Managing your card

To make a payment to the QBANK Bluey Credit Card from another Financial Institution it is a matter of completing a transfer using the BSB and Account Number associated to the credit card account.

 

This information can be found on the credit card statement, account information on internet banking, or by calling QBANK on 13 77 28 between 8.45am – 4.30pm Monday to Friday and speaking with one of our Member Service Consultants.

For card purchases (not cashout) via the ‘credit’ or ‘savings’ networks you are able to spend up to the available balance in your transaction account.

QBANK Visa Debit, Visa Credit and Cue Cards can be activated through your Internet Banking profile via “My Preferences” or the QBANK App (Visa cards only) via the “Card Management” option. This can also be achieved by calling the QBANK Member Service Centre on 13 77 28 Monday to Friday 8:45am to 4:30pm or in person at any QBANK branch during opening hours.

PIN’s can be changed/set on your Internet Banking profile via “My Preferences” or the QBANK App (Visa cards only) via the “Card Management” option. You do not need to know your PIN using these methods.

Also, this can be achieved at Cashcard ATM’s, if the current PIN is known.

The age in which a member is eligible to apply for a Visa Debit Card to their account is 18 years of age. You will need to call to discuss the card order and account usage.

Your card will be active until the last day of the expiry month with your renewal card being ordered two weeks before your expiry month.

The billing cycle is the dates between when the credit card statement is generated and when the minimum payment is due. The billing cycle runs from the 19th of the month until the 11th of the next month.

 

This means that the cardholder must make at least their minimum monthly payment between these dates so that their account does not go into arrears and also they do not incur a late payment fee.

 

Please note, the minimum payment members must make each month is 2% of the outstanding balance as at COB on the 18th of the billing month or $25, whichever is the greater.

The statement cycle or statement period is the dates which the credit card statement covers. Our statement period is from the 19th of the month to the 18th of the next month. Statements are generated on the 19th of each month and are issued within 7 days of generation.

New Payments Platform (NPP)

A PayID identifier cannot be used to take money out of an account. It can only be used to receive payments.

QBANK must follow strict identifications steps (like those already in place in the industry) to ensure a person has a right to change information registered on PayID and that they are the rightful owner, or authority, of the account it is linked to.

It’s in everyone’s interest that PayID is safe and secure which is why it is certified to the highest data security standards and monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The PayID also has high security standards and capabilities that must be met by all financial institutions that wish to register a customer’s details on the service, which they can only do with the customer’s informed consent.

This is a digital service that has been seamlessly integrated into online banking channels like the QBANK App and Internet Banking. This means the service will be easy to access alongside other existing banking services.

When a member registers an identifier with PayID via QBANK, they will be asked to give their identifier a name. This name must be an appropriate representation of the accountholder and must not intend to mislead or confuse a payer. QBANK will have the ability to display this name to the payer during the payment process to confirm that the payee is indeed the person or company they are intending to pay. In many cases, the full legal name of the account holder may also be displayed.

We are working through the implementation of the NPP and what it will mean for our members. More information will be provided when the services are closer to being launched. Learn more about our Fees and Charges.

QBANK can instigate a PayID Dispute Resolution process. This will enable the disputed identifier to be investigated and assigned to the rightful owner.

The NPP has been built to support Australia’s domestic payments capability. That’s not to say this won’t evolve and expand over time.

Osko is available for all QBANK accounts.

Most fraud in the Australian payments system is CNP (card not present) fraud, when card details are stolen and then used to make purchases or other payments without the card, mainly online.

By contrast, NPP payments are ‘push’ payments from a bank account, requiring the specific authorisation and approval of the account holder, as opposed to funds which are ‘pulled’ from a card, often without the knowledge or involvement of the cardholder, such as CNP payments.

Australian financial institutions have very good fraud detection, screening and alert systems and the NPP will incorporate these capabilities. At the same time, consumers are likely to see mechanisms such as biometric (fingerprint) login protection and two factor authentication used at certain times, for instance for payments made to a first-time payee, or over a certain amount. 

