Think of POLi as a gateway between the shop and your bank - and the great thing is POLi won't even look; it doesn't capture or disclose any of your private details to anyone.
The first time you choose to pay with POLi you need to download and install the POLi web browser on your computer. This is completely safe to do - POLi uses some of the most advanced security features available on the internet. It's trusted by VeriSign and used by Air New Zealand, JetStar, the NZ Transport Agency and others.
There’s no cost to pay with POLi (although normal bank fees may apply) and best of all, it’s really easy to use
FAQs
What is POLi?
POLi is the online payment option which allows you to use your internet banking facility to safely pay for goods and services purchased online.
In simple terms, POLi helps you to make an internet banking payment to The Warehouse in a secure way, and ensures that you get all the payment details right. It does not capture, store or disclose any of your sensitive details (including account numbers and internet banking logon or passwords).
Why choose POLi?
POLi is a great alternative for people without credit cards, or for those who have them - but would prefer not to use them to shop online.

Is POLi secure?
During a POLi transaction, no one can access or see any of the details displayed by your Internet banking site (eg account numbers and internet banking logon or passwords). This information remains secure within your bank’s environment. It is important to remember that when using POLi, you only ever exchange sensitive information directly with your bank. In this sense, POLi is unlike other online payment methods, such as online credit card transactions where your information is passed via a series of third parties.
The POLi web browser (the gateway used to navigate to your internet banking facility), provides some of the most advanced security features available on the internet.
What are the system requirements for POLi?
When you make a POLi payment the POLi web browser loads automatically. You can also load the POLi browser before you make a POLi payment by visiting www.getpoli.co.nz. You only need to do this once.
In order to run the POLi web browser, your computer must meet minimum system requirements.

* Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 or above
* Compatible Browsers: Internet Explorer 6.0+, Firefox 2+ (Javascript must be enabled)
