Frequently asked questions

No, but linking to NetBank will mean they can self-service their Corporate card.

By encouraging cardholders to use self-service:

  • They can perform their own card activation quickly
  • They have real-time control over their card, including the ability to lock their card temporarily
  • They can easily change their PIN in the app, eliminating wait time by post or the need to visit a branch
  • The risk of card fraud is decreased because of the real-time view of pending and completed transactions

Cardholders who don't want to link their Corporate card to a CommBank profile (new or existing) can continue managing their card via our client service teams. 

No, cardholders won't be able to change their credit limit or access any account information belonging to the business. They'll only be able to take the following actions for their linked Corporate card:

  • Activate their card and set their PIN
  • Temporarily lock their card
  • Reset their PIN if they forget it
  • Report their card as lost, stolen or damaged
  • View their transactions
  • Download their statements in NetBank

To manage their card in NetBank, a cardholder needs to have their card linked to a NetBank ID. If your cardholder prefers not to have a NetBank ID, they can continue to get help as they normally do.

No, linking a corporate card to NetBank will not impact the cardholder's net position or their capacity to apply for other products.

Even when existing cardholders have been sufficiently verified to be issued a Corporate card, CommBank requires additional ID verification to take place via our digital platform. This is so we can set up a NetBank profile and subsequently link the Corporate card. Verification is an important part of our security measures to protect customer information.

Cardholders that have an existing NetBank login can simply log on to NetBank when the option is provided while linking a Corporate card.

For cardholders that don't have a NetBank ID, we'll ask them for their:

  • Full name (including any middle names)
  • Date of birth
  • Residency information, including recent addresses
  • Occupation
  • Tax residency information, including their country of residence for tax purposes

For verification, they’ll need to have two valid identification documents handy, such as a driver licence or passport.

If a cardholder has already linked their Corporate card to NetBank and needs to update their name, they’ll need to visit a CommBank branch.
