Citibank's Security Pop-Up

By Jim Bruene on August 23, 2005 3:54 PM

Citi_popupUnder the "every little bit helps" theory, Citibank's popup window when registering for online credit card access is a nice touch.

The popup (click on inset for closer view) reassures users that they are entering information into a secure site. The well-crafted verse goes like this:

Secure.
A little word that that means a lot--especially online.
Rest assured, this registration process is just that.

The window closes itself in about 10 seconds, if the user hasn't done so already.
