Back in 2002, we launched with a thought: New Zealand needs a better banking alternative—a bank that provides real value for money, that has Kiwi values at heart, and that keeps Kiwi money where it belongs—right here, in New Zealand.
So we set up shop in PostShops throughout the country, putting us in more locations than any other bank in New Zealand literally overnight (without wasting millions on new premises!).
Just a few short years later, we have more than 650,000 customers, with hundreds more joining each week.
We have more than 800 Kiwibank staff around the country and a nationwide ATM network. We're in more than 300 PostShops, which means we can stay open longer than other banks, even on weekends in many places.