PayID and Osko have been built to support Australia’s domestic payments capability. That’s not to say this won’t evolve and expand over time.

PayTo is a digital alternative to the current direct debit system. It is an easy way to authorise and control payments from your bank account.

A vendor will set up a ‘PayTo agreement’ with you. The agreement will ask you to authorise how much, and when, you will pay for goods or services. It could be a one-off, ad-hoc, or recurring payment.  

The PayTo agreement will appear in your internet banking for your authorisation. Once you have authorised the agreement, the vendor can debit your account according to the terms that you have agreed. 

PayTo is an easy, secure payment option giving you more control over payments from your bank account.

As PayTo becomes more widely available to vendors, you’ll be able to use it for all kinds of payments.

Among other uses, PayTo may be used as a digital and more modern alternative to the current direct debit system. Some vendors will move their direct debits to PayTo to provide a better customer experience with more visibility and control over their payments.

If you have a query about a PayTo agreement, you should first get in touch with the vendor. If they are not able to resolve your query, please get in touch with us.

PayTo is a safe way to use your bank account for payments as PayTo agreements must first be authorised within your internet banking.

If you have a PayTo agreement with a vendor that has taken payment that you believe to be outside of the terms of the agreement, you should contact them to rectify it.

More information about the New Payments Platform, PayID and Osko can be found on the NPPA FAQ Page


 

Credit Card Reforms

The Australian Government passed legislation that changed the way we calculate interest on credit card purchases. From 1 June 2019, if you do not pay the full closing balance as shown on your statement, interest for purchases will start being calculated from the day after the payment due date.

The revised way of calculating interest on purchases will affect you differently depending on your own personal circumstance.

(a) For those who pay their closing balance in full every month:

If you continue to pay off your closing balance in full every month by the due date you will not be directly impacted, and you will continue to pay no interest on purchases.

(b) For those currently paying interest on existing purchase:

These changes will not immediately impact you as nothing will change until you have paid your closing balance in full and regain the interest-free days.

(c) For those who generally pay their closing balance in full but sometimes miss a full payment and pay interest on purchases:

From 1 June 2019, if you do not pay off your closing balance in full by the payment due date you will start incurring interest from the next day. Once the most recent closing statement balance or current balance plus interest is paid off in full, the interest-free period will resume from your next retail purchase.

You can request to reduce the credit limit on your card at any time online via this form, via phone or at one of our branches. Please note that you are unable to reduce your limit any lower than your current balance or product minimum (see Terms and Conditions). We may need to communicate with you the steps you must take prior to the limit reduction (for example paying off any amount that exceeds the requested limit).

You can request to close your credit card at any time online via this form, via phone or at one of our branches.  If you request to close your credit card we will process this as soon as we can. As part of finalising the closure, we may need to communicate with you the steps you must take prior to us closing the card (for example reducing your balance).

If you change your mind and wish to reinstate your credit card, you will need to apply for a new credit card. This includes a new credit assessment.

A closing balance is the total amount outstanding on a credit card account relating to credit provided in respect of purchases, together with certain fees, interest charges and other charges.

An interest-free period is the maximum possible length of time between the first day of a statement period and the payment due date.

A common misconception is that “up to 55 days interest-free” means you will have 55 days to pay off a purchase before any interest will be charged. However, your interest-free period actually starts from the first day of your statement cycle, not from the moment you make a purchase. Up to 55 days interest-free refers to the maximum number of interest-free days that may be available on a purchase. How many days you have depends on when you make a purchase during the statement cycle and the total number of days within that statement cycle (accounting for differences in the number of days within calendar months).

For example, if you wanted to take advantage of the maximum number of interest-free days available for a particular statement cycle, a purchase would need to be made on the first day of your statement cycle. However, if you made a purchase on day 20 of your statement cycle, you would only have up to 35 days interest-free. Keep in mind that to utilise the interest-free period on purchases you need to pay the full closing balance by the payment due date on every monthly statement. If you don't pay it in full each month, you don’t get your interest-free period. Furthermore, if you have a balance transfer that is currently unpaid, all other purchases will earn interest immediately, leaving you with no interest-free days.


