Term deposits are a popular savings option if you have a lump sum and are happy to lock it away for a set period of time, in exchange you’ll get a higher interest rate than if it was in a regular bank account. But with hundreds of term deposits available, finding the best one for your needs can be time consuming.
That’s where these awards come in. We compare a long list of term deposits and award those that stand out from the crowd for best value, making this the perfect place for you to begin your term deposit search.

Now in their twelfth year, the Mozo Experts Choice Awards present an opportunity to highlight products in the market we believe offer great value to Australians.
For the 2025 Term Deposit awards, we analysed 78 term deposits issued by 78 Australian financial institutions.
“Finding the best term deposit can be tricky as there are so many terms and options available, and with the RBA movement in swing, you want to be sure you’re getting the most bang for your buck," Mozo Experts Choice Awards Judge Peter Marshall said.
“To help make this less daunting for everyday Australians, we developed a method for identifying the term deposit accounts that are most likely to have better rates. Our award winners serve as a great place to start whether you want to lock your money away for a few months or a few years. “
For details on how we crunched the numbers and determined our winners, see the 2025 Mozo Experts Choice Term Deposits Awards methodology report.
