NEW RVB .Bank Domain

Home NEW RVB .Bank Domain

Get Ready for Something New!

Beginning next week we’re making the switch from our www.RaccoonValleyBank.com domain to www.RVB.Bank to provide an even more secure banking experience for our customers. At that time, all visits to www.RaccoonValleyBank.com will redirect to www.RVB.Bank, and emails will forward from [email protected] to our new email addresses.

After the switch, website redirection and email forwarding will remain in place for the foreseeable future. Our new .Bank domain will help to prevent phishing attacks against our employees, customers, and vendors by providing a visual identification cue for our emails and website. Going forward, authenticate our email and website address by simply looking for the .Bank. If it’s not .Bank, it’s not us.

What is .Bank?

.Bank is a secure domain exclusively for verified banks, replacing historical domains. It ensures authentic communication via bank email addresses and website URLs, providing confidence, trust, and security.

Why is .Bank more secure?

.Bank verifies all banks and mandates and monitors for compliance with specific security requirements. The .Bank cue adds visual authentication, enhancing protection against the most common cyberattacks (e.g., phishing, domain spoofing) that can lead to identity theft, business email compromise, and fraud.

Do I need to do anything differently with .Bank?

Please update any bookmarks and email addresses in your records. Remember to always look for the .Bank in email addresses when receiving or sending emails and in our website addresses for authentication.

Why .Bank now?

In today's digital world, cyber and data security are critical for community banks. According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), consumers reported losing more than $12.5 billion to fraud in 2024, a 25% increase over the prior year. Raccoon Valley Bank, serves as the first line of monetary defense for our customers. .Bank requires compliance with a set of Security Requirements that are not mandated by the operators of other commercially available domains. Additionally, .Bank registrars must adhere to all applicable .Bank security requirements for creating and maintaining a trusted, verified, and more secure environment for our .Bank domain.

Why haven’t all banks switched to .Bank?

The switch to .Bank is a business decision each bank makes based on priorities and resources.

Are the any other changes to online banking, mobile banking, or the RVB website that I need to be aware of?

The only things changing are the actual RVB website URL and employee email addresses. Nothing else bank related is changing at this time.
