Enhanced Security, Increased Flexibility

As technology is constantly evolving, it poses both challenges and opportunities. Citi is committed to helping keep you ahead of the curve, so you can focus on your business. Developed in the Citi tradition of customer-centered design innovation, the payments capabilities through CitiDirect increase your flexibility and give you a whole new way to bank reliably, with Citi security features.

This minimizes processing errors by providing data upfront and allowing ample space for attaching commentary, before transactions are released to the bank.
