Every session is protected by AES-256 encryption and TLS 1.3. If you need to reset your password, enrol for the first time, or access banking from the mobile app, follow the step-by-step guides below.

Your CFFC online banking portal gives you 24/7 access to account balances, transfers, bill pay, mobile cheque deposit and loan management — all from one secure dashboard. C&F Bank never compromises on security: every login requires multi-factor authentication, and every session is encrypted end to end.

Step 1: Navigate to the Login Page

Open your preferred web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Edge) and navigate to cffc.co.com/login.html. Alternatively, open the C&F Bank mobile app on your iOS or Android device. Always verify the URL begins with https://cffc.co.com and displays the padlock icon in your browser's address bar — this confirms your connection is encrypted with TLS 1.3.

Bookmark the login page to avoid mistyped URLs or phishing sites. C&F Bank will never send you an email with a direct login link. If you receive one, it is fraudulent — forward it to info@cffc.co.com and call 804-843-2360.

Step 2: Enter Your Username and Password

Type the username you created during enrolment into the username field. Usernames are case-sensitive and typically 6-20 characters. Next, enter your password. C&F Bank requires passwords of at least 10 characters including at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, one number and one special character (such as !, @, #, $ or %).

Use a unique password that you do not reuse on any other website or service. A password manager is strongly recommended. If you suspect your password has been compromised, change it immediately through the account settings menu after login, or call 804-843-2360.

Step 3: Complete Multi-Factor Authentication

After submitting your username and password, C&F Bank will prompt you for a second verification factor. Choose from three options: an SMS one-time code sent to your registered mobile number, an email verification code sent to your registered email address, or a six-digit time-based code from your authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator or similar).

Enter the code within 60 seconds of generation. If the code expires, request a new one. Multi-factor authentication is required on every login — there is no option to skip or remember devices. This is by design: it ensures that even if your password is stolen, your account remains protected.

Step 4: Access Your CFFC Online Banking Dashboard

After successful authentication, you will land on your personalised dashboard. From here you can view real-time balances across all linked accounts (checking, savings, money market, CDs and loans), review recent transactions, initiate transfers between C&F Bank accounts, send Zelle payments, schedule bill payments, deposit cheques via the mobile app and manage account alerts.

Business customers with treasury management access will see additional modules for ACH origination, wire initiation, positive pay exception management and dual-authorisation queues. All actions within the session are logged and encrypted.

Step 5: Log Out When Finished

Always click the "Log Out" button when you have finished your banking session, especially on shared or public devices. C&F Bank sessions automatically time out after 10 minutes of inactivity as an additional safeguard. Never walk away from an unlocked session on a shared computer.

Forgot Your Password?

Click "Forgot Password" on the login page. Enter your registered email address. C&F Bank will send a one-time verification code — enter it on the next screen. Create a new password meeting the 10-character requirement (mixed case, number, special character). Your new password takes effect immediately.

If your account is locked after three failed attempts, call 804-843-2360 for manual identity verification and unlock. You will need your full name, date of birth and last four digits of your Social Security number.

First-Time Enrolment

Visit any of C&F Bank's 30 Virginia branches with a government-issued photo ID, or call 804-843-2360 to request enrolment by phone. A banker will verify your identity and link your accounts. Within 24 hours you will receive an activation email from C&F Bank. Click the secure link, create your username, set your password and configure your preferred MFA method. Total setup time: approximately 10 minutes.

Mobile App Login

Download the C&F Bank app from the Apple App Store or Google Play. Sign in with your existing CFFC online banking username and password, then complete MFA. After your first successful mobile login, you can enable biometric authentication (fingerprint or Face ID) for faster access on subsequent logins. The mobile app uses certificate pinning for additional security protection.

AES-256 Encryption

All data transmitted between your device and C&F Bank's servers is encrypted using AES-256, the strongest commercially available encryption standard. Combined with TLS 1.3 transport security, your credentials and account data cannot be intercepted or read by third parties — even on shared networks. Learn more on our Security page.

Adaptive Authentication

C&F Bank's authentication engine monitors login patterns including device type, geographic location, time of day and login frequency. If a login attempt deviates significantly from your normal behaviour — for example, a login from a new country or at 3am — the system escalates security requirements, potentially including a verification phone call from a C&F Bank representative.

Automatic Session Timeout

CFFC online banking sessions automatically end after 10 minutes of inactivity. This protects your account if you step away from your computer or lose your phone. You will be prompted to re-authenticate when you return. For business users, treasury sessions have configurable timeout settings managed by your company's admin.

FDIC Insurance

While not a login feature per se, your deposits are insured up to $250,000 per depositor, per ownership category, by the FDIC. C&F Bank is a member FDIC institution (NMLS #399805). This guarantee applies regardless of how you access your account — online, mobile or in-branch.
