We’re proud of
our community.
This is ME.
At ME, we celebrate all stories and believe every Australian deserves the same success in life - regardless of sexuality or gender identity. ME proudly supports the LGBTQIA+ community through our partnerships, people and products.
We’re making it rain(bow) for queer youth.
We have teamed up with Minus18, the charity that champions and improves the lives of queer youth through advocacy, leading change, and social inclusion.
Our new rainbow SpendME1 debit card donates 1c to Minus18 with every digital tap - and the best bit? The donations are on ME.

Pride comes from the inside.
Let ME tell you how we do it.
ProudlyMe
ProudlyMe is a BOQ Group affinity network for the LGBTQIA+ community.
The group supports ME and BOQ Group in delivering better outcomes for its rainbow customers and employees through celebrating days of significance, education, training, raising money, and awareness.
Gender affirmation leave policy
At ME and BOQ Group, LGBTQIA+ inclusion is an important part of our commitment to create a safe and supportive organisation. That is why, in 2023 we introduced our Gender Affirmation Leave policy which applies to our employees who are going through Gender Affirmation process, whether it be socially, legally, or medically.
Yes for marriage equality.
In 2017, ME was one of the first banks to make a public statement in support of the Yes vote for marriage equality and lit up our Melbourne Central Tower in rainbow lights.
