How do I log in to ANZ Internet Banking?
What you need to log in
- Customer Registration Number (CRN) – 8‑digit number found in your ANZ App profile (ANZ Support)
- Internet Banking password – 8–16 characters, case‑sensitive, letters and numbers (ANZ Logon Help)
- Security device or SMS OTP – for two‑factor authentication (ANZ Security Device FAQ)
What is my ANZ customer registration number?
Your Customer Registration Number (CRN) is an 8‑digit identifier. You can find it in the ANZ App under Profile. If you no longer have the app, call ANZ on 13 33 50 (ANZ Register for Online Banking).
Step‑by‑step login process
- Go to login.anz.com/internetbanking – the only official gateway (ANZ Support).
- Enter your CRN and password.
- If prompted, enter the code from your security device or the SMS OTP sent to your mobile.
- If you’re using a new browser or device, you may need to complete a verification step.
- Once authenticated, you’ll land on your dashboard.
The implication: Starting at the right URL eliminates the biggest phishing risk. Bookmark login.anz.com and never type “ANZ login” into a search bar.
ANZ will never ask for your password or PIN via email, phone, or text. Any request that does is a scam. The official login page is the only place you should ever enter your credentials (ANZ Internet Banking Security).
The safeguard: official channels only.
How do I register for ANZ Internet Banking?
Eligibility for registration
- You must hold an eligible ANZ account (transaction, savings, credit card, or loan).
- You need your Customer Registration Number (CRN) and a Telecode – both are mailed to you when you open an account (ANZ Register for Online Banking).
- Registration is free of charge.
Steps to register online
- Download the ANZ App from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store (tier‑2 sources).
- Open the app and select “Register for Internet Banking”.
- Enter your CRN and Telecode.
- Set a strong Internet Banking password (8–16 characters, mix of letters and numbers).
- Choose a security question or set up biometric login.
What this means: The app acts as the registration gateway. Once registered there, you can log in on any device using the same credentials.
What is the difference between ANZ Plus login and standard Internet Banking?
ANZ Plus features
- Digital‑only banking with a dedicated app (ANZ Plus)
- Real‑time spending insights and savings goals
- Separate login credentials – your ANZ Plus username and password are not the same as your Internet Banking CRN/password
- No physical security device; authentication uses biometrics and SMS OTP
ANZ Internet Banking features
- Full account management, bill payment, and transfers
- Uses CRN + password + security device or SMS OTP
- Available via browser (login.anz.com) or the ANZ App
- Covers all standard accounts (transaction, savings, credit cards, loans)
Separate login credentials
The key distinction: if you are an ANZ Plus customer, you must use the ANZ Plus app to log in to that product. Your standard Internet Banking CRN will not work for ANZ Plus, and vice versa.
The trade‑off: ANZ Plus offers a sleeker interface but adds one more set of login details to manage. For users with both services, switching between apps is the only option.
How do I troubleshoot ANZ login issues?
Forgotten customer registration number
- Open the ANZ App and go to Profile (top‑right) to see your CRN (ANZ Support).
- If you no longer have the app, call ANZ on 13 33 50 (24/7) (ANZ Security Device FAQ).
Forgotten password
- Click “Forgot login details” on the Internet Banking login page (ANZ Support).
- You’ll need your CRN, debit/credit card number, card PIN, and the SMS code sent to your registered mobile (ANZ Support – Login Details).
- Once verified, set a new password (8–16 characters, case‑sensitive).
Account locked
- If you enter the wrong security device code three times, the device is disabled. Call 13 33 50 to reactivate (ANZ Security Device FAQ).
- Falcon security may also block your account if it detects unusual activity – in that case, contact ANZ support (ANZ Support – Login Details).
Browser and device issues
- Clear your browser cache and cookies, then try again.
- Use a supported browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge).
- Make sure your ANZ App is updated to the latest version.
The pattern: Most login problems come down to a forgotten CRN, a locked security device, or an outdated browser. A quick call to 13 33 50 resolves the first two instantly.
Step‑by‑Step ANZ Internet Banking Login Guide
- Go to login.anz.com/internetbanking or open the ANZ App.
- Enter your 8‑digit Customer Registration Number (ANZ Support).
- Enter your Internet Banking password (8–16 characters, case‑sensitive).
- Complete two‑factor authentication using your security device code or SMS OTP.
- If your device is new, you may need to verify your identity via app notification or answer a security question.
- Once logged in, consider enabling ANZ Shield multi‑factor authentication for extra security (ANZ Internet Banking Security).
Each login attempt uses a fresh security code. If you enter the wrong code three times, the device locks – and you’ll need to call ANZ to unlock it. Keep your device away from metal surfaces and magnets to avoid accidental reset (ANZ Security Device FAQ).
Contact ANZ if this happens.
