Five Star offers a robust mobile banking experience. By downloading the Five Star mobile app to your phone or tablet, you are bringing all of your Five Star accounts to your fingertips. On the mobile app, you can check balances, transfer money, transfer money to another Five Star member, and pay bills. As an added security feature, you can turn your Five Star cards off and on through the card controls on the app. This will ensure that your Five Star cards are safe after each use.
Go to your mobile device’s app store and search “Five Star” to get started or click your app store below. Your online banking username and password will get you into the mobile app. Stop in at your local branch or call the Five Star Member Care Center to get set up.

Five Star Advice: Keep your app updated through your device's app store. If you don't update your app, it may not perform at the highest level. If you have trouble with your app, check for an update first. Generally that is the problem.
If you forget your password, watch the video above, How to Reset Your Password, the process is easy and should take less than five minutes. It's important to keep your cellphone number on file with Five Star so the reset code is sent to your correct phone.
