More on accounts

Managing your finances more effectively

Register for Internet Banking

Save time and stay in control of your finances with our easy to use Internet Banking service. Get direct access to your accounts, transactions and statements, as well as making payments – meaning no waiting in line or on the phone.

Manage access to Internet Banking

As well as choosing who has access to your accounts, you can also select the level of access for each individual. Set up multiple users and make sure they have the right level of access to support the management of your finances.

Manage access to your accounts: changing your mandate

A mandate shows who’s named on your organisation’s account and what they’re able to do. Adding someone to your mandate means you can let them make payments, talk to us about transactions, access Internet Banking and apply for products.

Online Payment Control

Online Payment Control helps you manage who can make and approve payments within our Internet Banking service. You can set all payments to be approved by two or three users – ideal if you need more than one person to authorise payments.

Mobile Banking App

Manage your accounts on the go with our Mobile Banking App. You can pay in cheques – without the need to visit a branch, easily search for transactions, make payments, transfer money and lots more.

Deposit cheques

Depositing cheques via the Mobile Banking App is easy and means you don’t need to make a trip into a branch. Find out how in this step-by-step guide.

Debit Cards

Easily withdraw cleared funds, check your balance and make contactless payments using a Debit Card.

Post Office® counter services
