With the rise of sophisticated scams and AI-driven fraud, Lismore City Council has partnered with Eftsure to enhance payment security and fraud prevention. Eftsure, a Software as a Service (SaaS) platform, ensures secure supplier onboarding and verification by validating ABN, business name, GST registration, and bank account details. This safeguards payments, ensuring funds reach the correct recipients.
In early 2025, existing and new suppliers will receive an onboarding email from Council requesting confirmation of organisation details on the Eftsure portal. You may validate your account via the secure Eftsure bank link or opt to verify by phone call from the Eftsure team. This process replaces Council’s existing Creditor Application process.
