The first time you log into the new system you will be prompted to change your password. This change is required to ensure your password is secure enough to protect your online banking activities.

To create a new password you must adhere to the following criteria:

  • Use a combination of letters and numbers
  • It must be between 8 and 16 characters long
  • Have at least one upper case and one lower case letter
  • Must be different to any of your previous five passwords.

If you've forgotten your password, you can reset it online, at any time - as long as your contact details held by Gateway are up to date and you have a mobile phone number registered with us (if you haven't, just give us a call on 1300 302 474 to get it sorted).

Here's a step by step guide to help you reset your Online Banking password:

  • Make sure you’ve got your mobile phone handy because we will send you an SMS as part of the reset process
  • Click on the link on the Online Banking login page that says Forgotten your Password?
  • Respond to the member identification questions
  • Enter the temporary password sent to your mobile phone
  • You will then be prompted to choose a new password

On successful completion of this process you will be able to login and start using Online Banking immediately.

You can change your Online Banking password at any time. Click on Settings, then select, Change My Password.

Remember your new password must be between 8 and 16 characters long and be different to any of your previous five passwords.

Gateway uses a Secure SMS code for all external transactions, including BPAY®. Secure SMS helps protect you against fraud by adding an additional level of security.

By registering for Secure SMS (free of charge), when you perform an Online Banking transaction that requires authentication, you will be prompted to verify the transaction by entering the Secure SMS code. This code will be sent to your registered mobile or landline phone number.

Secure SMS codes are required for all external transactions including BPAY® (until the destination account has been validated once) as well as for changes to your address and contact details.

When you perform a transaction within Online Banking that requires authentication, you will be asked to enter a Secure SMS code. This code will be sent to your registered mobile or landline number.

After you’ve made a transaction that required a Secure SMS code, it will be recorded as a Validated Saved Favourite. That means future transactions to that account will not require a Secure SMS code.

  1. Log in to Online Banking
  2. Select Services > Secure SMS
  3. Ensure you have access to the mobile or landline number listed - that is where the secure code will be sent. Please confirm the step to generate the validation code.
  4. Enter the validation code
  5. Once registered, you can register additional numbers, provided they are recorded on your membership.

 

If you have not provided Gateway with a mobile or landline number, or if you experience problems with Secure SMS registration, please contact us on 1300 302 474 (Monday – Friday, 8am-6pm AEST).

If you have not registered for Secure SMS, you will be unable to transfer funds to any third-party accounts or make changes to your contact details.

If the number provided via your Secure SMS doesn’t work, you will need to contact Gateway on 1300 302 474 (Monday – Friday, 8am-6pm AEST).

To add or change the registered number for Secure SMS, you will need access to the existing number. If you no longer have access, contact Gateway on 1300 302 474 (Monday – Friday, 8am-6pm AEST).

If you do have access to the existing number, go to Settings > Contact Details. A Secure SMS code will be sent to the original number registered. Once you have entered the Secure SMS code, you can then add the new number to your account.

Next go to Services > Secure SMS. Select the new number from the drop-down list. You will have to enter a new Secure SMS code to verify the change.

No, Gateway provides the Secure SMS application free of charge to Members. However, you should speak with your mobile service provider to confirm whether or not you are charged to receive SMS messages.

Online Banking will allow you three (3) attempts to enter the correct Secure SMS code. After the third attempt, you will not be able to perform any transactions or functions in Online Banking during the current session where a Secure SMS code is required. You will need to log out and login again.

You will need to contact Gateway on 1300 302 474 (Monday – Friday, 8am-6pm AEST).
