Important
We've recently made changes to AUD deposits.
From September 25, 2023 Blueshyft deposits have been discontinued.
From June 27, 2022, BPAY and PayID deposits via reference number have been discontinued. Deposits made using these methods will no longer be accepted and you'll need to use one of the deposit methods listed below going forward.
PayID (AUD)

- No deposit fee
- Not all Australian banks support PayID
- Not held in the reserved balance
- Arrives within minutes
Note: The first PayID deposit you make to CoinJar may take up to 24 hours to arrive while your bank performs security checks.
With PayID, you can deposit funds to your CoinJar in minutes using a unique email address assigned to your account. You can make these deposits outside of business hours without delay.
How to make a PayID deposit

- Confirm the payment.
Important information
- Deposits made from a bank account that's not registered in your legal name will be rejected and returned.

Bank transfer (AUD)
At a glance
- No deposit fee
- Not held in the reserved balance
- May be instant, or may take up to three business days to arrive
With bank transfers, you can send funds to your CoinJar using the unique BSB and account number assigned to your account. Because your CoinJar's BSB and account number will never change, you can schedule transfers for convenience.
How to make a bank transfer
- Tap or click on the Deposit button on the home screen, select Bank transfer, and take note of the BSB and your account number.
- Open your bank's app or website, and follow the prompts to make a new payment. This process will be different for every bank.
- Enter the desired deposit amount.
- Enter your CoinJar's unique BSB and account number.
- Confirm the payment.
Important information
- Bank transfers may arrive instantly, but can take up to three business days to arrive. The speed of your bank transfer deposit will depend on your bank and its support for Osko. If your bank doesn't support Osko or you have exceeded your bank's Osko limit, your bank transfer may be sent via a slower method. Transfers via this slower method can take up to three business days to arrive.
- CoinJar has no control over how your bank processes bank transfers.
- There is no minimum deposit amount. The maximum amount depends on your CoinJar's account limits and any transfer limits set by your bank.
- You must only use the BSB and account number issued to you for deposits to your CoinJar account. Deposits made from a bank account not registered in your legal name will be rejected and returned.
