Q: What is a Security Code?

A: The Security Code is a special, one-time password used to access full range of Internet Banking service. The 6-digit password appears on the LCD screen of the Security Device for your input into the screen of HSBC Internet Banking.

Q: What is a Serial Number?

A: Serial Number is a unique number on the back of the Security Device that is linked to your HSBC Personal Internal Banking profile personally. The number is a 10-digit serial number, identifying your individual Security Device.
