Where to log in to your Bank of America Alaska Airlines card
Log in through Bank of America's main website at bankofamerica.com, not through a separate Alaska Airlines portal. Once you reach the Bank of America homepage, select "Sign In" in the top right corner, then enter your username and password. Your Bank of America login works for all cards you hold with them, including the Alaska Airlines card — there is no separate login for this specific card.
If you do not yet have a Bank of America online account, you will need to create one before you can view your Alaska Airlines card details. This requires your Social Security number, a Bank of America card or account number, and a valid email address. The setup takes about 10 minutes and happens on the same bankofamerica.com site.
You can also log in through the Bank of America mobile app, available on iOS and Android. The app uses the same username and password as the website. Many cardholders find the app faster for checking balances and recent transactions while away from a computer.
Key Takeaways
- Bank of America Alaska Airlines cardholders log in at bankofamerica.com using a single username and password that covers all their Bank of America accounts and cards.
- If you do not have an online account yet, you can create one on the same website using your Social Security number and a Bank of America card number.
- The Bank of America mobile app offers the same login and account access as the website.
- Once logged in, you can view your card balance, recent charges, rewards points, and payment options all in one place.
What you can do once you are logged in
After logging in, your Alaska Airlines card details appear under "Accounts" or "Cards" depending on whether you also hold a Bank of America checking or savings account. You will see your current balance, available credit, recent transactions, and the date your statement closes each month.
From your account dashboard, you can make a payment toward your balance, set up automatic monthly payments, read statements as PDFs, and view your rewards balance. The rewards section shows your current Alaska Airlines miles, any promotional miles you earned, and miles that are set to expire (though Bank of America Alaska Airlines miles do not expire as long as your account remains open and active).
You can also update your contact information, change your password, set up account alerts (such as notifications when your balance reaches a certain amount), and manage your card settings like fraud protection and spending limits.
Resetting your password if you forget it
On the Bank of America sign-in page, select "Forgot username or password?" below the login fields. You will be asked to enter the email address or phone number associated with your account. Bank of America will send you a link to reset your password via email or text message, depending on which option you choose.
The reset link is active for a limited time — usually a few hours. Click the link, create a new password (which must be at least 8 characters and include uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and numbers), and confirm it. You can then log in with your new password when ready.
If you do not receive the reset email or text, check your spam folder or wait a few minutes and request a new link. If you still cannot reset your password, Bank of America customer service can help you regain access by verifying your identity over the phone.
Two-factor authentication and security
Bank of America uses two-factor authentication to protect your account. After you enter your username and password, the system asks you to verify your identity using a second method — usually a code sent to your phone via text message or generated by the Bank of America mobile app.
You can choose to trust your device for future logins, which means you will not need to enter a verification code every single time you log in from that same computer or phone. However, if you log in from a new device or browser, you will need to verify again. This balance between convenience and security is set by Bank of America and cannot be changed.
Never share your username, password, or verification codes with anyone, including Bank of America employees. The bank will never ask you for this information via email or phone.
Common login problems and how to fix them
If you see an error message saying your username or password is incorrect, make sure Caps Lock is off and that you are typing your credentials exactly as you set them up. Passwords are case-sensitive. If you have tried multiple times and still cannot log in, use the "Forgot username or password?" option to reset rather than continuing to guess.
If your account is locked after several failed login attempts, wait 24 hours before trying again. Bank of America locks accounts temporarily to prevent unauthorized access. You can also call Bank of America customer service to unlock your account sooner if you verify your identity.
If you see a message that your account is not yet set up for online access, it means you have not completed the initial registration. Go back to bankofamerica.com and select "Enroll Now" to create your online account. You will need your card number, Social Security number, and a valid email address.
Accessing your account on a public or shared computer
Logging in from a public computer — such as one at a library or internet café — carries extra risk. If you must use a public computer, log out completely when you are finished, not just by closing the browser window. Select "Sign Out" or "Log Out" from your account menu to end your session properly.
Do not check the "Remember me" or "Trust this device" option on a public computer. Do not save your password in the browser. After you log out, clear your browser's cache and cookies if the computer allows it.
Whenever possible, log in only from your own computer, phone, or tablet. Bank of America will alert you if your account is accessed from an unusual location, which gives you a chance to change your password if something looks wrong.
Linking your Alaska Airlines account to your Bank of America card
Your Alaska Airlines miles are tied to your Bank of America card automatically — you do not need to link anything separately. However, you can link your Bank of America Alaska Airlines card to your Alaska Airlines frequent flyer account on the Alaska Airlines website to see your miles balance in one place and manage your rewards redemptions.
To do this, log into your Alaska Airlines account at alaskaair.com, go to your profile settings, and add your Bank of America card number. Alaska Airlines will confirm the card matches your account. After that, you can see your miles from both your card and your flights in the same Alaska Airlines dashboard.
Linking the accounts does not change how you earn or redeem miles — it just gives you a second place to view your balance. Your primary source of truth for your card rewards remains your Bank of America account.

What should I do if I think someone else has accessed my account?
Log in when ready and change your password. Then call Bank of America customer service at the number on the back of your card to report the suspected unauthorized access. The bank can review your recent transactions, freeze your card if needed, and help you dispute any charges you did not make.
