ANZ To Introduce Password-less Web Banking For ANZ Plus
ANZ has announced it will introduce Password-less Web Banking for its digital banking platform ANZ Plus, making it the first Australian bank to offer a fully password-less web banking option.
Launching with ANZ Plus Web Banking in mid-2025, the feature will allow customers to log into ANZ Plus Web Banking without a password. By replacing passwords with stronger authentication methods, ANZ is providing greater security and enhanced protection for accounts, and simplifying the banking experience for customers.
Customers will instead be able to access their ANZ Plus Web Banking through two authentication methods: either by using a passkey, which could be their fingerprint, face or mobile device PIN, or by entering their mobile number and approving a log in request sent to their secure ANZ Plus app.
ANZ Group Executive Australia Retail, Maile Carnegie said: “The introduction of Password-less Web Banking will revolutionise the way customers access their bank account. Not only will it be easier than ever to log into your account, we’re helping our customers bank with confidence knowing their accounts are secure.
“By introducing this change, we’re helping prevent customer log in details from the risk of data breaches or phishing attacks – providing an extra layer of protection and one less thing for customers to worry about when it comes to banking security.”
The launch of Password-less Web Banking is one of many innovative security features ANZ has invested in to help protect customers against the risk of fraud and scams, including:
As the first password-less web banking feature in Australia, ANZ Plus Password-less Web Banking will help prevent customer log in details against data breaches, password leaks and phishing attacks. With the launch, ANZ is reminding customers:
