        Be aware that the security checks can be quite complicated. Also the accent of the customer service, while is european, can be difficult to understand. Not all requests can be completed over the phone or internet and some paperwork will be required. The rates are great. The online calculators, motivators, articles, etc are GREAT. The graphs which chart your money growth is fantastic. Overall, it's not 10 out of 10, but it's at least a 7 for the product simplicity and great rates. No excessive complicated fine print, etc...

    Term deposit information

    • Term deposits might not be the sexiest investment, but they do offer a safe haven in choppy financial seas. In these days of economic uncertainty, term deposits are gaining popularity as a safe place to park spare cash and fix against future interest rate falls.

      Finding the best term deposits rates on the market can be a time consuming exercise, but Mozo can help you compare term deposits in Australia with ease. Our database has all the best Australian term deposit rates and covers all the main financial institutions, including ING term deposits, BankWest term deposits, RaboDirect term deposits and more.

      You can also get the inside story on the best deals from those in the know with term deposit reviews by the Mozo community.

      More information on bank term deposits.

    • Term deposit comparison

      Whether you’re looking for a short term or long term deposit account, our nifty comparison tools let you quickly filter and compare term deposits according to the features and fixed term you want.

      You can shortlist term deposits and compare your rates, fees and features side-by-side to pick a winner.

    • Finding the best term deposit rates

      Before you compare term deposits, remember that your money will be locked away from reach for the length of the term. Make sure that you won’t need to access your cash before the term is up, as early withdrawal fees can be harsh.

      Fixed deposit terms range from as little as 30 days to three years or more. Term deposit rates differ according to the length of the term and the amount you are investing, so it pays to shop around for the best deposit term and interest rate for your situation.

      If you know your preferred investment term you can find information here on:
      1 month term deposits
      1 year term deposits

      It is worth crunching the numbers with a term deposit calculator to see how much your term deposit will be worth at the end of the investment period and compare this with high interest savings accounts rates.

    • Term deposit features

      Banks calculate and pay term deposit interest in different ways, such as daily, monthly, quarterly and annually. Trying to compare term deposits in this way is enough to give anyone a headache, but choosing a deposit product that pays interest frequently and automatically rolls the interest back in will give you a bigger pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
