The days of sharing your BSB and account number to receive money, plus waiting around for payments to hit your account, are long gone.
Simply allocate a unique, easy to remember PayID (such as your email address or mobile number) to any of your accounts. Then share this PayID, instead of your BSB and account number, with whoever is sending you money.
Funds sent to your PayID (even from other banks) will be processed and received instantly!
To register a PayID, select ‘Manage PayID’ from the main menu in the Queensland Country mobile banking app, or from the Accounts menu in internet banking. You can also contact us to register a PayID for you.
Create PayIDs for as many accounts as you like and rest easy knowing you can keep the same PayIDs forever - they can be transferred to different accounts as your banking needs change, including at other financial institutions.
Receive payments the fast, simple way with PayID.
What is PayID?
A PayID is unique to you and you only. It could be your mobile number or email address.
So instead of giving over hard to remember BSB and account numbers, you can give them your PayID and they'll be able to transfer money to you.
No longer will you be waiting 24 to 72 hours for your friend's payment for dinner from the other night. Plus, when you receive their payment it will come with their accompanying message so you know what it's for.
And if you need to pay someone and they are registered for PayID, you’ll only need their PayID to transfer money directly into their bank account. And they'll also receive it in a super speedy timeframe!
Do you need to register for PayID?
Yes. We now invite you to register your PayID via your Internet Banking or mobile banking app.
What are the benefits of PayID?
There are a number of benefits to using a PayID including:
- It makes payments simple and does it in a way that is secure and safe.
- It's convenient as you'll only have to provide payers with details that are easy to remember such as an email address or phone number (mobile or landline).
- It gives you greater peace of mind as you no longer have to provide your financial account information, such as BSB and account number to payers in order to receive payments.
- You'll also have the ability to maintain and transfer your PayID if you change financial institutions.
How secure is PayID and Osko on the New Payments Platform (NPP)?
