Why should I rename my accounts?

Renaming an account will help you identify it when making payments/transfers.

  • For example: If you have two credit cards linked to your ANZ Internet Banking, both will display as "Credit Card" in your accounts drop down list when making payments/transfers. 
  • To avoid confusion and ensure you transfer to the correct account, it's a good idea to rename the accounts so that they can be easily identified.
Will renaming accounts also update the records of the bank?

No. Renaming accounts will not change the official records of the bank. The new name that you have given to the account will only display throughout your ANZ Internet Banking session.
