Here’s a few tips for choosing your new PIN for your credit card:

  • Choose a 4-digit number that’s easy for you to remember
  • Don’t use numbers that are easily identified with you such as your birth date, address or phone number.
  • Don’t use repeated numbers e.g. 4444.
  • Don’t use consecutive numbers e.g. 1234.
  • Your PIN must not be the last or first 4 digits of your card number or customer number.
  • Don’t write down your PIN (this includes storing it on your mobile phone) or try to disguise it written down.

You can change your PIN through our eMoney Mobile app, or by logging into our web version of eMoney.

Visa Secure is an additional security feature for online shopping at participating sellers. You are automatically enrolled in the service as part of your Credit Card Terms and Conditions.

  • Ensure the website is secure by looking out for a padlock symbol on the address bar.
  • Don’t disclose your personal or credit card details if you’re unsure about the website security.
  • Never give out your credit card details via email.
  • If you’re shopping on a mobile device, stick to sites and apps that you’re familiar with.
  • Use common sense – if it doesn’t look or feel right, then most likely it’s not.
Secure chip technology uses a microchip embedded in your credit card to store your card’s data. Basically, it turns your information into a unique code when used at any EFTPOS terminal, which makes it difficult for anyone to copy and gives your card added security against fraud.
The chip on your credit card will store exactly the same details that would be contained on a magnetic stripe, such as your name, card number and expiry date. However, because the information is encrypted and uses various security measures to verify and validate your identity, it is extremely difficult to copy or counterfeit, giving you greater protection when you use your card.
