Mozo snapshot

Looking to get a high interest rate savings account? Bendigo Bank’s Reward Saver account offers a bonus interest rate of 5.25% p.a. as long as you’ve got an eligible transaction account and grow your balance. If you’re a new customer, you can choose to apply online or you can visit a branch to open up an account.

Key features

The Bendigo Bank Reward Saver account comes with a number of handy features such as online e-banking from the Bendigo Bank app. This can let you do automatic transfers so you can keep growing your balance without raising a finger. 


But automatic transfers aren’t just convenient. Since Bendigo Banks Reward Saver is a bonus rate savings account, you will have to fulfil some extra conditions to get the full bonus rate. This condition requires that you close the month with a higher balance than the previous one in addition to the interest paid by Bendigo Bank. You can also make withdrawals, but you need to make sure that you end with a higher balance and make at least one deposit a month. 


If you can’t meet these conditions, you’ll revert to a lower base rate of only 0.30% p.a. And that isn’t the only reason you might get lower interest, because balances over $100,000 will receive this rate too.

Who is it good for

If you’re a saver looking for a savings account with a high interest rate, then Bendigo Bank’s Reward Saver may be a good choice.

Any catches

Base rate applies for balances over $100,000, so if you’ve got a large chunk of cash, this could be a deal breaker.
