Changes to Personal NAB Credit Card terms and conditions and NAB StraightUp Card terms and conditions
Changes to our Personal NAB Credit Card terms and conditions and NAB StraightUp Card terms and conditions
We’re updating our Personal NAB Credit Card terms and conditions and NAB StraightUp Card terms and conditions. This is in response to the following law and policy changes:
National Credit Code (NCC)
The NCC has amended how credit providers may notify customers of changes to interest rates and credit card fees & charges. It has removed the reference to providing notice of these changes by publishing ‘in a newspaper’ and now refers to ‘a notice published by your credit provider’. We have amended our terms to be consistent with this change.
NAB’s Financial Abuse policy
We’re introducing the new ’Unacceptable Account Conduct’ policy into our NAB Credit Card terms and conditions, making it clear that NAB doesn’t tolerate financial abuse conducted through NAB’s credit cards and electronic banking channels.
Interactive Gambling Act 2001
Under new laws introduced by the Federal Government, customers will not be able to use a credit card to pay for betting transactions online. This change comes into effect 11 June 2024. NAB’s amendment to its terms consistent with this change, will apply from that date. This change will be made to our Personal NAB Credit Card terms and conditions only. All gambling transactions are already blocked under the NAB StraightUp Credit Card terms and conditions.

Effective 18 April 2024, the following changes apply to the Personal NAB Credit Card terms and conditions (PDF, 1MB), opens in new window.
Under Section 1.3 Ways you can and can’t transact, under Cash Advances, the second paragraph will be replaced with:
This can include purchasing traveller’s cheques, wire transfers, domestic lottery transactions and other similar substitutes for cash (such as cryptocurrency). Keep in mind that cash advances typically attract a higher interest rate than purchases – so you should only use your card for cash advances when absolutely necessary.
*Please note, from 11 June 2024, betting transactions will no longer be permitted due to changes to the Interactive Gambling Act 2001.
Under Section 6 How we communicate with each other, the By publication section will be replaced with:
By publication
We may publish notices electronically and notify you that we have done this.

We consider the notice received when we let you know that the notice is available for viewing.

At the end of the Further terms of our agreement section, the following will be added:
Unacceptable Account Conduct
We seek to protect our customers from harm arising from unlawful use of, or financial abuse conducted through, our products. We recognise financial abuse may happen to anyone and can include forms of family and domestic violence or elder abuse.
We will investigate instances where we identify or are made aware that a product is being used in a financially abusive manner, including coercive or controlling behaviour to limit a person’s access to or use of funds.
We may reasonably exercise our rights in this contract to block use of a card or your account, or not agree to a credit limit increase, if we reasonably consider it appropriate to protect a customer or another person from financial abuse.
