Real-time payments

The New Payments Platform is an industry initiative in Australia to provide faster and easier payments across participating institutions.

Real-time payments are transactions processed almost immediately and available 24/7 between participating institutions. You no longer have to wait up to 3 business days for payments to reach your account, real-time payments provide convenience and speed.

A PayID is a unique identifier, like a phone number or email address, that you can securely link to your bank account. Then when you want somebody to transfer funds into your account, you can give them your PayID instead of your BSB and account number.

Osko by BPAY is the first consumer service to be built on the New Payments Platform to use the PayID functionality. Osko sends payments fast between financial institutions, 24/7 – even on weekends! In most cases it will arrive in under a minute. Osko payments can be made using a PayID or BSB and account number with participating banks and financial institutions.

If an external institution is enabled for NPP then you can also receive instant payments via BSB and account number via Osko.

• Speed – the ability to make payments in real time, processing payments within 60 seconds.
• 24/7 availability – Available to process payments 24/7, 365 days a year.
• Data Enriched – option to provide more details with the payment
• Simple Addressing – Easily identify accounts using PayID. Providing an alternative and easier way to address payments by using just your mobile number or email address.

No, from November all eligible payments will be sent as real-time, Osko payments via the New Payments Platform. If a recipients institutions isn’t enabled for NPP then you will be notified and the payment will be processed as a Direct Entry (EFT) payment where eligible.

This will usually take 24 - 48 hours to arrive in the destination account. Please note that funds transferred on a weekend or public holiday may take longer as they will leave your Qudos Bank account during the end of day processing on the next business day.

 End of day processing occurs each weekday at 4pm.

If your real-time payment is rejected, in most cases it will be automatically re-processed via Direct Entry(EFT) and take approximately 1-2 days to reach the destination account. You will receive a notification via email and SMS advising you of the rejected payment.

If a payment can’t be processed it will appear in your transaction list in Online Banking or the App as a failed transaction. You will need to re-attempt the payment again or try new payee details.
