Frequently asked questions
The ability to open a business savings account online varies by bank and account type. Some Westpac business savings accounts can be opened online, as long as you have a Westpac transaction account to link it to (which you can open at the same time).
Some businesses open savings accounts to ‘store away’ funds received, for tax time. This can allow them to earn additional income from these amounts. There are different types of savings accounts and many other short- and long-term investment options, so we recommend you seek professional advice, or talk to your accountant about the best investment option for your specific business circumstances.
Yes, Westpac business savings accounts must be linked to a current (or ‘transaction’) account. It may be worth noting that when you open a Westpac Business Cash Reserve savings account online, you can open a current account at the same time – subject to eligibility.
It’s worth doing some research to help you identify the right business savings account for your business needs. You could start by comparing Westpac business savings accounts on our compare all business savings accounts page.
