Earn a high interest rate with a savings account

Sometimes you might want to pull extra cash aside until you're ready to use it. With a savings account, you can earn interest on your savings, but still access them easily when you need it.

Our savings accounts

If you've just moved to Australia, we've got a range of bank accounts that could suit your savings needs. Some savings accounts give you easy access to your cash by transferring it to your linked everyday account (just use Internet or Mobile Banking). Other accounts could reward you for making regular contributions to your savings.

If you are opening an account, you need to provide forms of identification. For information on which specific type of identification documents are required, see BankSA Checklist. (PDF 1MB)
