If your account number begins with ’38’ the ‘Bank’ is Kiwibank and the ‘Branch’ is Wellington, PO Box 2082. Please send to New Zealand Home Loans, Client Care, PO Box 2082, Wellington 6140.

Why do you only have mobile banking for ‘38’ customers?
We know,  it’s not ideal that not everyone gets to have mobile banking! We’re working really hard to get this sorted because we know that having this access is important but as yet we don’t have a confirmed eta for this.
Do I have to use the 4 digit security code to login? 

No, this can be controlled in the “Settings” page. Can I use the same 4 digit pin as I use to unlock my smartphone already? Yes, although this is not recommended (e.g. kids that know your phone pin to play games will then be able to get into banking as well). What if I forget my 4 digit security code? Simple, just press “Login help” > “I forgot my code” and then use your standard internet banking login details. What if I want to change their 4 digit security code? Simple, just press “Settings” > “Security” > “Change Security Code”.
