What is a Transaction Authorisation Code (TAC)?

A Transaction Authorisation Code (TAC) is a unique, 6-digit computer-generated code that provides a second layer of identity authentication before you are allowed to perform specific transactions online.

Features

  • TAC can only be used with your own Maybank2u.com login username and password
  • It is only valid for the duration of each logon to Maybank2u.com and will expire immediately each time you logout
  • You must request for a TAC before you can carry out any transaction which requires TAC
  • You may perform several transactions with the same TAC
  • If your TAC expires or you forget the 6-digit code, you must apply for a new one