 

Automated Statements Retrieval

This is a secure online service approved by QBANK, that automatically retrieves statements through your online banking and sends it directly to us. The service is a one-time retrieval – which will only happen with your authorisation.

The statements are used solely for the purposes of a loan application. The statement retrieval is initiated by you and statements are stored in a secure database where only QBANK can access them.

Data is encrypted with 256-bit encryption, secured by 2048-bit keys. This is the same level of encryption that all major banks use. Your login credentials are never stored and are securely discarded once you have used the service.

This service is owned and developed by an Australian company that adheres to Australian privacy principles and laws. Your personal details are never shared with or sold to third parties.


 

Least cost merchant routing

Yes. If you wish to control the network your purchase is processed via, you can select your preferred debit network by inserting your card and making a selection (savings or credit), rather than using tap-and-go or contactless payment options.

No. Currently mobile wallet transactions, such as Google Pay and Apple Pay, are processed as credit transactions and are therefore unaffected by this change.

No. It only applies to dual-network debit cards. It does not affect members using credit cards or single network debit cards.

Most debit cards issued in Australia are dual-network cards:  these cards support both an international network (VISA or Mastercard) and the domestic eftpos network and therefore have an international network logo on one side and the eftpos logo on the other. This means that debit card transactions can be routed through either of those networks. Any transaction typically draws on the same deposit account regardless.

Traditionally, when a card was inserted into a point of sale terminal, cardholders determined how their debit transactions were processed, by pressing either the CHQ or SAV buttons for eftpos or the CR button for the international network.

Due to these changes, you may see an increase of eftpos purchase transactions on your statement when using contactless payment options.

Please call our Member Service Team on 13 77 28 between 8.45am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday to discuss your options.

Merchants and shopfronts now have the option to send a contactless transaction via the network of their choice (VISA or eftpos), whichever costs them the least to accept.

From 1 December 2019, QBANK will increase the number of monthly fee-free eftpos transactions from 8 to 12 on the On Call account and remove all fees from the Pension Plus account.


 

Apple Pay

Apple Pay Security

Yes, Apple Pay is secure. A unique Device Account Number is securely stored on a chip in the device so payment can be made without any card information having to be shared with the retailer.

 

Other features which help to keep your payments secure and safe include:

iPhone and iPad

Payments can only be authorised by using Touch ID or Face ID (if enabled), or by entering the device passcode.

 

Apple Watch

Payments can only be authorised if the device passcode has been entered, you’re wearing your Apple Watch and skin contact with the device has not been lost. If the device is removed from your wrist, Wrist Detect deactivates the Near Field Communication (NFC) feature and Apple Pay. To re-activate the NFC feature and Apple Pay the device passcode has to be re-entered.

 

Please note: you should never share your device passcode, or register more than one person’s biometrics (fingerprint or face), while your card is registered to Apple Pay.

 

How secure is an Apple Pay transaction?

Apple Pay is very secure. You’re protected through your Apple device’s security settings (i.e. Face ID, Touch ID or your device passcode) on every transaction.

In addition, QBANK monitors your transactions to identify any unusual account activity. For further information on Apple Pay security, visit the Apple support page: https://support.apple.com/en-au/HT203027

 

Will merchants receive my physical card number?

No. Apple doesn’t store or have access to the original card numbers of credit, debit or prepaid cards that you add to Apple Pay.

Be sure to check that the Card selected in Google Pay is the one that you used for the original purchase. In some cases you may also be asked for the last few digits of your Card number.

If this happens, you should provide the last few digits of your virtual account number. To view the last four or five digits of the virtual account number go to "Card details" or "Transaction details.

Check with your retailer before making the return, as some merchants will require your physical card to process the refund.
