The law requires that banks like UNO conduct due diligence prior to starting a relationship with a new customer. This is to ensure that banks are not used as instruments for money laundering activities. Your face is key to validating your identity and account ownership through the Selfie Check (facial recognition security feature that also confirms liveness). As such, please ensure the following:
– Before taking a selfie, remove your glasses and / or hat and avoid excessive backlighting.
– To capture your selfie automatically, frame your face inside the oval and position your device at eye level while looking directly at the camera.
– Verify that your eyes are open.
– Confirm that you are satisfied with the capture. Otherwise, you may choose to retake.
It is because you have not granted permission for the UNO Mobile App to use your phone’s camera. You can go to your phone settings to grant camera permission to the UNO Mobile App.
For your own protection, UNO can invalidate your Password or lock your account or UNO Mobile App without prior notice:
– if your Password does not comply with the security requirements of UNO
– if the wrong Password is entered for 3 times
– if you report that you suspect any unauthorized use of your account or the UNO Mobile App; or
– if you do not comply with the due diligence requirements, or pass screening requirements of UNO.
You may reset your password and passcode. However, you will be required to set up a new password and perform a Selfie Check.
You may upload a photo in the User Profile portion of the UNO Mobile App. Remember that the photo you upload will be visible to other UNO Mobile App users and customers, especially when you perform transactions that involve them such as Send Money.

The UNO Debit Mastercard is the first Numberless debit card in the Philippines.
It is your worldwide access to your #UNOready savings account. You can use your card to pay for retail purchases in stores or online worldwide wherever Mastercard is accepted and to withdraw cash from any Mastercard ATM in the Philippines and from ove million Mastercard ATMs worldwide.
The card is also made using 85.5% recycled plastic making it the more sustainable card material choice. They help reduce waste, energy, and pollution, which makes them great for the environment!
Through the world’s fastest and most reliable global payments network, the Mastercard numberless physical card cardholders enjoy the same robust and multi-layered security protections that come with paying via the existing Mastercard payment solution. The card only shows the cardholder’s name while information such as the card number and its expiry date, which are usually printed on traditional cards, would instead be saved in the card’s chip. These pieces of information, as well as the card verification code (CVC) normally printed at the back of traditional cards, would be shown on the digital card via the UNO Digital Bank app – further enhancing privacy and security levels. You can simply login to the app and verify your identity to obtain the required information for online shopping.
