Reading your credit card statement

We've updated our statements to help you quickly find the information you need

 

Key areas of your statement

Payment Summary

1. Due Date

This area highlights the Due Date, when your Minimum Monthly Payment should be received by ANZ. You might need to make the payment before this date to allow enough time for it to reach us. Of course, you can also make additional payments at any time.

2. Minimum Monthly Payment

This is the minimum amount you must pay by the Due Date shown on the statement.  If you only pay the minimum, you’ll end up paying more interest and it may take longer to pay off or reduce your credit card balance.

  • ANZ Instalment Plan: Your monthly Instalments form part of the ‘Minimum Monthly Payment’ amount you’ll see on your relevant credit card statements whilst a Plan applies to your account. You’ll need to pay this amount by the Due Date to meet your Plan payments (plus any overlimit or overdue amounts) shown on your statements. An important thing to be aware of is that your Minimum Monthly Payments may be higher while ANZ Instalment Plans apply to your account. That's because the Minimum Monthly Payment will include Instalments that are due. See how to pay your ANZ Instalment Plan

3. Overlimit/overdue

Any Overlimit or Overdue balance is separate from the Minimum Monthly Payment and needs to be paid immediately. You should ensure that you make payments on time to help avoid any late fees that might apply. The Minimum Monthly Payment is also required by the due date.

  • Overlimit: this is the amount your Closing Balance exceeds your credit limit by.
  • Overdue: if you do not make a Minimum Monthly Payment by the Due Date in your previous statement, this is considered overdue. The Overlimit/Overdue balance will reflect any balance that is still overdue on the date of the statement.

Account Summary

 

This is an overview of your account from the opening balance, through all of the transactions for the period, to the Closing Balance. For specific transaction details you can refer to the second page of your statement.

1. Opening balance

This is your outstanding balance at the beginning of the Statement Period shown on your statement.

2. Adjusted Closing Balance

The Adjusted Closing Balance is the Closing Balance less the sum of any Instalment Plan, Buy Now Pay Later Plan and the Promotional Balance Transfer Plan balances plus any Instalments due.

 

Minimum repayment warning

If you only make the minimum payment each month, you will pay more interest and it will take you longer to pay off your balance. The information in the warning is there to help you see how paying more than the Minimum Monthly Payment each month could help you pay off the Closing Balance more quickly.

You can make your own calculations using the MoneySmart credit card calculator to suit your own specific needs.

Also, you could use the information in the warning as a guide to:

  1. Set a goal and commit to paying off more than the required Minimum Monthly Payment.
  2. Set up recurring payments equal to or higher than the Minimum Monthly Payment to take out the hassle of when and how much to pay.

Make sure to check your statement if you make further transactions, as this may increase your Minimum Monthly Payment if the transactions you make in a given month increase your Closing Balance.

Transaction details

1. Date processed

The date the transaction was processed to your account. This may be different to the date of the transaction due to merchant processing delays, weekends or public holidays.

2. Date of transaction

The date when the transaction was made, which should match your receipt.

3. Card used

This helps you identify which card was used for a transaction. If you have additional cardholders each card number will be itemised separately. To check which card was used, match the card used to the last 4 digits on the plastic card.

4. Transaction details

Explains the transaction. It could be the shop, business or company name of the Merchant/Retailer, whether it was a payment, cash advance or fees and charges for the statement period. Please note that some businesses might have a different trading name to the billing name that appears on your statement

When you need to look closer at each transaction, you'll find all the information for this account statement period from the second page of the statement. If you see a transaction that you don't believe is accurate, you can find out more about how to dispute a transactiondisclaimer.

Reward details

If you have an ANZ Frequent Flyer credit card you’ll be able to see how many Frequent Flyer Points you’ve earned during this Statement Period.

If you have an ANZ Rewards credit card, you can view your points balance online at anzrewards.com, and log in to your account.

Accepted promotions

If you have any promotions and offers that you've accepted into your credit card account, they will show in the 'Accepted promotions' section on your statement. These can include Balance Transfers as well as any active ANZ Instalment Plans.

Need to pay your ANZ Instalment Plan?

If you have an ANZ Instalment Plan on your account and you’re currently eligible for Interest Free Days on your purchases balance, you need to make sure you pay at least the ‘Adjusted Closing Balance’ on your statement, by the Due Date. That way, you can keep enjoying your Interest Free Days.  Something to note, if you pay the ‘Closing Balance’ in full, you will also pay out your Instalment Plan in full.
