In addition, the terms and conditions and protections that apply to your card, card details and contactless readers will also apply to the use of your card details through Apple Pay on your Apple Device.

  • Not keeping your Apple device’s passcode secure may mean you’re liable for unauthorised transactions. If you think the security of your Apple device’s passcode has been compromised, call us on 13 22 65 (personal) or 13 10 12 (business).
  • Tips for keeping your Apple device’s passcode secure:

    • Don’t let anyone else register their biometric identifier (eg. Touch ID, Face ID) to your device.
    • Don’t share your Apple device’s passcode with anyone.
    • Choose a passcode that’s easy for you to remember and hard for others to guess.
    • Don’t use the same passcode as you do for your other banking or anything obvious like your date of birth.
