DSB Domain and certificate changes The consumerdatastandards.gov.au and cds.gov.au domains and their associated certificates are being retired on 1 January 2027. Organisations should review any references to these domains and update bookmarks, systems, integrations and documentation before this date to avoid potential disruption. The domains currently redirect to dsb.gov.au and will continue to do so until their retirement. All references should be updated to dsb.gov.au prior to 1 January 2027. |

| Question on Notice 1 (17/09/26) | Non-Bank Lenders |
Instalment plans How should the standards be interpreted for instalment plan products offered by non-bank lenders where the product is not a Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) account? Existing standards references discuss instalment plans in the BNPL context, but the language does not explicitly limit the requirements to BNPL products, creating uncertainty about how other instalment-based lending products should be treated. |
Since the previous call, the DSB has met with the requester to discuss the issue in more detail. The DSB is working with the ACCC on guidance to clarify the treatment of instalment plan products, which is intended to be published as a Support Portal article. Further updates will be provided once the guidance is available. |

Clarification on Deep-Link Registration, DCR Implications, and ADR/Data Holder Responsibilities for A2A Authentication
|
1. ADR Deep-Link Registration and DCR Expectations 1.1 Should ADR deep-link information be registered with Data Holders through the existing DCR process? For Redirect to App, the ADR app destination is managed as a registered redirect_uri, rather than as a separate deep-link registration artefact. Where an ADR supports both native app and web-based redirection, separate redirect URIs are required. The redirect URI used for the native app must support the claimed HTTPS URI mechanism. This continues to use the existing registration and DCR framework. 1.2 Does introducing or changing an ADR app Redirect URI require a new DCR registration record? Redirect to App does not introduce a separate DCR process. Changes to registered redirect URIs should be managed through the existing registration processes. A separate R2A-specific registration is not required solely because an app Redirect URI is introduced or changed. 1.3 How should ADR app redirect information be managed within the existing DCR model? ADR app redirect information should continue to be managed through the existing Redirect URI registration model. For a native app R2A journey, the applicable redirect_uri uses the claimed HTTPS URI mechanism to return the consumer to the ADR app. 2. Data Holder Deep-Link Behaviour and ADR Interaction 2.1 Does the ADR need to know, store, register or validate the Data Holder's deep link? The ADR does not need to separately register or maintain a Data Holder app deep link. The ADR continues to use the Data Holder's authorisation endpoint. The claimed HTTPS URI mechanism enables the Data Holder's native app to handle the authorisation request where the app is installed. Where the Data Holder app is not installed, the journey can continue through the applicable web authentication flow. 2.2 Does the Data Holder need to register its app deep-link URI with the ACCC Register? There is no additional requirement identified for a Data Holder to register a separate app deep-link URI with the ACCC Register for Redirect to App. The ADR continues to use the Data Holder's authorisation endpoint, while the association between the claimed HTTPS URI and the Data Holder's native app is managed as part of the Data Holder's implementation. |

Once-Off Authorisation Metrics – sharing_duration Threshold For consents that are exactly for 24 hours - Are they considered Once off or Ongoing? |
The CDR Data Standards specify that where the sharing_duration value is less than or equal to 24 hours, one-time collection is assumed. Accordingly, a sharing_duration value of exactly 24 hours (86,400 seconds) should be treated as one-time collection. |
| 2772 | Banking (Data Holder) |
Comparison Rates for DISCOUNT rate entries Could clarification be provided on whether we need to supply a comparison rate on lending rate entries of type DISCOUNT? DISCOUNT rates are documented in the standard as being applied to base rates. They are not standalone rates by themselves. Also, if multiple discounts are available it is possible to have multiple DISCOUNT rates reducing the base rate for the final effective rate. In this scenario it is not actually possible to calculate a comparison rate for these discounts because different combinations will produce different comparison rate. It is our understanding that the DISCOUNT rate entry (like PENALTY and INTRODUCTORY) was intended to advertise available variations to base rates under certain conditions and were not intended to be specific rates in their own right and, as such, were not intended to have comparison a rate. This interpretation is based on the statement that accompanies the definition of lendingType = DISCOUNT in the standards. |
The DISCOUNT rate is a lending adjustment rate type. Lending adjustment rates are intended to communicate a value that’s added to or subtracted from a base rate. Therefore, a DISCOUNT rate is intended to communicate the size of the discount, not the rate that results from applying the discount. For similar reasons, it’d usually be meaningless to include a comparison rate in a BankingProductLendingRateV3 object whose lendingRateType value is one of the lending adjustment rate types. If a comparison rate has been calculated by applying a discount, then the comparison rate should be disclosed in the same object containing the base rate to which the discount applies. It's the data holder’s responsibility to determine whether and how any discount affects a comparison rate. As you suggested, it’s sensible to represent a discounted rate without necessarily using a DISCOUNT rate. |

How to represent a risk fee Can you provide some guidance on the best way to show risk fees, where the risk fee is x% of the loan amount and where x is determined by the LVR on the application? |
In this situation, the recommended approach is to return an array of rate-based fees, each with appropriate LVR information in the additionalInfo field. This approach helps to communicate the relationship between the rates and LVR bands. |
Attendees are invited to raise topics related to the Consumer Data Right that would benefit from the DSB and ACCCs' consideration.
