Benefits of getting a credit card with Westpac

Mobile payments

Westpac credit cards can be added to the following mobile wallets and apps:

Westpac Extras

This complimentary program gives you access to cashback offers with well-known brands and stores in Australia. You'll see the latest offers when you log in to Westpac Live. You can also sign up to get offers emailed to you. When you get an offer, you just need to shop at the store and pay with your eligible Westpac credit card, and the cashback will be added to your account as a statement credit.

You can get Westpac Extras offers with any personal Westpac credit card, but not with the Westpac BusinessChoice, Westpac corporate credit cards, Westpac consumer or business debit cards. Also keep in mind that payments made through platforms like PayPal are not eligible to earn cashback.

Westpac SmartPlan credit card instalment plans

Westpac SmartPlan lets you pay off your credit card balance in regular, monthly instalments. This means you'll pay the same amount for your plan each month. Some SmartPlans also offer a reduced interest rate, with 2 main types to choose from:

• Large Purchase SmartPlan. You can set up a Large Purchase SmartPlan for any single purchase worth $500 or more as long as it's been made in the past 30 days. This makes it suited to individual big-ticket items bought with your credit card, such as a new laptop, flights or hotel bookings. Keep in mind that establishment fees apply and will be shown before you set up a plan.
• Balance SmartPlan. This option allows you to set up instalments for any credit card balance of $200 or more.

You can set up a Westpac SmartPlan in a few clicks through online banking or the Westpac App.

Westpac PartPay

Similar to buy now pay later, Westpac PartPay lets you split purchases of $100 or more into 4 fortnightly repayments. The repayments come out of your nominated bank account and there are no additional fees as long as you have enough money in your account for each fortnight's automatic repayment.

If you have an eligible Westpac credit card, you can set up PartPay through the Westpac App and will get a digital card (linked to your credit card account). Then, just use your PartPay card to make any purchases you want to pay for in instalments.

Annual fee waiver - home loan offer

With a Westpac Home Loan Premier Advantage Package, you can get the annual fee waived on one of the following credit cards:

Existing customers may also get a fee waiver for an eligible credit card that is no longer taking new applications. Just note that the Advantage Package only offers one credit card fee waiver per package.

Security features

Westpac credit card security includes 24-hour fraud protection monitoring services for your account, added online security through Mastercard Identity Check and Visa Secure and an online transaction security guarantee to ensure you're not liable for online transactions made without your knowledge or consent.

The Westpac Global ATM Alliance network

When you get a Westpac credit card, you can use it to withdraw cash for free at ATMs that are part of the Westpac Group. This includes ATMs offered by Westpac, St.George, BankSA and Bank of Melbourne. You can also save on ATM withdrawal fees worldwide thanks to the Westpac Global ATM alliance.

How to apply for a Westpac credit card

Frequently asked questions

• What is the best Westpac credit card?

  There isn't one best Westpac credit card that will suit everyone, because people get credit cards for all kinds of reasons. But the 2025 Finder Credit Card Awards used expert analysis of 12 months' worth of data to determine the best credit cards and Westpac credit cards were recognised in the following categories:

  • Best Velocity Frequent Flyer Credit Card (winner): Westpac Altitude Velocity Black
  • Best Qantas Frequent Flyer Credit Card (highly commended): Westpac Altitude Qantas Black
  • Best No FX fees Credit Card (highly commended): Westpac Lite Card

  Keep in mind: There's no one best credit card for everyone, so check details that matter to you. You can also view the full list of 2025 Finder Credit Card Awards, including details of the methodology for each category to help decide if one of these cards is right for you.

• How do I pay a Westpac credit card?

  If you're an existing Westpac credit card user, you can choose to make your repayments using any of the following:

  BPAY

  BPAY gives you a way to pay your Westpac credit card from another bank account. You need to make the payment through your bank's online banking platform, and require the following details:

  • Biller name: Westpac Cards
  • Biller code: 5181
  • Reference number: Your Westpac credit card number

  Card AutoPay

  You can set up automatic payments using your Australian savings or transaction account. If you wish to set up automatic payments using an existing Westpac account, you can do so through online banking or by calling 1300 130 961 (8am-8pm, 7 days a week). To use an account with a different financial intuition, you have to take a completed Card Autopay Request form into any Westpac branch along with your ID.

  When setting up your automatic repayments, you can choose to pay a set amount of the closing balance, a percentage of the closing balance, the minimum payment due or the full balance.

  Transfer from an existing Westpac account

  Existing transaction account holders with Westpac get three ways to make repayments towards their credit card accounts:

  • Login to Westpac's online banking platform and transfer funds from your transaction accounts to your credit card accounts
  • Use Westpac's phone banking platform and authorise payments towards your credit card accounts
  • Make repayments by visiting your closest ATM and transferring funds from your transaction accounts to your credit card accounts

  Make payments at a Westpac Branch

  If you live or work close to a Westpac branch, you can simply walk into a branch and make your repayments during opening hours. Most Westpac branches are open between 9:30 am and 4:00pm, Monday to Friday.

• How much do I have to repay every month?

  You must make at least the minimum monthly payment, and you also have the option of paying more each month. Paying as much as you can towards the outstanding balance will help minimise the interest you pay. Here are the key details:

  • The greater of 2% of your closing balance or $10; and
  • The greater of any unpaid past due amounts from previous statements or any amount that exceeds your credit limit.
  • If your closing balance is less than $10, you must repay the full amount.

• How do I transfer a balance to a Westpac credit card when I apply?

  To transfer your existing credit card debt to a Westpac credit card under a balance transfer promotion, proceed through the online application as normal. You’ll be asked whether you want to transfer a balance when it comes to the point of the application where you’re asked about your financial situation. Enter the card number, the amount you want to transfer and select the name of the institution that provides the card. See our guide on how to conduct a balance transfer with Westpac for further information.

• How much can I transfer to a Westpac credit card?

  You can transfer up to 80% of your approved credit limit to a Westpac credit card.

• What’s the minimum repayment on my Westpac credit card?

  You must make a payment to your credit card every month as advised by your monthly statement. Your statement will note when the payment is due and what minimum payment is required. The minimum payment will be equal to 2% of the closing balance or $10, whichever is greater – added on to any unpaid due amount. If you need to move your statement date so it coincides with your pay, then you can call Westpac to discuss this.

• How do I activate my Westpac card?

  You can activate your new Westpac credit card online or through the Westpac mobile app by logging in and following the prompts. You can also activate it through phone banking by calling 1300 308 930.

• How do I cancel my Westpac card?

  You can cancel your Westpac credit card account in a few minutes through Internet baking or the Westpac App at any time. You could also cancel your account by calling Westpac on 132 032 or by visiting a branch. Just keep in mind that you will need to make sure there are no outstanding payments before the account can be fully closed.

• How can I lock or unlock my Westpac credit card?

  If you have misplaced your Westpac card, you have the option of temporarily locking it so that no unauthorised transactions are made. You can do this online or through the mobile app using the following steps:

  1. Log in to your account.
  2. Go to "Services and preferences" if you're online, or "Services and security" if you're using the mobile app.
  3. Go to the "Card services" section and select "Lock a card temporarily".
  4. Choose the card you want to lock. A padlock will appear next to it to show that it is locked.

  You can also unlock your card from this screen in online or mobile banking. Otherwise, this "card on hold" service will last for a maximum of 15 days before it is unlocked again. If you haven't found your card at this time, you should report it through your online or mobile account. Alternatively, you can report a lost or stolen card by calling 1300 130 961.
