Please note: We require document certification to be done by an authorised third-party. Even if you are an authorised certifier yourself, we will still require a third party to certify your documents for you. Document certifiers must not be related to the applicant (e.g. their parent, child, brother, sister, aunt, uncle or cousin, spouse or partner of the customer) or the application (e.g. Director of the business, employee, trustee). The document certifier also cannot be a person who lives at the same address as the customer.

To certify the copy of the document, they will need to:

• Provide a written statement 'I hereby certify this document is a true copy of the original document shown to me on [date]'.
• Write their name, Authorisation title (e.g. Justice of the Peace) and sign the photocopy of the document.

All documents need to be certified in the last 6 months and we require one certification statement per document (unless it is explicitly clear that the certification statement applies to more than one document).

The PremiumSaver account rewards good savings habits with a higher interest rate. If you increase your net balance by at least $200 (or $2000 if you have a business account) excluding interest before the last business day of every month, you'll earn the higher variable interest rate.  The PremiumSaver is a variable rate product, with no fees, no minimum balance requirements and no minimum term. You can transfer money any time between your Linked account with your other bank and your PremiumSaver using the BSB and account number, or use our direct debit option to transfer money in from your nominated linked account once it has been verified. You can also set up a regular savings plan so you don’t forget.

Customers can only open one PremiumSaver per entity type (individual, joint and SMSF). New customers can open a PremiumSaver by clicking on ‘Apply For Savings Account’ from our home page and follow the on screen prompts. If you are an existing customer, there’s no need to apply for a new account, simply log in to your account, click on ‘Open a new Savings account or Term Deposit’ which can be found in the top right hand corner, then select ‘PremiumSaver’. You can also watch this helpful step by step video on how to open a new savings account:

Interest is calculated daily on the available account balance and paid monthly. There are three tiers and the PremiumSaver minimum and maximum interest rates offered depend on your account balance. These tiers apply to all personal, joint and SMSF accounts; 

Tier 1: for account balances up to $250,000 
Tier 2: on the portion of your balance between $250,001 and $1million
Tier 3: on the portion of your account balance which is above $1million
