The RSA SecurID device provides an extra layer of security for Wells Fargo customers using our advanced online payments services, including Direct Pay. The device, which can be carried on a keychain, generates a random 6-digit Personal Access Code that is used to sign on to these services. The Personal Access Code changes every 60 seconds.
-
The RSA SecurID device generates a random 6-digit numeric Personal Access Code every 60 seconds. Access to certain Wells Fargo services is synchronized between this Personal Access Code and our internal security system. Plus, your RSA SecurID device will work anywhere you have access to Wells Fargo Online® services.
-
Your transactions are more secure because the device adds an extra layer of password protection. The Personal Access Code is a random number that changes every 60 seconds and each code can only be used once — making it almost impossible for someone to know your Personal Access Code.
-
When you sign on to services that use the device for authentication, you’ll be prompted to enter your Personal Access Code.

No. There are no costs or fees associated with the replacement of a RSA SecurID device.
-
Unless someone also has your Wells Fargo Online® username and password, they will not be able to access services that are protected by the RSA SecurID device. However, you should report the lost or stolen device as soon as possible. Once you report a lost or stolen device, it is deactivated.
-
Once you complete the enrollment process for any service that uses the device for authentication, it will be delivered to your business address on file in 14-16 business days.
-
You do not need to return the device. We recommend keeping the device in a safe place in case you reactivate your service, or choose to take advantage of new services that use RSA SecurID technology in the future.
-
