Set your sights on something bigger

It’s nice when you receive an unexpected windfall, like a tax return. And although you might be tempted to go out and splurge it, parking it in your Incentive Saver account can be a great way to accelerate your savings balance and reach those large savings goals sooner.

Get even more incentives for saving your tax return

Set yourself a goal
Saving is easier when you’ve got a clear goal in mind, whether it’s some new wheels, a trip away or just stashing some cash for a rainy day.
Personalise your account
Give your account a nickname that matches your savings goal and stay focused on hitting your goals.
Automate your savings
Put your savings on autopilot and keep earning bonus interest* by setting up a recurring payment.


Take the thinking out of saving

Setting up an automatic regular transfer is an easy way to keep your savings ticking over. Just head to Internet and Mobile Banking and follow the steps below. If you’d prefer the freedom to make manual deposits, then just follow the same process.

 

Logon to Internet Banking or open the Bank of Melbourne App, select ‘Transfer and Pay’ then choose the accounts you’d like to transfer from and into.
 

Enter the transfer amount and highlight the check box to set up a scheduled or recurring payment. Then choose the frequency, plus the start and end date, then hit continue.

Review your transfer, and if you’re happy, select ‘Submit payment’.
