Preparing for Your PTSB Online Banking Experience
- An Active PTSB Account: You must be a Permanent TSB customer.
- Open24 Number: This unique identifier is printed on the back of your Visa Debit Card.
- Temporary Password (for first-time users): You receive this when you first register for the service, typically over the phone with a banking agent. You will change this upon your initial login.
- Personal Access Number (PAN): A secure 6-digit number you create during the registration process. You'll need to key in certain digits of this during login.
- Access Device: For first-time registration and login, a PC or laptop is required, as this cannot be done on a mobile device. After initial setup, you can use the PTSB App on a compatible smartphone or tablet.
- Registered Mobile Number: Essential for receiving one-time passcodes and push notifications for Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) and password resets.
Accessing Your Open24 Financial Dashboard
- For First-Time Login (Desktop/Laptop Only): Visit Open24.ie. Enter your Open24 number (found on your Visa Debit Card). Input the temporary password provided by the agent. Then, enter 3 digits from your 6-digit Personal Access Number (PAN). You will then be prompted to create your permanent password.
- For Regular Online Banking (Desktop/Laptop): Navigate to Open24.ie. Enter your Open24 number and your full internet password. The system will then ask you for three specific digits from your 6-digit Personal Access Number (PAN).
- For Mobile Banking (PTSB App): Open the PTSB App on your device. You'll need your Open24 number, your internet password, and 3 digits from your Personal Access Number (PAN). Biometric login (face or fingerprint) may also be available after initial setup.
- Device Registration for App: The first device you use to log in to the PTSB App becomes your registered device, enhancing security.

Regaining Access to Your PTSB Online Account
⚠️ Forgot Your Password
Cause: You cannot recall your internet password for Open24.
Solution: We know being locked out is stressful. The fastest way to reset your password is via the automated phone service. Call 0818 50 24 24 and enter your Open24 number and three digits from your PAN. Select the option to reset your internet password. You'll receive a temporary password. Remember to change it on Open24.ie (desktop) before using the app.
⚠️ Account Locked
Cause: Incorrect login details (Open24 number, password, or PAN digits) were entered three consecutive times, or security flags were triggered.
Solution: If your account becomes locked, please contact the dedicated support team immediately. Call 0818 50 24 24 or +353 1 212 4101 (from abroad) during business hours (Monday to Friday, 9 am to 5 pm) for assistance. They can help unlock your access.
⚠️ Unable to Log in to the App with a Temporary Password
Cause: Temporary passwords issued after registration or reset must first be changed on the desktop Open24 website.
Solution: If you have a temporary password, you must first log in to Open24.ie on a desktop or laptop to set a new, permanent password of your choice. Once this is done, you can then successfully log in to the PTSB App.
⚠️ Changing Mobile Number or International Address
Cause: These specific personal details cannot be updated directly through the online portal for security reasons.
Solution: For changes to your registered mobile phone number or an international address, you must call 0818 50 24 24 or +353 1 212 4101 (from abroad) to speak with a dedicated agent. They will assist you with the update after verifying your identity.
Ensuring the Safety of Your Open24 Digital Banking
- 🔒 Strong Customer Authentication (SCA): Be aware that for online purchases and certain banking transactions, you'll undergo an additional security step. This involves either push notifications to your registered PTSB App device or a one-time passcode (OTP) sent to your registered mobile number, combined with entering 3 digits from your PAN.
- 🔒 Be Vigilant Against Scams: PTSB will never ask you for all 6 digits of your Personal Access Number (PAN). Be cautious of unsolicited SMS messages containing links; PTSB will typically hyperlink text and uses the .ie domain for official websites. Never click on suspicious links or provide full login details.
- 🔒 Secure Your Credentials: Keep your Open24 number, password, and Personal Access Number (PAN) secure and confidential. Avoid writing them down where they could be easily accessed.
- 🔒 Monitor Your Accounts: Regularly review your account activity for any unfamiliar transactions. Report any suspicious activity to PTSB immediately.
- 🔒 Device Security: Ensure your devices (computer, smartphone, tablet) are protected with up-to-date antivirus software and strong passwords/biometrics. Registering your primary device for the PTSB App enhances security by restricting app access to that specific device.
