Bank Australia Bonus Saver

Mozo snapshot:

Sometimes a higher interest rate incentive is just the kind of savings motivator you need. Enter the Bonus Saver by Bank Australia, where the standard rate gets boosted to 2.15% when you deposit $100 into your account every month and make no withdrawals.

You'll also be able to access the Bonus Saver account on your phone through the 2019 Mozo Experts Choice Excellent Banking App award-winning Bank Australia app. 

Key features:

The Bonus Saver by Bank Australia has a lot of the features you want in a savings account. To start with, it doesn’t cost a cent to open the account and there are no ongoing fees, plus its 2.15% special interest rate really does speak for itself.

Just keep in mind, if you don’t meet the conditions of depositing $100 into the account each month and making no monthly withdrawals, the standard interest rate will drop to a low 0.10%.

If you like to do your banking face to face, also be mindful you’ll be charged $2.50 for dipping into your savings over the counter at a Bank Australia branch. That’s why it’s cheaper and more convenient to manage your account elsewhere such as through the internet banking portal or over the phone. When it comes to topping up your Bonus Saver account, you can also do it via BPay.

Who it's good for:

With a competitive interest rate at 2.15%, the Bonus Saver really does provide great value for the regular saver.
