2. Online Savings Account (OSA) variable bonus interest terms and conditions, valid until 30 September 2019.
To receive bonus interest on your OSA for any calendar month you must have a ME Everyday Transaction Account (ETA) and during that month we process at least one purchase you make with your ETA Debit Mastercard® per week using tap & go™. Bonus interest is only payable on balances up to $250,000 on the first OSA you open. You’re automatically eligible for bonus interest on your first OSA unless it was opened before 10/08/15, in which case you’re only eligible upon request. Purchases made in a calendar month which are processed in the next calendar month (for reasons beyond our control) are not eligible purchases for bonus interest. If you don’t meet all of these bonus interest conditions you’ll receive variable base rate interest only, however in any month we may without notice waive the requirement for you to meet all of these conditions. We may change or withdraw the bonus interest offer at any time.
From 1 October 2019, we’re changing your Online Savings Account bonus interest Terms and Conditions to make it even easier for you to receive your bonus interest each month. You can find out more in our new terms and conditions below.
Online Savings Account (OSA) variable bonus interest terms and conditions, valid from 1 October 2019.
To receive bonus interest on your OSA for any calendar month you must have a ME Everyday Transaction Account (ETA) and during that month you make at least four tap & go™ purchases with your ETA debit Mastercard® which are settled by us with the relevant merchant. Your OSA(s) and ETA(s) must be in the same name (sole name accounts) or names (joint name accounts) for you to be eligible for bonus interest. Bonus interest is only payable on balances up to $250,000 on each OSA you open. You’re automatically eligible for bonus interest on each of your OSAs unless they were opened before 10/08/15, in which case you’re only eligible for bonus interest upon request from the date of the request. Purchases made in a calendar month which are settled by us in the next calendar month (for reasons beyond our control) do not count towards the four card purchases needed in the calendar month, but will contribute to the next calendar month’s count. If, on the day you close your OSA, there have been purchase transactions at the time of closure which have not yet been settled by us, these will not be eligible purchases for bonus interest. If you don’t meet all of these bonus interest conditions you will receive variable base rate interest only, however in any month we may without notice waive the requirement for you to meet all of these conditions. We may change or withdraw the bonus interest offer at any time.
