Client Centre Portal - A Safe and Simple Way to Submit Confidential Documents

One of the irritations of a home loan application is preparing and sending all the supporting documentation that the lender requests. Payslips, drivers’ licences, bank account statements all contain highly confidential information, so it’s important that we continue to ensure your data is safe.

Rather than sending multiple emails, which if you mistype the email address, could be sent to the wrong person, we’ve implemented a file collection portal to ensure your files come directly to us.

Our Client Centre Portal provides a safe and simple means of submitting personal information and supporting documents. Using multi-factor authentication, each applicant is assigned a personal link for added security. You no longer need to send multiple emails with attachments, as the portal is a secure communication channel for sharing sensitive information.

Client Centre Portal Overview

Benefits of using the Client Centre Portal

  • Your data is secure using the same encryption technology as the banks

  • Access to the portal is protected by two-factor authentication

  • Data sent through this portal is more secure than emailing the files directly

  • You can see the full list of required documents and what items are still outstanding

  • You don’t have to upload everything at once and can return to the portal and upload at anytime

  • Upload files directly from your computer’s hard drive

  • You don’t need to remember a password, your link is customised to you

  • You don’t need to send loads of emails with multiple attachments and risk those emails going to the wrong person

  • If you only have hard copy files, you still have the option to post them to us.


How to access

We will send you an email with a personalised link for you to access the Client Centre Portal. Once you click on it, a SMS will be sent to your mobile number with a code for you to input. Once you have entered the code, you will be able to access the portal.

Each applicant will be sent a separate link.

We set a deadline for the link to expire within 7 days, but we can extend that deadline if you need more time.
