PayID and NPP Are Modernizing Australia's Real-Time Payments

Australia's payment ecosystem combines strong card adoption with a rapidly expanding real-time payment infrastructure. While cards continue to dominate both online and in-store commerce, PayID and the New Payments Platform (NPP) are making instant account-to-account payments faster and easier for consumers and businesses.

PayID allows users to send and receive payments using simple identifiers such as a mobile number or email address instead of bank account details. Together with NPP, it supports Australia's shift toward faster, more connected digital payments alongside wallets such as Apple Pay and Google Pay.
