Get the most from a Westpac Debitplus™ Visa card. Debitplus is the convenient way to buy products and services. You simply use it to access funds in your normal Westpac account, just like an EFTPOS/ATM card. About the card Debitplus, it’s the easy way to buy things using your own money. But Debitplus offers you some extra advantages. Unlike an EFTPOS/ATM card, you can use it to make purchases online, over the phone or overseas. That’s because your Debitplus card is accepted everywhere you see the Visa sign. And although it carries a Visa logo, you can rest assured that Debitplus is not a credit card. You’ll only be spending money from your everyday Westpac account. Six reasons to make Debitplus your main EFTPOS/ATM card: 1. Access your own money from your everyday Westpac account. 2. Make everyday purchases via EFTPOS. 3. Get cash from ATMs, just like an ATM card. 4. Use Debitplus everywhere Visa is accepted – in New Zealand and around the world. 5. Shop online. 6. Shop over the phone. Westpac Debitplus Visa 3 Convenient ways to use Debitplus Everyday purchases via EFTPOS and cash from ATMs* A Debitplus card can be used wherever you would normally use an EFTPOS or ATM card in New Zealand. Whether you’re withdrawing cash for the weekend or paying for lunch at a café, your Debitplus card is all you need. Just enter your PIN and use your Debitplus card like an ordinary EFTPOS/ ATM card, and it will access the money from your everyday account. Shop online or by phone You can use a Debitplus card to pay for purchases over the internet and phone - wherever Visa is accepted. It’s not a credit card, but you have the convenience of the worldwide Visa network to make life easy. So next time you order a pizza over the phone or book flights online, just use your Debitplus card. Accepted all over the world Debitplus can be used at any ATM overseas wherever you see the Plus or Visa logo, just like an EFTPOS/ATM card. And you have the added bonus of using Debitplus at any retailer around the world that accepts Visa. So you can get cash from an ATM in France or pay for your hotel in Fiji. You’ll still be accessing your own money from your everyday account back home, using the global Visa network. That includes more than 1 million ATMs and over 24 million retail outlets around the world**. Save $8 when you withdraw money overseas with Global Alliance The Debitplus card gives you access to the Global Alliance bank network. This network allows you to withdraw money around the world at participating Global Alliance ATMs, without paying the $8 international withdrawal fee. We’ve listed the banks that belong to the network on a pop-out card at the back of this brochure, so you can take it with you on your travels. 4 * Any transactions made at another bank’s ATM will incur an additional $1 charge each time. ** Foreign currency fees and overseas ATM charges apply.

Under our Conditions of Use you are required to: • keep your Personal Identification Number (PIN) secure, • agree that your card is the property of Westpac, • sign your card as soon as you receive it. If you have any enquiries about your Westpac Debitplus card, you can call us between 7am and 11pm, 7 days a week on 0800 888 111. If you need to write to us, our address is: Westpac, Private Bag 92503, Wellesley Street, Auckland. Please let us know straight away if you change your address. 10 Receiving and signing your card When you receive your card you must immediately sign it. You must not use your card until you have signed it. You must not send your card overseas or have any other person send your card to you overseas. Please contact us to find out about sending a card overseas or receiving a card while you are overseas. Ownership of your card Your card and card number are the property of Westpac. You must not copy or reproduce the card. If Westpac tells you to return or destroy your card then you must do so. Selecting your PIN When you are issued with your card, you will be required to call at a Westpac branch with the card and two other forms of identification (one of which must have your signature on it) in order to select a Personal Identification Number (PIN). Your PIN enables you to use your card in electronic funds devices such as ATMs and EFTPOS terminals. Protecting your card or PIN For your security, your PIN must not be: • written down, especially not on the card • kept in any form with the card, or • disclosed to any other person, including the Police, family members or bank staff, or • negligently or recklessly disclosed. You must ensure no one can see you enter your PIN at ATMs and EFTPOS terminals. Westpac Debitplus Visa 11 Conditions of Use When you select your PIN, you should choose a number that you will be able to remember easily as you must memorise it. You must not choose unsuitable numbers such as birth dates, months or years, parts of your telephone number, parts of your card number or sequential or easily identified numbers (e.g. 2345 or 2222). You must also not use numbers from personal data such as your driver’s licence or locker number or other numbers easily connected with you. You must exercise every possible care to ensure the safety of your card and to prevent disclosure of your PIN. You must not allow others to use your card, card number or PIN. Always get your card back after using it. Do not leave your card in an unattended wallet, purse or vehicle or anywhere a thief could remove the card without being noticed (particularly in night clubs, hotels or restaurants). If your card is lost or stolen together with your PIN, it can be used for unauthorised transactions, which may result in a loss to you. Lost or stolen cards/PINs You must notify Westpac immediately if: • your card is lost or stolen • your PIN becomes known to someone else • a record of your PIN is lost or stolen. You will be required to provide information on how the loss occurred. If you are outside New Zealand, please: • notify a bank which displays the Visa symbol, or • if you cannot find a bank which displays the Visa symbol, notify us by calling +64 9 914 8026 collect. There may be a charge to your account if a replacement card is required. You should also be aware of the following conditions concerning your card: Liabilities Liability for losses which result from lost/ stolen cards/PINs Once you have told us that your card has been lost or stolen, or your PIN disclosed, either in New Zealand or overseas, you will not be held responsible for any unauthorised use of your card after that time, unless you have acted fraudulently or negligently. You will be liable to pay no more than $50 of any loss that occurs before you notify us. 12 