I'm receiving money into my account - who can see my information?

If you are receiving money into a personal account using your BSB and account number, and the payer’s financial institution participates in the Confirmation of Payee service, the person who’s paying you will be shown your account name only if the name they have entered is a match or a close match. If any of these details are incorrect, your name will not be shown to protect your privacy. 

If you’re a business or government organisation account that’s receiving a payment, the name of your account will be shown to the payer, regardless of whether it’s a match or not. 

If you have any questions or concerns on how this may impact you, please contact us.

For further information about how we manage your privacy including how you can access and correct your personal information or make a complaint about how we have handled your information, please see our Privacy and Credit Reporting Policy.
