How do I set up and manage an automatic payment?

You can set up, change, pause, skip, or stop automatic payments easily in Westpac One® digital banking.  

• Automatic payments are usually processed 365 days a year at 7.30am each day.
• If there’s not enough money in the account you’re paying from, we’ll try the payment again at 10pm that night and 7.30am the next day.
• You can’t set up or change automatic payments between 7.30am to 8am and 10pm to 10.30pm as this is when the payments are made.

We may also ask some questions when you make certain payments. These are designed to help you pause and think before confirming the payment. If a payment raises concerns, we may prevent the money from leaving your account and guide you through next steps. Read more.