However, this $50 limit will not apply if: • you have failed to reasonably safeguard your card, • you have kept a written record of your PIN on or with your card, • you have kept your PIN in a form that can be readily identified as a PIN, • you have selected an unsuitable PIN, • you have disclosed your PIN to anyone, whether family or those in apparent authority including bank staff, or let them use your card, • you have unreasonably delayed notifying us that your card has been lost or stolen, or that your PIN has been disclosed, • you have failed to take all reasonable steps to prevent disclosure to any other person when keying in your PIN, • you have acted fraudulently or negligently, or • you have breached these Conditions of Use. In the above instances, your maximum liability will be the lesser of: • the actual loss at the time of notification, or • the maximum amount that you would have been entitled to withdraw from your account between the time your card is lost/stolen and the time you notify us. If your card gives you access to an account with a credit facility (e.g. Choices home loan), failure to look after your card and PIN could result in a substantial loss for which you could be held responsible. There may also be a charge to your account if a replacement card is required. Westpac’s liability Westpac will be responsible for any direct and/or reasonably foreseeable loss or damage caused by the failure of either your card or any electronic funds device (excluding any card or EFT terminal which is obviously faulty, or in the case of an EFT terminal which has been advised by message notice or display as being faulty) to function properly. We will also be liable for any direct or indirect loss or damage which results from the fraudulent or negligent acts or omissions of our employees or agents. Westpac Debitplus Visa 13 Liability for transactions charged to your account You are responsible for all transactions made with the use of your card or card number. You will be required to pay us the amounts on all: • cash advance and sales vouchers signed or authorised by you or another cardholder on your account, • mail, telephone, internet order or email transactions and cycle payments authorised by you or another cardholder on your account, • EFT transactions carried out on your account using your card(s) or the card of another cardholder on your account, • other transactions authorised by you or another cardholder on your account and approved by us. There are risks involved if you or another cardholder on your account initiate a transaction by mail order, telephone order, internet or by email. You are giving authority to the Visa merchant to process an EFT transaction or issue a sales voucher for the purchase amount which will be debited to your account. You should consider the security and standing of the company or entity you are doing business with. If you or another cardholder on your account initiate cycle payment transactions, i.e. if you agree with a Visa merchant that an amount will be debited against your account on a regular basis, then you are liable for meeting those transaction amounts even if you close your account. In certain circumstances your agreement with the merchant may authorise the debiting of your account with additional purchase amounts without the need for your signature. Provided these amounts have been incurred under the terms of that agreement they may be charged to your account. Incorrect or unauthorised transactions If you think a transaction shown on your statement is incorrect, you can dispute it, provided you notify us in writing within 30 days of the statement period closing date. 14 In some situations, if you do not receive the goods or services you have ordered with your card or by use of your card number, or you have not authorised a transaction, you may be able to get a credit for the transaction. Card transaction requirements Use of your card constitutes an irrevocable order to Westpac, and you may not stop payment of a transaction made using your card. There are limited circumstances under which we can reverse a transaction which will be subject to the rules of the relevant credit card company. For example, we cannot reverse a transaction where there is a dispute with a merchant about the quality of goods and services. We will not be responsible for the goods and services supplied by any merchant, and any complaints you have with the merchant must be resolved by you. Electronic funds transfers will be debited to your account on the day the transaction is made, or as soon as possible thereafter, subject to our right to vary the date of debiting due to circumstances beyond our control. When you use your card in an electronic funds device other than a Westpac ATM or branch terminal, the transaction will be processed as soon as we are notified by the bank that owns the electronic funds device you used. When systems are fully operational, the daily transaction limits for EFT transactions made with your card, subject to your available credit limit and available funds in your nominated account(s), are a maximum of: • $10,000 for EFT transactions from all accounts that can be accessed by your card, or • $1,500 for ATM cash withdrawals from any account, or combination of accounts, that can be accessed by your card, plus • other EFT transactions from all accounts that can be accessed by your card, up to a maximum of $10,000, less the amount of any ATM cash withdrawals made in the same day. Westpac Debitplus Visa 15 You will be obliged to pay any amounts debited to your accounts which exceed the daily EFT transaction limits. In addition, there may be a daily limit on the number of EFT transactions you may make using your Debitplus card. In respect of off-line funds transfers, any voucher signed or authorised by you shall be authority for us to process the transaction to your account. The transaction will be processed as soon as we receive it. If you initiate a transaction with your card by mail order, telephone order or via the internet you are authorising the Visa merchant to process an EFT transaction or issue a sales voucher for the purchase amount, which will be debited to your account. If you initiate cycle payment transactions (i.e. if you agree with a Visa merchant that an amount will be debited against your account on a regular basis), then you are liable for meeting those transaction amounts even if you close your account. The acceptance of an electronic funds transfer or an off-line funds transfer is not a representation by us that you have sufficient funds in your account to cover the transfer of funds. Where a transfer overdraws your account, normal overdraft charges will apply. Details of these charges are available from any of our branches or by calling us on 0800 888 111. If an off-line funds transfer is processed to an account that has been closed or is open and there are insufficient funds to permit the transaction, we will not be deemed in any way to have consented to that transfer. You are liable for meeting the transaction amount. If you wish to dispute a transaction on your statement, you may do so. See the section on ‘Transaction disputes’ later in this booklet. In addition to these Conditions of Use, the use of your card is also subject to the conditions which apply to your account. Contactless transactions If your card has contactless technology you may use your card to make Contactless transactions in New Zealand and overseas as a Contactless terminal. You will be able to find a Contactless terminal at any merchant that displays your card symbol and the relevant contactless symbol. 