What information should I share when I want to ensure an exact match with Confirmation of Payee?

You should provide the account name, BSB and account number exactly as recorded by your bank to ensure that any payment being made to you is processed efficiently.

This includes using the correct spelling and any middle names that form part of your account name. If you’re uncertain, it’s best to check these details with your bank(s). 

This is also relevant for businesses whose account name may differ from their trading name, such as when a specific part of the business operates under a different name.
