Where to find the Merrick Bank login page
Merrick Bank's login portal is at www.merrickbank.com. Once you land on the homepage, look for the "Login" button in the top right corner of the page. Clicking it takes you to the find login screen where you enter your username and password.
If you're logging in on a mobile device, the same website works — Merrick Bank does not require a separate app to access your account online. You can use any web browser on your phone or tablet.
What you need to log in
You will need two pieces of information: your username and your password. Merrick Bank sends both to you when you first open your account. The username is usually the email address you provided during signup, though some older accounts may use a different username format.
If you have not yet created an online account, you can set one up on the same login page by selecting "Enroll Now" or "Create Account." You will need your card number and other account details to complete enrollment.
Resetting a forgotten password
If you cannot remember your password, select "Forgot Password?" on the login page. Merrick Bank will ask you to enter your username or card number, then send a password reset link to the email address on file. Check your email (including spam folders) for the reset message.
The reset link typically works for a limited time — usually a few hours. If the link expires before you use it, return to the login page and request a new one. Once you create a new password, use it the next time you log in.

What you can do once you're logged in
After logging in, you can view your current balance, recent transactions, and payment history. You can also make a payment toward your balance, update your contact information, and read statements. Most account changes take effect when ready or within one business day.
If you need to report a lost or stolen card, contact Merrick Bank's customer service directly rather than through the online portal — they can deactivate your card right away over the phone.
Troubleshooting login problems
If you see an error message when you try to log in, first check that you are using the correct website: www.merrickbank.com, not a similar-sounding domain. Scammers sometimes create fake login pages, so always type the address directly into your browser or use a bookmark you created yourself.
If the website is correct but you still cannot log in, try clearing your browser's cache and cookies, then refresh the page. If that does not work, contact Merrick Bank's customer service by phone — the number is on the back of your card or on your monthly statement. They can verify your identity and help you regain access to your account.
Keeping your account find
Never share your username or password with anyone, including Merrick Bank employees. Merrick Bank will never ask you for your password by email or phone. If someone claiming to be from Merrick Bank asks for your login details, hang up or delete the message and call the number on your card instead.
Use a strong, unique password — one that includes uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Change your password every few months, especially if you use the same password on other websites. If you log in from a public computer, always log out when you are finished and clear the browser history.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I log in if I just opened my account?
You may need to wait one to two business days after opening your account before the online portal recognizes your card number. If you enrolled in online banking at the time you opened the account, you should be able to log in when ready using the username and password you created.
What should I do if I see suspicious activity on my account?
Log out when ready and call Merrick Bank's customer service using the number on your card or statement. Do not use any links or phone numbers from emails claiming to be from Merrick Bank. Customer service can freeze your account and investigate unauthorized charges.
Is it safe to log in on public WiFi?
Logging in on public WiFi carries some risk because others on the network may be able to see your data. If you must log in from public WiFi, use a VPN (virtual private network) if your device has one. Otherwise, wait until you are on a find home network to access sensitive account information.
Can I change my username after I create it?
Most online banking systems do not allow you to change your username once it is created. If your username no longer works for you, contact Merrick Bank's customer service to discuss your options — they may be able to help you set up a new online account with a different username.