16 You may be required to enter your PIN or sign to use your card for Contactless transactions over certain limits. For New Zealand, the transaction limits can be found at www.westpac.co.nz. Different limits apply overseas and we have no control over these limits. Card acceptance & limitations In New Zealand, your card will be accepted in any electronic funds device or by any merchant displaying the Visa symbol. Overseas, the card will be accepted by banks and merchants displaying the Visa symbol and at any electronic funds device displaying the Visa or Visa PLUS symbol. However, we will not be held liable if any bank or merchant either refuses to accept the card or will not allow the card to be used to purchase particular types of goods and services available at the premises. We will not be responsible for the goods and services supplied by any merchant. Any complaints you have with the merchant must be resolved by you. The use of your card for foreign currency transactions may be subject to exchange controls or other government requirements. Visa processes and converts into New Zealand Dollars, cash advances, purchases and/or charges made in foreign currencies at the rate(s) of exchange fixed by Visa. Transactions made in United States and Australian Dollars are converted directly into New Zealand Dollars. Visa converts transactions made in any other foreign currency into United States Dollars before converting them into New Zealand Dollars. A foreign currency fee will be charged by the bank on any such foreign currency transaction. Details of this fee are available in our Transaction and Service Fees brochure which forms part of these Conditions of Use. Damaged or faulty cards In the event that your card becomes damaged or faulty, we will issue you with a new card when you return the damaged/faulty card to us, together with a description of how the damage or fault occurred. There may be a charge to your account for this replacement card. Westpac Debitplus Visa 17 Charges Charges that may be incurred and charged to your account are subject to change, and details of these charges are available in our Transaction and Service Fees brochure, which forms part of these Conditions of Use. Charges include • annual card charges • replacement card charges • urgent replacement card charges • courier/freight charges for replacement cards • voucher search charges • transaction charges • Government duties or taxes • using another banks ATM charges • foreign currency fees. For full details, see our Transaction and Service Fees brochure which forms part of these Conditions of Use, call us on 0800 888 111 or ask at your nearest branch. Terms & Conditions set by third parties In addition to these Conditions of Use, the use of your card in an EFT terminal is subject to the conditions imposed from time to time by other financial institutions that are parties to any EFT system. Card cancellation or change Westpac may cancel your card at any time without prior notice. We may also change your card to another scheme or branded card at any time and, where we consider it necessary or appropriate, cancel the card your new card replaces. If you are notified that your card has been cancelled, you are required to cut your card in half and return it to any branch. You may cancel your card by notifying us in writing, cutting the card in half and returning it to any branch. Transaction disputes You are responsible for checking your statements to ensure their accuracy and advising us of any mistakes, even if you are not at the address to which you have requested us to send statements. If you do not notify us of a disputed transaction within the time period stated below then the charge or record of the transaction will remain on your account. 18 If you dispute any transaction recorded in your monthly statement, you must notify us in writing within 30 days of the statement period closing date, giving the following information: • your name and card number, • the amount and nature of the disputed transaction, attaching (if available) a copy of the transaction record or sales voucher in support of your case, • details of the EFT terminal (if any) at which the disputed transaction occurred, • details of the website (if any) through which the disputed transaction was initiated, • the date and approximate time (if known) on which the disputed transaction occurred, • details of any formal complaint lodged with the Police. Once you have notified us of the disputed transaction we will investigate the matter and acknowledge your complaint within five days. Failure to report the incorrect, invalid or unauthorised transaction within 30 days will mean we cannot reverse the transaction and you will have to pay for it. Where it is established that an error did occur (whether it was the disputed transaction complained of, or not) it will be corrected, and you will be advised of any appropriate adjustments which will be made to your account in respect of credit charges and other charges. If, as a result of our investigation, we believe the charge or transaction should remain, we will write to you setting out our reasons and service charge. If you have followed Westpac’s internal complaints procedure and you are still not satisfied with the outcome of the investigation, you may refer the matter to the Banking Ombudsman. In respect of disputes between merchants and cardholders, refer to the ‘Card transaction requirements’ section. Variation of Conditions of Use We reserve the right to vary these Conditions of Use at any time. Notice of any such changes to these Conditions of Use will be given at least 14 days in advance in accordance with the Code of Banking Practice.
