Frequently Asked Questions

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

The tax treatment of an insurance payout depends on the type of policy and payment. This is general information only – you should speak with a tax professional about your specific payout.
Yes, generally. There is usually no requirement to decide quickly, and many people prefer to hold funds in an accessible account while they consider their options.
A term deposit involves depositing funds for a fixed period in exchange for a fixed rate of return over that term, subject to the provider’s terms and conditions.
Once deposited with an authorised institution, payout funds are generally treated the same as other deposits for protection purposes, such as under the Financial Claims Scheme, subject to applicable limits.
No. Deposit Desk does not provide financial, legal or tax advice. A licensed financial adviser can provide guidance specific to your circumstances, particularly for larger payouts.
This varies by provider. Some participating providers consider amounts from $50,000, while others may have different minimums.
