Step 1: Understanding iPortal and Barclays.Net roles and responsibilities
Administrators
Administrators appoint additional users, assigning their privileges and payment limits. They also set out payment authorisation requirements and are responsible for ensuring user
details are kept up to date.
Users
Users can create, modify and delete payments where they have been given these rights by administrators. Users can also view balances and payments on the accounts to which
they have been assigned.
Security contacts
The designated security contact will receive all user smartcards. These will be sent out once the users are registered on your iPortal/Bsrclays.Net.
Nominated security contacts will also be sent replacement and renewal smartcards for existing users.
An administrator, security contact and user can be the same person if required.
Please note: All users must read the Digital Channels Security User Guide before proceeding to Step 2.
Getting started
Step 2: Equipment checklist – Pin Pad
The PIN Pad smartcard reader currently used for your Wealth Online Banking Access can also be used for iPortal/Barclays.Net. Additional readers can be requested in iPortal/
Barclays.Net or by calling the Migration Team on 0330 094 7380.
In order to proceed with the set-up of iPortal/Barclays.Net you must be in possession of:
• A Security Device (PIN Pad smartcard reader). This must be connected to the computer you wish to access iPortal/Barclays.Net.

Barlcays.Net allows you to create Payments in one of three ways:
Option 1: New Payment Form
A New Payment Form allows the user to create a new ‘free format’ payment to new and existing beneficiaries. A payment made this way is saved to the template for future use.
Options 2: Template
Selecting an existing template allows the user to utilise some of the existing template details to create a new payment. Using a template saves you time by avoiding the need to
repeatedly input the details of payments made on a regular basis.
