Modify the names of accounts, cards and portfolios
So-called aliases are used in UBS Digital Banking. These are short tags for accounts, cards and portfolios. You can set (and change) these aliases yourself.
Tip: Aliases are particularly useful if, for instance, you have several private accounts and would like to tell them apart at a glance when looking at your home screen or when making a payment.
