Introducing Secura T(ag): Enhanced Security for Your Digital Wallet
At BankSocial, we believe in empowering users with tools that not only enhance security but also simplify the way you interact with your digital assets. That’s why we created Secura T(ag) — Secura T(ag) isn’t just another security feature — it’s a proximity-based hardware solution that protects a specific device and the wallet installed on it. When paired, it ensures that sensitive wallet actions — like sending funds — can only be performed when your tag is physically nearby.
This means:
- Only the device you paired with your tag is protected.
- Only the wallet installed on that device is affected.
- If someone else gains access to your phone or computer but doesn’t have your tag, they can’t move your funds.
Let’s break down what Secura T(ag) does, how it works, and what you still need to be mindful of to keep your wallet safe.
What is Secura T(ag)?
Secura T(ag) is a physical security key (a small hardware fob) that works by communicating with the device you install it on. When active, the tag gives you the ability to toggle additional security settings — like hiding your seed phrase, hiding asset balances, hiding transactions, and even blocking the ability to send assets from that device entirely unless the tag is nearby.
Put simply: if the tag isn’t with you, your device won’t be able to send funds. This creates a physical layer of protection against unauthorized access on that device.
How It Works
Secura T(ag) integrates seamlessly with the BankSocial app and pairs with the device you choose. From that point on:
- Proximity Detection: The app constantly looks for the tag’s signal.
- Transaction Blocking: If the tag isn’t nearby, send functionality is blocked.
- Privacy Toggles: You can enable or disable features like hiding balances or transactions, giving you extra privacy and control in public or shared spaces.
- One-Time Setup: Once installed, the tag works in the background — no need for manual transaction approvals.
Note: The tag only protects the device you install it on. If your wallet is also installed on other devices, they will not be secured unless the tag is set up on them individually.
Added Security — Without the Extra Work
The power of Secura T(ag) lies in automation without compromise. Once it’s in place:
✅ No monthly fees
✅ No extra apps
✅ No extra friction
Your tag does all the work in the background, ensuring only you can access critical wallet features on the installed device.
You’re Still the First Line of Defense
While Secura T(ag) increases protection, it’s only part of the picture. You must still follow smart wallet safety practices:
- Securely store your seed phrase offline — never on your device.
- Don’t interact with unknown or suspicious protocols or websites.
- Avoid clicking random links or connecting your wallet without verifying the source.
🔐 Important Security Reminder:
No BankSocial staff member or any credible source will ever:
- Ask you to act under urgency or panic
- Tell you to move your funds to a wallet you don’t own
- Request you to connect your wallet through a link
- Ask for your seed phrase, ever
If you’re ever unsure, contact support directly through the official live chat inside the BankSocial App — nowhere else. We will never reach out to you via direct message, text, or email requesting sensitive actions. If something feels off, it probably is. Trust your instincts and verify only through the app.
There is no single solution that eliminates every threat. Secura T(ag) is an added layer of protection, not a guarantee. We’re being transparent because we value your trust — and your safety.
