Frequently Asked Questions

The following frequently asked questions are educational and based on publicly available information:

A term deposit is a type of deposit account where you agree to leave your funds untouched for a fixed period in exchange for a fixed rate of interest over that term.
Term deposits commonly range from short terms such as 1, 3 or 6 months through to longer terms such as 12 months, 24 months or more. Available terms can vary between providers and change over time, so it is important to check the latest options before applying.
The minimum deposit amount can vary depending on the provider, product, term and customer type. Some providers allow smaller deposits, while others may require a higher minimum balance to access certain rates.
Yes, generally. Term deposit rates are typically fixed for the agreed term, meaning the rate usually does not change during the term even if market interest rates move up or down.
Early withdrawals may be possible, but they are usually subject to notice periods, provider approval, and interest adjustments or break costs. You should check the early withdrawal rules before opening a term deposit.
Eligible deposits with authorised deposit-taking institutions may be covered by the Australian Government’s Financial Claims Scheme, up to applicable limits. You should confirm whether the specific account and institution are covered before depositing funds.
