Frequently Asked Questions
When is Business+ going live?
Business+ will be going live to all users on April 7th at 8:00 AM. A two-week preview period will be offered from March 24th – April 3rd to preview the new platform. Users will need to transact in the old Online Banking platform until it goes offline on April 3rd at 6:00 PM.
How do I log in to Business+?
To log in, users should visit the pioneerny.com homepage, and select “Login” from the top navigation. In the sidebar, you can then select “Login to Business+”. Please keep in mind if you have bookmarked or saved a shortcut to the old Business Banking platform, you will need to set up a new link as it has changed.
Will my username change?
Yes, a representative from Pioneer will reach out with your new login URL for Business+, as well as your new Company ID, User ID, and temporary password.
Will current ACH templates and recurring transactions be converted to Business+?
Yes, your existing templates will be transferred into the new Business+ environment. However, recurring, scheduled transactions will not transfer over to the new platform. To avoid any disruptions with scheduled transactions, we recommend printing all scheduled transfer details from the current system prior to when the platform goes offline on April 3rd at 6:00 PM, so they can be re-established in Business+ on or after April 7th.
Will alerts be converted to Business+?
Yes, basic administrator alerts will transfer over to Business+. However, custom alerts will need to be re-established in Business+, which we recommend doing during the preview period.
Can you complete transactions in Business+ during the preview period?
No, you will need to continue to transact in the current Online Banking platform until it goes offline on April 3rd at 6:00 PM. Beginning April 7th at 8:00 AM you will be able to transact within the new Business+ platform.
Will I be able to search my transaction history in Business+?
The new environment will have the last 90 days and begin building history when you start using it on April 7th. If you require old statements, please feel free to reach out to the Cash Management Department at any time for assistance by calling 518-730-3250 or emailing cashmanagement@pioneerny.com.
Will I have access to the old Online Banking platform?
Administrators will need to continue transacting in the old Online Banking platform until it goes offline on Friday, April 4th at 6:00 PM. After that time, transactions will need to be completed when Business+ goes live on April 7th at 8:00 AM.
Who should I contact with additional questions?
For questions regarding the Business+ platform we encourage you to reach out to our Cash Management Department at any time for assistance by calling 518-730-3250 or emailing cashmanagement@pioneerny.com. For general questions, we encourage you to reach out to your Relationship Manager.
