Head to the Westpac foreign currency cash website. Enter the amount you need. Choose how you would like to pay for it (either Bpay or card).

There is a minimum order size of $500 and a maximum limit of $10000. You can pick the order up from your local branch in 2-3 business days, but you need to bring some I.D.

Westpac charge a fee of $4 to order currency to be picked up at a branch. If you want to pay for your currency using a credit or debt card, there are card processing fees.

Please note, Westpac do not give you the wholesale exchange rate you see on Google or XE.com. While a worse rate is not a commission or a fee, it still adds to your cost of purchasing currency.
