Be the first to know what’s going on

There’s a range of Easy Alerts to suit your mobile banking needs.

Know when you’ve been paid

Forget constantly checking your account to see if you’ve been paid – be alerted as soon as a payment hits your account.

Keep up with your loan and credit card repayments

Worry less about making a late payment – get a reminder on your home loan, personal loan or credit card repayment before it’s due.

Know if your cash is running low

Rest easy, knowing you’ll be notified if your account has dropped below a set amount.

It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3...

To get the full benefits, you can set up alerts at any time in a few quick steps:

1. More

​Tap on ‘More’ from the bottom menu, then ‘Notifications’ > ‘Settings’.

2. Toggle

Toggle on ‘Allow Easy Alerts’, then customise the notifications you want to receive.

Frequently asked questions​

Managing your devices

It’s just a few quick steps in the Bankwest App. Once you’ve logged in to the app, tap on ‘More’ from the bottom menu, then ‘Notifications’ > ‘Settings’. Then you can customise the Easy Alerts you want to receive.

You can receive Bankwest Easy Alerts on up to five devices. All you need to do is install the app on each device and accept the permissions when you first log in. The device will then be registered to your PAN, so we can ensure that only your devices receive your alerts.

A device can only be registered to receive alerts for one unique PAN at a time. Secondary PANs/users require separate unique registered devices.

You’ll need to log in to online banking via your desktop or tablet and select ‘manage devices’ from the ‘self service’ menu. Then simply click ‘deregister’ next to the device you’d like to stop receiving alerts on.​

You can turn alerts on again at any time by switching them on in the app.​
