To register for your Desjardins account online, you'll need your plan number and your member ID. The plan number is also called the group number or contract number. The member ID is also the certificate number.

You'll find both pieces of information on your benefits card.

From the Desjardins group benefits website, click on the Register Now button on the login page. Enter your group number, member ID, and personal information in the required fields.

The site will ask if you're already registered for Desjardins Insurance online services. If you've had a Desjardins account in the past, and you remember your user ID and password, click "yes." You can then log in with your user ID and password.

If you've never registered for a Desjardins online account before, click "no." You'll then create a user ID and password. You'll also set a password reminder and answer a security question.

After downloading the app, open it and tap "Group Insurance". Then tap "Register."

You'll need to enter your group number (plan number) and certificate number (member ID). You can then fill in your personal information.

The form will ask if you've registered for Desjardins online services before. If you have, and you remember your user ID and password, tap "yes." You can log in with your preexisting user ID and password.
