Changes to your internet banking login

  • When you log in to internet banking, you'll see refreshed sign-in screens with a cleaner layout.
  • How you log in hasn't changed — you'll still use your existing access number and password.

  • During the rollout, you may notice the web address (URL) change when you log in to internet banking or move between different parts. This is expected and your banking remains secure.
  • Genuine NZHL URLs always contain "nzhltransact.co.nz".
  • We'll be rolling out these updates in phases to small groups of customers, so not everyone will see the updates straight away.
