You can pay for AEC penalty notices using any of the following methods:
You can pay AEC penalty notices online via credit/debit card.
The AEC online payment form uses the Government EasyPay Online service provided by the Reserve Bank of Australia via their payment gateway service provider, ANZ Worldline Payment Solutions.
When you pay using any of our card payment services, we'll give you a receipt number. The payment details will be displayed on your card statement as ‘AEC NVF Penalty’.
The service may sometimes be unavailable due to technical issues or maintenance. If you need to make a payment during these periods, you should use an alternative payment method.
The payment gateway service provider (ANZ Worldline Payment Solutions via the Government EasyPay Online Service) may request personal information about a credit or debit card holder to verify and/or process a transaction submitted by the AEC, to send you information about a transaction (for example, a receipt) and for providing the AEC or other parties in the payments system with information or reporting on transactions.
