For new credit cards, please make sure you read your Letter of Offer, because by activating your card you accept the terms and conditions.
- If you're the primary cardholder and haven't received a Letter of Offer, please give us a call.
- If you're a secondary cardholder, you'll need to wait until the primary cardholder for your account has activated their card before you can activate your own card.
For replacement cards, just so you know, your PIN will remain the same. If you have an ANZ PAYCARD or ANZ Rewards PAYCARD, your new PIN will arrive within 5-7 working days.

Tips for creating a card PIN
Things to consider when creating your new card PIN:
- Your PIN should not be based on information that is easily found such as your personal telephone number, birthday or other personal information, otherwise you may be liable for any loss suffered from an unauthorised transaction.
- Choose a PIN you'll easily remember as it must be memorised and not recorded anywhere.
- Avoid using the same PIN across different websites, applications or services, particularity when they relate to different entities.
- PINs must be kept confidential and should not be shared or revealed to anyone.
Is the secret out? What to do if your PIN isn't secure
Please notify us immediately if you're concerned your PIN has been disclosed to someone who may have unauthorised access to your ANZ credit or debit card. To do this, follow the same steps as reporting a lost or stolen card.
