Refinancing your mortgage: ACCC says it could save you thousands of dollars
A year and two months after Treasurer Josh Frydenberg directed the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) to conduct an inquiry into home loan pricing, the body has released its final report.
The findings ultimately showed that Aussie homeowners could save thousands by reviewing their current mortgage rate.
“A significant number of Australian home loan borrowers have not switched lenders for several years, yet they stand to save so much money by doing so,” said ACCC Chair, Rod Sims.
“There are factors standing in the way of home loan borrowers switching lenders, such as a lack of clear and transparent pricing, as well as inconvenience and time costs, but for many borrowers switching will be worth the effort.”
And even a small change in rate can make a huge difference over the life of a home loan. For example, the difference in interest paid on a $250,000 home loan between a variable rate of 3.00% and 3.30% over 20 years would be a decent $9,082.

Beem It introduces gift card ready for Aussie Christmas shoppers
![woman sending Christmas gift card using Beem It on her phone](https://cdn.mozo.com.au/images/atwood/11655/woman%20sending%20Beem%20It%20gift%20card%20on%20her%20phone.jpg)
Heard of the payment app, Beem It? Well, whether you have or you haven’t the platform has just dropped a brand new personalised gift card feature.
Beem It customers can now purchase and send personalised gift cards to friends and family via the app. Plus, recipients don’t need to be a Beem It user to spend the gift card!
“We wanted to challenge the view that a digital gift card is the less personal option as we believe the gift of choice is actually quite a thoughtful one,” said head of operations at Beem It, Jason Backhouse.
“To do so, we’ve built the feature with the gifting experience at its core, from allowing users to select from a range of animations reflective of their personal taste. With the digital unwrapping and interactive scratch to reveal functionality, we wanted the gifting experience to feel unique and memorable.”

In need of a shared account? Check out 86 400’s brand new product
This week, neobank 86 400 introduced a new shared account for customers.
The account allows Aussies to manage their finances in a joint 86 400 Pay Account or Save Account.
“Shared finances are one of the trickiest parts of taking control of your money, but we’re making it quicker, easier and a lot less painful,” said chief product and marketing officer, Travis Tyler.
“Typically to open a shared account, you either need to travel to your branch multiple times or to the post office, provide duplicates of the already-provided identification and spend more time than you want to speak to your bank. We’ve completely changed the process and enabled customers to do it from wherever they are, within 30 seconds.”
The account can be used immediately and via the 86 400 app. Plus, account holders can also set up and pay with Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay.

Buy Now Pay Later for Christmas: what not to do
![woman using Buy Now Pay Later for Christmas](https://cdn.mozo.com.au/images/atwood/11655/woman%20using%20buy%20now%20pay%20later%20for%20Christmas%20.jpg)
There’s no doubt that many Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) users will be relying on these platforms to spread the cost of Christmas. And that is a savvy thing to do, as long as you don’t fall into any traps.
In recent Mozo research on BNPL, our team found that late fees on these platforms can range from $3 to $10 per repayment. Plus, there are also extra penalties for late payments that exceed 7 days (which skyrocket to $19.95 per repayment).
“It’s important to keep track of your spending and make sure you can afford your purchases. It can be easy to make multiple purchases on the platforms, leaving you with a calendar full of small repayments that can all add up,” said Mozo Director, Kirsty Lamont.
“For example, if you used Buy Now Pay Later to buy $800 worth of Christmas presents in December with your last purchase on Christmas Eve, you could be paying off your presents until 4th February 2021.”

* WARNING: This comparison rate applies only to the example or examples given. Different amounts and terms will result in different comparison rates. Costs such as redraw fees or early repayment fees, and cost savings such as fee waivers, are not included in the comparison rate but may influence the cost of the loan. The comparison rate displayed is for a secured loan with monthly principal and interest repayments for $150,000 over 25 years.
** Initial monthly repayment figures are estimates only, based on the advertised rate. You can change the loan amount and term in the input boxes at the top of this table.
