At a glance

What is most useful to know first.

Public scope Accounts, payments, receivables, liquidity, trade, FX, and reporting

The public CitiDirect® pages position the platform as a broad transaction-banking workspace rather than a narrow login screen.

Scale signal 90+ markets, 194 foreign currencies, 90K+ organizations

These figures appear on the public CitiDirect® Online site and are useful orientation signals for global users.

New clients There are public onboarding and login resources

Citi publicly points to digital onboarding, mobile token login guides, and user materials, even if full setup still happens in onboarding.

Best use Use this page to orient, then validate entitlements and workflow setup

The public material is helpful for discovery, but admin models, country scope, and approvals still need client-specific confirmation.

Short links

The official links most worth surfacing together.

New-to-platform client resources

I did not find a public resource explicitly titled “CitiDirect® for new to platform client.” These are the closest official onboarding and login resources.

Closest public demo

Digital Onboarding

Citi’s implementations page says this shows how CitiDirect’s digital onboarding accelerates the account-opening process.

This is the closest official public “new-client” demo signal I found. It appears in Citi’s implementations section alongside onboarding, testing, and client-experience content.

Login tutorial

CitiDirect Mobile Token: Login

Official video showing how to log in on desktop and mobile using CitiDirect mobile token and biometrics.

This is the clearest public step-by-step login video for new users. Citi also hosts a matching “get started with Mobile Token” guide with desktop-login screenshots.

First-time setup

CitiDirect BE® User Guide PDF

The public PDF snippet explicitly notes that first-time users must complete registration on CitiDirect BE before using mobile with MFA.

This is useful when a client needs first-login and registration context, not just a promotional overview.

This is not a generic “new platform client” video, but it is a current official CitiDirect BE® video page and useful if trade workflows are in scope.

The Power of Data in Treasury

Citi’s treasury-data video is a useful short link when you want digital-treasury context rather than product onboarding alone.
