Why do I need to set up bank details?

You only need to set up bank details if you intend to transfer funds to your bank account. You can also fund and make withdrawals from your account via PayPal and bank transfers. Once your bank details have been verified, your bank account will be registered and visible as a withdrawal destination on your payments menu. As we are not permitted to make any third-party payments to clients, we may ask that you provide us with some form of documentation to ensure ownership of the bank account you wish to register matches the records held on our database.

Why is my destination limit $0 when attempting to withdraw to my card?

If you haven’t sent funds back to a registered debit or credit card in a period of 12 months or more, or if your card has expired, we will no longer be able to use the card as a withdrawal destination. Please note that you may only withdraw up to the total amount deposited from that particular credit card. For example, if you deposit $10,000, and make $20,000 then you will only be able to withdraw the initial $10,000 back to your registered card. If you need any assistance withdrawing funds from your account, please contact us.

How can I withdraw funds from my account?

You can withdraw funds from your account online by clicking on the 'Payments' icon and then selecting the 'Withdrawals' tab. Alternatively, you can use chat (Live help) or call our Client Management team for assistance. Please be aware that for your protection, we may request additional information and/or proof of identity before processing the withdrawal request. We do not transfer funds to a third-party account so please ensure that the bank account is in your name. Note: if your bank details are on file we will process your request the same day as long as your request is before the cut-off time of 2pm Sydney time.

You can additionally withdraw back to your registered credit/debit card up to the amount you have initially deposited using that card. For example, if you deposit $10,000, and make $20, 000 then you will only be able to withdraw the initial $10,000 back to your registered card. Withdrawals can also be made via PayPal.
