If your child’s ready to start building up their savings stash, they’ll need a great value savings account to put it in. That’s where the Endeavour Mutual Bank Young Saver comes in. Endeavour Mutual Bank's Young Saver account has a bumper 1.00% interest rate and no account keeping fees, so kids up to 17 years old can get a great return on their pocket money with this account.
Let’s start with the feature you really want to know about - that generous 1.00% interest rate. Savings kept in the Endeavour Mutual Bank Young Saver account will earn this interest on balances up to $5,000 without you lifting a finger - there are no deposit requirements or withdrawal limits.
There’s also the ability to make unlimited free transactions either through online banking or over the phone, plus, kids will get online access to newsletters, activity sheets, competitions and financial tips to help keep them motivated and in the loop when it comes to their money.
Kids also have the option to link this account to an Endeavour Mutual transaction account with a linked debit card, so they can get at their stash a bit easier and start working on their budgeting skills!
This account is available for Aussie kids and youths up to 17 years old, though keep in mind there’s a limit of one account per child and it’s not available to kids who already have a Kickstart Saver Account.
The Endeavour Mutual Bank Young Saver Account is truly a kids account - it’s available up until your kids turn 17, and it’s held in their name, not as a trust account (although they will need a parent or legal guardian to sign off on official documents until they’re 12 years old).
This account has a $10,000 balance limit, so if you go above that amount, you’ll need to open a different account for their stash. Another thing to keep in mind is that once kids turn 18, they’ll become a full Adult Member of Endeavour Mutual Bank, and their Young Saver account will need to be closed.
