Tax time is over. What's next? Well, with the second half of the year in full swing, thoughts of Christmas (and its associated costs) come to the fore.
But setting a bit aside, regularly and automatically with a periodical payment, can reap real dividends because now for every Online periodical payment made, the process is free¹.
Periodical payments - can help you minimise fees¹
Take your everyday bank account, for example, add a high interest online savings account (or other eligible accounts²) and connect the two via Westpac Online Banking with a scheduled periodical payment.
You just choose an amount, a frequency and watch your savings grow¹.
| Periodical payments | Previous fee | Current fee¹ |
|---|---|---|

Between eligible Westpac branded accounts² |

| To non-Westpac branded accounts in Australia | $2.50 | $0 |
Note: A fee will apply if an Online periodical payment is not made because of lack of funds in your account.
