Student debit cards

Debit cards are a convenient option for students and generally come connected with an everyday bank account. They enable you to make purchases via the Mastercard and Visa network, but unlike a credit card where you 'buy now pay later', with a debit card the transaction comes out of your available bank account balance, meaning no accruing interest or getting into debt. You can tap and play with a debit card or digital wallet like Apple Pay or Google Pay. See below to compare student debit cards available.

If you’re a uni student, or used to be one, chances are you’ve stepped into a Co-op bookstore (or at least walked past one).

Whether you’re a parent of a school-leaver eagerly (or not) waiting for their HSC results, or you’re a returning gap-year adventurer ready to take a leap into university - if you live rurally you may want to familiarise yourself with the Bendigo and Adelaide Bank scholarship.
