There’s so much you can do with a token device acquired from GTBank. But the biggest perk, I must confess, that comes with owning a token is the increased security it gives to your account.
If you use a strong password for your internet banking account, then it is highly difficult for a hacker to gain access to it.
However, if any hacker by chance gains access to your account, he / she will not be able to complete transactions, in as much as they don’t have your token with them.
