID > Enrollment > you will be prompted to give your device a name (should be unique) along with providing your username and password.
