Identify
This is used to identify you when you need to make changes to your account.

Respond
This is used to identify you when setting up a new Barclays service, for example registering for Barclays Mobile Banking.

Sign
If you've made a payment to someone new in online banking, you'll be asked to sign the payment. The process is similar to logging in – you'll get full instructions when you're making your payment.

Some things you'll need to know:

• Your card reader is battery powered and doesn't need to be plugged in. The batteries should last between five and seven years. Audio card reader batteries will last two to three years
• Your card reader will time out and turn off after 90 seconds of inactivity. To reactivate the card reader, remove and reinsert your bank card
• The card reader does not need to be connected to your computer at any time. It works completely independently, based on your card and the information you enter into it
• Never accept instructions to synchronise the PINsentry card reader – no synchronisation is necessary
• Never accept instructions from anyone asking you to enter an account number and amount into the PINsentry card reader unless you wish to make a payment to them.
