Open a bank account
New to Westpac?
You can open either an Everyday account with a debit card or a Simple Saver account online in minutes. You can also PIN your debit card online so it will be ready to use once you get it - no need to come into a branch!
To apply using Westpac EasyID, all we need is a video selfie and a NZ driver licence or NZ passport. Otherwise, if you have a RealMe verified identity you can apply with RealMe.
Note: You may need to come into branch if further information is required.
If you don't have any of these forms of identification, you'd like to open a different account or would prefer to apply in branch, please call 0800 400 600 to make an appointment at your local branch, and we'll help you open your account in person.
