Troubleshooting

Check if your mobile device is set to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). If it is, the eToken password won’t work. 

  1. Go to Settings, then Date and time 
  2. Set the toggle to Automatic
  3. Call 13 2339 to unlink the app from your user profile

Once this is done, you'll be able to reinstall the app and activate eToken.

Call the CommBiz helpdesk on 13 2339 to unlink the CommBiz app from your user profile. Then you'll be able to install the CommBiz app and activate eToken on your new device.

  1. Log on to the CommBiz app
  2. Select Activate eToken from the menu
  3. Select Activate CommBiz eToken
  4. Set a four-digit PIN

Log on to CommBiz. On the homepage, beside your CommBiz service name and user ID, you'll see either:

  • eToken: Set up
  • eToken: Not set up

You can only have an eToken and physical token at the same time if they're for different CommBiz services. You can't have both for the same service.

If you’re switching to eToken, activating it on the CommBiz app will deactivate your physical token.

Yes, once the service has been enabled for eToken, each user can choose an eToken or physical token.

Yes, you can have eToken registered to one mobile device per CommBiz service.

No. While you can have up to four devices linked to one user profile, only one of those devices can be activated for eToken.

To deactivate eToken, simply uninstall the CommBiz app from your device. 

If you still want to use the CommBiz app without eToken:

  1. Uninstall the CommBiz app from your device
  2. Call 13 2339 to unlink your device from your user profile
  3. Reinstall the app and follow the prompts to register it. Ignore Step 4, asking you to activate eToken

If you'd like to deactivate eToken for all users on your service, ask your Administrator to call 13 2339.
