JobKeeper Payment scheme - temporary funding assistance

A temporary overdraft facility to help cover employee wages and salaries while you await the JobKeeper Payment.

If you’re an existing Westpac customer, you may wish to enquire about a temporary increase to your existing overdraft or a new temporary overdraft to provide short-term relief whilst awaiting the Government’s JobKeeper payments. This product is a temporary overdraft facility. An overdraft facility is an ‘at call’ facility.  What this means is that you will need to repay the facility when we ask (and we can ask for repayment at any time, even if there’s no event of default). For example, without limiting our rights, if your eligibility for the JobKeeper payment scheme changes, we may demand repayment of your temporary overdraft facility. This offer can only be obtained up until 27 September 2020, Westpac reserves the right to reprice, amend, extend or withdraw this offer at any time.
If you require funding for a different purpose, please refer to our other lending solutions.

Check your eligibility:

Are you an existing Westpac Customer?

Have you nominated a Westpac bank account to receive the JobKeeper payments?

Do you make your payroll payments from a Westpac bank account?

Do you confirm that you will be using the funds to pay your employee salary or wages whilst you await the JobKeeper payments?
