Online payments your customers can trust

POLi lets your customers pay directly and securely using their online banking account.

Merco Ltd. acquires POLi from Australia Post

You may have heard that Australia Post is closing POLi in Australia. In response to this news, Merco Ltd. (Master Distributor of POLi in NZ) is acquiring local ownership of the system to continue operations here in New Zealand. We will be retaining POLi's experienced development team ensuring there is no disruption to service.

This is a very exciting time for us as we can now dedicate 100% of POLi's resources to New Zealanders. We're also set to introduce new services to the country in the near future, making it excellent timing for the 1.6 million Kiwis who have used POLi recently.

Australia Post will shut down POLi in Australia on 30 September, 2023, at which point Merco will take control of the service. The service will continue uninterrupted and these changes will not affect POLi merchants or customers in New Zealand.

Customers want choice online - let’s give it to them

Not every Kiwi wants to pay online using a credit or debit card, or accrue debt with a Buy Now/Pay Later service. As many as a third also enjoy direct online payment options¹, which is where POLi comes in.

Shine On

The beauty of POLi is that it is a smooth and seamless process. I just pay the bill at the end of the month and it basically takes care of itself.

That’s the beauty of having POLi. It automatically pre-populates both the correct amount and the other payment details into the internet banking screen without customers having to type in anything.
