New Payments Platform FAQs

• If someone knows my PayID, can they use it to commit fraud?

  No, as a PayID is only used to receive funds, not send them.

• Can someone else register my details (mobile, email) as their PayID?

  Only the owner of the device can register it as a PayID, as it requires Two-factor Authentication (2FA) in the form of a code sent to the phone number or email address provided to complete the registration. Read more about Two-factor Authentication on the Stay Smart Online website.

• What if I send the money to the wrong person?

  There are processes/procedures in place to deal with “Mistaken Payments”, if you have made a mistaken payment you need to call Credit Union SA immediately so we can attempt to recover the funds for you.

  Two-factor Authentication (2FA)	Two-factor Authentication is a process which adds another layer of security to your transactions. A unique code will be sent to your phone, or can be read from a VIP token, then entered into the relevant space where requested. Read more about Two-factor Authentication on the Stay Smart Online website.
  24/7 Fraud Monitoring	Credit Union SA will ensure that all NPP transactions are monitored 24/7. You will be contacted if we suspect you have been the victim of fraud.

  PayID payee-validation functionality allows you to see the short-name information of the person or business you’re intending to send money to, so you know your payments are going where they should.
