Everything seems to come with an 'i' these days: iPad, iCloud... now there's the NAB iSaver. As the name suggests the NAB iSaver is made for your personal savings, offering a 0.35% intro rate, no bank fees, transaction fees or balance requirements.
The NAB iSaver has a 0.35% intro rate available for the first four months, which smoothly transitions to an ongoing standard bonus interest rate of 0.30% and a standard variable rate of 0.05%. Unlike other bonus interest savings accounts, you can make unlimited deposits or withdrawals on the iSaver and your interest rate won't be affected. There are no minimum or opening balance requirements and all interest is calculated daily and paid monthly on every $1.
There is a $20 million cap on the bonus rate but you'll still get the 0.05% standard variable interest rate for balances over $20 million (lucky you).
Savers who want a flexible savings account that has a solid interest rate (both introductory and ongoing bonus) plus no fees. You'll need to have an eligible NAB everyday transaction account to open an iSaver.
You can only transfer funds in and out of the savings account through the linked NAB transaction account. And the bonus 0.35% intro rate is only available to a customer's first NAB iSaver account.

The iSaver Savings account is simple and fast to set up if you already have an account with NAB. Pre-COVID 19 the iSaver had great interest rates, better than any of the term deposits I investigated from several different banks. The flexibility of transferring in and out of the iSaver made it a great place to store most of my money for a short time while never feeling locked off from my funds. Closing the account did require calling the bank, but you get to talk with knowledgeable friendly staff without much waiting, and they can see any lagging funds/interest that hasn't shown up in the online banking portal and directly transfer it wherever you need.
