LuxTrust connection products are security systems that generate a number sequence for one-time use (OTP) every 30 seconds. This OTP must be entered together with your user ID and personal password in order to access applications that use a LuxTrust connection product. If all three of these are correct, LuxTrust will authorise the user’s connection to the application.

LuxTrust secret image

Each time you need to use your LuxTrust chip-based product for online banking or e-government application, you will see your secret image at the moment you enter your OTP or PIN code (for instance to authenticate yourself, add beneficiaries, validate a transaction above a certain amount).Other partners might integrate this function in future releases.

LuxTrust has introduced this new step to conform with the European “Payment Services Directive 2”, otherwise known as “PSD2”. To better protect consumers who make payments online, this requires inter alia the implementation of strong authentication and what is known as “transaction contextualisation”. This means that the consumer must be able to make payments securely and must also be able to validate every transaction by having all information at his/her disposal (such as the IBAN, the amount and the payment’s recipient). The good news is that, with this new step, all LuxTrust devices meet these requirements.

The first time you authenticate yourself with your LuxTrust device (online banking, LuxTrust, Guichet.lu, MultiLine, …) we will ask you to choose one of nine images picked up randomly.

By including an image chosen by you and which only you can know, we are adding another layer of security. As such, if the image you see is not the one you have chosen, please cancel the operation and contact us.

That’s easy! Just go to your myluxtrust space on our site and follow the steps under “change my secret image”.

Your image, like your UserID and Password are personal credentials. The same way you don’t share your credit card number, you shouldn’t share the elements of security of your LuxTrust identity! Protecting your identity matters!

No, it will always be the same image you chose the first time you connected and will remain no matter the online application you are using for your future transactions. If you don’t like it anymore, you can simply change it on your myluxtrust space at www.luxtrust.lu.

If the image you see is not the image you chose, you are probably facing a phishing attempt. Cancel the operation and contact us by phone at +(352) 44 99 1 or by email via phishing@ing.lu.

No, the secret image is a new step for consumers using their SmartCard, Signing Stick or Luxembourg eID. If you use LuxTrust Mobile or LuxTrust Scan, you won’t see the image when entering your OTP or PIN code. 

This is simple. If you are not sure about the secret image you chose, visit LuxTrust official website in MyLuxTrust section and “change my secret image”. It will enable you to pick a new one that you need to remember for your future operations.

In case of doubt, don't communicate your LuxTrust IDs and contact us.

Protection against errors 

  1. Each time you make a transaction, you must go through various steps that serve as checks: 
  2. First of all, you must fill in the first screen which is an input screen. Once you have done this, you have a choice: either cancel the transaction, or send your data; 
  3. You will now see a confirmation screen that offers you a choice between three options: cancel, change or confirm. 
  4. If you confirm, the system may sometimes ask you to reconfirm your transaction by encoding the Token (if the recipient is already registered you do not need to confirm again with the Token). At this stage, you can still choose either to cancel the transaction, or to send it to have it carried out. 
  5. If you send it, you will receive a notification screen with reference number under which the transaction has been registered at the Bank. If the connection is interrupted before the last screen appears, your transaction may not have been registered. To find out if your transaction has been recorded, check your Order Book (current) to see whether or not your transfer has been recorded.
