 Baytree Online Banking gives you access to any Baytree account in which you are a signer. Simple and easy to use – Online Banking allows you to do your banking 24 hours a day from wherever Internet service is provided. It is one way to make your life and banking more enjoyable: making the most out of technology giving you more time to fill your life with the things you want to be doing.
Below are just a few of the things you can do:
- View the listing of accounts at Baytree in which you are a signer
- Look up account balances and loan balances
- View the current interest rates your products are earning
- See the interest postings
- View the last month of transactions
- View your last statement
- See your last deposit
- Search for a transaction or check
- Make a one-time transfer
- Schedule a timed transfer
- Make a loan payment from a Baytree account to a Baytree loan
- Change your password
Please view our Online Banking Agreement for detailed information below.
To login and view your accounts you’ll need a login ID and a password. There are several options for getting a login ID and password.
- Stop by in person at the bank;
266 East Deerpath, Lake Forest or
30 East Scranton Lake Bluff
- Mail or fax a signed letter to us requesting that we send your ID and password to a specific fax number or email address
Lake Forest FAX: (847) 234-9995 attn: personal banking
Lake Bluff FAX: (847) 482-9110 attn: personal banking
- Give us a call at 847-234-8484, or send us an email (
) with your name and address (no need to include your account information in the email – we’ll make sure you have access to all accounts on which you’re a signer). When we receive your request, we’ll mail your ID and password to the address we have for you in our records.
Since privacy and security are two of our themes as Baytree we regret that we cannot give out passwords over the telephone, or as an email reply. While this would certainly be more convenient, it is impossible for us to confirm the identity of everyone who contacts us via phone or the internet.
Once you have your login ID and password you can then login to view your accounts right on our home page of this site. You will be prompted to change your password immediately to one of your choice. This way, not even a banker knows your password. In the case that you forget your new password, you will have to repeat the process with a banker for it to be reset.
There is no cost to you for online banking services. We are providing it for free to thank you for being a customer. You may incur charges not associated with Baytree from your Internet provider.
