Same great information and features, from borrowing calculators and interest rates to stay safe resources and application forms.
Registering for Internet Banking only takes a few minutes. Once you’re registered, you can use our Mobile app, Mobile Banking or Phone Banking as well.
Features include:
The use of Internet Banking is a free service to Orange Credit Union members.
You will need to register for internet banking before you can start using it. To register, please click the Internet Banking button on the Home page of our website and follow the prompts to Register. Once you register, we'll be in touch during business hours to assign your first password to login.
You will be required to read and accept Orange Credit Union’s Terms and Conditions of use for Internet Banking.
When logging in for the first time, you may be automatically prompted to choose a new password. Remember not to choose a password that is the same as your member number, or that is sequential letters or numbers. To maintain security, your chosen password must comply with the below:
We have placed the utmost importance in ensuring that your personal details, funds and account information remain secure from unauthorised access. Internet Banking has various security features that protect both you and us. These include:
Internet Banking employs 128 bit encryption of data sent to and from the site to ensure that no information can be intercepted and read by others (encryption scrambles the data that is sent on the line to stop people who may try to tap or hack into Internet communications).
We take the online security of your money very seriously. That’s why we use the latest systems and technology to ensure your savings are safe with us.
We combine 128-bit encryption and sophisticated firewalls with 2-tier authentication to offer the highest online protection for your money and information. This enhanced security system might seem like a hassle at first, but it’s really simple to set up and use!
Simple login (tier 1 authentication)
Tier 1 allows you to access simple services like account balances and transaction history. It’s what you’re probably already used to – logging in with your member number and password.
One Time Password (tier 2 authentication)
Tier 2 is needed to protect your money when it moves or you update your details. It ensures that it is really you making the changes or moving money. For this, you need to add an extra security level of a One Time Password. With One Time Password, a secure code is sent to your mobile phone via text.
Our current internet banking daily limit is $4,000 with One Time Password. Should you require a temporary or permanent change of a higher daily limit or to have some of your accounts on Internet Banking as "view only" please contact us.
We recommend you use the most up-to-date version of your preferred browser. These include: Internet Explorer version 11 or higher, Firefox version 2 or higher and Safari version 3 or higher.
Yes, you can use internet banking for two-to-sign accounts. Use your Member number and password to log in. Conduct the transaction as normal. The transaction will be stored and await approval from the other authorised party before it is activated. It will appear as a Pending Transaction at the bottom of the Transactions menu.
Yes. If you feel that your password may be known by someone else or you are not happy with it, you may change your password at any time. As part of our ongoing security, we will also require you to change your password every 180 days. To change your password, simply click on the Forgot My Password link on the login screen for Internet Banking. To change your password online, you will need One Time Password SMS Text.
If you forget your password, simply click on the Forgot My Password link on the Internet Banking login screen. You will need a One Time Password to change your password online or contact our office during business hours.
If the password you selected does not work, it may be because it does not meet the criteria for a secure password. Remember not to choose a password that is the same as your member number, or that is sequential letters or numbers. To maintain security, your chosen password must comply with the below:
If your Internet Banking is locked you will need to reset your password. You can reset your password on the login screen using Forgot My Password (you will need a One Time Password) or contact us during office hours.
Orange Credit Union uses Osko for external transfers. If you are transferring funds to another institution who uses Osko, then the transfer is usually immediate. If not, then the transfer could take up to 48 hours depending on the receiving institution.
You can transfer funds within your own membership and you can now also transfer funds to other memberships within Orange Credit Union. You will need to know the membership number and Savings or Loan type you want to transfer funds to.
For example to transfer to the S6 of member number 12345, you would need to enter "12345S6". To process an internal transfer you will need to select the Transaction Menu then select the Transfer option from the drop down list.
Yes. You can make payments to payees at other financial institutions. The details you need to provide to make a payment are BSB, account number, account name, reference and the amount to be paid.
Please ensure that the details you provide are correct to avoid the payment being delayed or returned to Orange Credit Union.
To process an External transfer you will need to select the Transact Menu then select the Credit External option from the drop down list. You will then be asked to enter the details of the payment.
Please be aware, unless you are registered for One Time Password, you will not be able to transfer more than $500 per day outside of Orange Credit Union.
To deposit funds or direct debit from your account it is best to give your Alternate Reference (or External Account) Number. Your ARN is a 9-digit number that is easily understood by banking systems outside of Orange Credit Union.
Each of your accounts will have a separate ARN.
Please find the ARN for each of your accounts on Internet Banking under Services & Help / BSB Information.
When making external payments, the BSB number must be in the correct format. The BSB should read nnnnnn. The BSB for Orange Credit Union is 802129.

You can enter a description for the payment to refer to in the list of saved billers.
You can also select Schedule Payment on this screen to set up a recurring BPAY transfer, in much the same way as you would for a normal electronic funds transfer.
Yes. Under the "Accounts" menu select Online Statements where you can download PDF statements to view or print.

If using Microsoft Internet Explorer:
Please review other methods to allow pop-ups based on your operating system (eg Chrome, Safari, Firefox etc). Please also note that Windows Edge may cause issues with external payments on Internet Banking - if that is the case, please use Chrome or Internet Explorer to access Internet Banking.
A: The most likely reason is that you have typed your Member Number incorrectly. Another reason could be that your browser's Internet Options or Preferences settings do not allow acceptance of cookies.
A: There may not be a problem. When you enter your details the screen clears momentarily for privacy and security reasons. The Internet Banking system should appear within 10 seconds. Alternatively, if the screen seems to freeze then your browser might not have the high level of security encryption required to access online banking.
A: This may be because your display settings are set to a resolution of less than 1024 x 768. You can check these via the "Control Panel" display settings if you are using a Microsoft Windows operating system. This may also occur because you have added a toolbar to the window display.
A: Your PC could be running out of assigned memory. Close down some other applications you have open, to free up memory. Your display settings may not be correct for your monitor, or you may not be using the correct driver for your monitor.
A: A transaction list is a list of all your transactions over a period of time that you select. It is similar to a statement. (Note: This transaction list does not constitute the statement the Credit Union is required to issue to you in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable to your membership.)

A: This can happen if you did not click the 'Confirm' button on the BPAY - Confirmation screen. Cleared funds must be available in your nominated account for the payment to be made. If you have scheduled a payment to be made in the future, you must ensure that there are sufficient funds in your account to cover the payment on the day the payment is due.

We advise you to wait a couple of minutes until the system is available, or to close down your browser, wait a moment and try again. If problems persist please contact us.
A: These browsers display their version in a box as they load on your PC. Alternatively click on Help in the menu bar of the browser and then click on About. The version number and level of encryption security (Cipher Strength) will then be displayed. If it is 40-bit or 56-bit, you will need to upgrade your browser.
Microsoft Internet Explorer users can do this through Microsoft's Download Centre web page. Please note this will take some time as the browser program and add-ons can be quite large. We encourage you to regularly check for browser (and operating system) updates to keep up with security improvements. Refer to Microsoft's Windows Update web page for more information.
