Making deposits & payments

Easi-Pay is Citibank's convenient Direct Debit facility which enables you to have the regular payments to your Citibank account automatically debited from your nominated bank account held within Australia.

To apply, simply download and complete the relevant Easi-Pay application form below and return the original to Citibank in order for the facility to be set up on the account.

Please Note:

For CreditCards, ReadyCredit, Personal Credit & Business Credit accounts, if you make any manual payments between due dates, then Easi-Pay will only draw the difference between the amount of the manual payments and the Easi-Pay amount.

BPAY is one of the best ways to manage your bills. It's fast, easy and convenient. It is today's way of paying bills to over 14,000 billers throughout Australia.

Notes:

  • Clearance times are longer through Australia Post than other channels as Australia Post is an agent, not a financial institution.
  • If you have been issued with a card (credit card or Citicard) and you swipe your card when making the payment; the payment is processed immediately.
  • If you pay in after 6.30pm Sydney time the payment is processed at 6.30pm the following business day.
  • Where you are paying in cash and cheques to a deposit account, Citibank advises you to pay cash and cheque elements in on separate deposit slips to ensure cash is cleared promptly without being subject to cheque clearance times.
  • Australia Post will not accept payments to an account in a business name. It is recommended that business account holders use National Australia Bank branches.

Cheque Clearance Guidelines:

  • Clearance days are based on business days in all cases. Allowances should therefore be made for Public Holidays and weekends.
  • While the times quoted below are based on the standard cheque clearance processes; they should only be used as a guideline. A cheque should not be considered cleared until it appears as cleared funds in your account.
  • When making a cheque payment to your account, it will assist us if you make your cheque payable to your Citibank account number and specify your account type e.g. Citibank Platinum Credit Card account number. It would also assist us in processing your payment if you write the actual account number on the back of your cheque.
  • Cheques payable to the accountholder may also be accepted (e.g. dividend cheque, Medicare refund, etc) but cheques payable to a third party will not be accepted.

^Including Personal Credit, Business Credit and Diners Club Credit Line

*Where clearance falls on a Saturday, you can access funds via ATM/EFTPOS/Australia Post , or make deposits & payments via CitiPhone Banking and Citibank Online.

You can make payments at any Australia Post office displaying the Bank@Post™ symbol using cash or EFTPOS and they'll be processed immediately. Remember to take your deposit slip (see below for more information on deposit booklets) and your Credit/Access Card for a faster transaction. For payments made at any other Australia Post. Please allow 48 hours for the payment to reach your account. When paying by cheque at any Australia Post office, please allow seven business days for the cheque to clear. However, funds will be considered received the day the cheque is deposited. Fees apply.
