Online banking is getting a refresh

We’re improving online banking to make it simpler, more secure and ready for the future. As updates roll out, we’ll keep you up to date with what’s changing and what it means for you.

Here's what to expect

A new look for Transfers in internet banking

  • We're refreshing the transfers experience to make it easier to move money between your accounts in internet banking.
  • You'll notice a cleaner layout, with the same secure way to transfer. See step-by-step instructions for making a transfer.

Web addresses may look different

During the rollout, you may notice the web address (URL) change when:

  • you log in to internet banking, or
  • you move between different parts of internet banking.

This is expected and your banking is secure. For security, we recommend logging into internet banking through the Kiwibank website.

How to tell you’re on a genuine Kiwibank or NZHL page

  • Genuine Kiwibank web addresses will always include "kiwibank.co.nz".
  • Genuine NZHL web addresses will always include "nzhltransact.co.nz".

Keep banking as usual

You don't need to do anything as we work through the refresh, just log in to online banking as usual.

Like renovating a house, we're updating things gradually — some areas may have a new look, while others will still look the same for now.

Thanks for your patience while we make these improvements. If you have any questions, please read our guide below.
