What is PayID?
PayID is like a nickname for your account. It can be your phone number, email address, Australian Business Number (ABN), Australian Company Number (ACN) or organisation ID and is unique to each customer. It doesn’t replace a BSB and account number, which stays exactly the same, but is easier to remember.
Easy to remember
Simpler to remember and share your PayID than your BSB and account number.
Safe and secure
Transactions have the same security protection as your existing accounts and payments.
Control your payments to businesses
Use your PayID to set up PayTo®disclaimer agreements and control when businesses can take money out of your account.
Check or update your details to ensure the mobile number or email address you want to use are registered to your ANZ App or Internet Banking profile. This is crucial to the set up process as we will send a verification code to your ANZ registered mobile number or email to confirm it’s you setting up a PayID.
