Why are we making changes?
We've been working on exciting changes to enhance your internet banking experience with new features and more functionality.
We'll be rolling out these updates in phases to small groups of our kiritaki (customers), which means that some internet banking pages may have a fresh new look, while others will look the same for now. Think of it like renovating your house room by room — some rooms will be finished, some are being worked on and others are waiting for their turn.
By the end of our renovation project, our entire internet banking experience will be updated with a fresh new look and enhanced features. In the meantime, we appreciate your patience while we roll up our sleeves and get to work.
What's changing?
- When you log in to internet banking, you'll see a new Accounts dashboard with some enhanced features to make it even easier to do your banking online
- Some pages may have a new look, while other pages will still look the same for now
- Not everyone will have a new internet banking experience yet, so don't be surprised if your whānau, friends or colleagues can't see the updated pages yet
- When you move between new and old pages, the URL will change. It's important to note that authentic Kiwibank URLS will always contain "kiwibank.co.nz". Once the upgrade is completed and rolled out to all customers, the URL will be consistent across internet banking. In the meantime, you can expect to see pages switching between the following URLs:
- banking.kiwibank.co.nz/...
- www.ib.kiwibank.co.nz/...
- The notes feature is being retired, but you'll still be able to see your previously saved notes.
What do I need to do?
