Help and support

How do I access my funds?

You can access your term deposit funds at maturity, and you have a 7-day grace period after maturity to withdraw or reinvest. Early access before maturity requires 31 days' notice and may incur interest reductions and fees, unless you're approved under financial hardship, in which case penalties may be waived. You can manage your account online, via the mobile app, or through the Client Service Centre.

How does a high interest savings account benefit my business?

For businesses, a high‑yield savings account allows excess cash to earn more competitive interest than sitting in a low-rate transaction account.

What interest rate does the term deposit offer?

It depends on your chosen term and rates are subject to change.
