Key features

The BankSA Incentive Saver Account really lives up to its name, with an introductory interest rate of up to 5.25% p.a for the first three months (on balances under $250,000), if you meet the bonus criteria. After the first three months, the interest rate on the Incentive Saver Account drops down to 5.15% p.a. 

This savings account usually has a base rate of 1.85% p.a., but includes a bonus rate of 3.30% p.a. for balances up to $250,000 if you grow your balance by at least $50 per month (unless you're under the age of 21, in which case you'll simply need to increase it by $0.01). The extra 0.10% p.a. is an additional bonus rate offered for the first three months for new customers who open their account online. 

When it comes to accessing your money, you’ll be able to make withdrawals at St George, Westpac, BankSA and Bank of Melbourne ATMs. Phone and internet transactions are free, as are EFTPOS and over the counter withdrawals.
