Personal Term Deposit

Personal Term Deposits require a minimum opening deposit of $10,000. The combined total deposits in all your Personal Term Deposit accounts is not permitted to exceed $5 million, whether the accounts are in individual or joint names. The interest rates that apply to Personal Term Deposits are the interest rates that are current on the date the term deposit is opened.

Savings Accelerator

Information and interest rate is current as at the date of publication and is subject to change.

Kick starter offer - available on accounts opened from 9 August 2024.

The variable kick starter rate is an introductory variable bonus rate that applies on top of the ongoing variable rate on balances of up to $500,000 for 4 months from the date of account opening (that is, the date an account number is issued). For accounts opened between 9 August 2024 and 31 December 2024 (inclusive), the variable kick starter rate is a special rate of % p.a.

The variable kick starter rate is not available on a Savings Accelerator if any account holder has ever held a personal savings account with ING.

For balances over $500,000 during the first 4 months, or any balance after the first 4 months, only the ongoing variable rate will apply.

ING may change, extend or withdraw the current kick starter offer or the kick starter rate (including any special rate) any time. If ING does so, it will provide notice by updating the Savings Accelerator page at ing.com.au. At the expiry of any special rate offer period, the kick starter rate may be lower or higher than the advertised special rate.

The variable kick starter rate is not payable in conjunction with any other promotional rate.

The advertised kick starter rate doesn't apply to accounts opened before 9 August 2024 - you can view your current rates through Online Banking or the Mobile App. The combined total deposits in all your Savings Accelerator account(s) shouldn't exceed $5 million, whether account(s) are in individual or joint name(s).

Combined balances up to $250,000 per account holder are guaranteed by the Australian Government.

Before making any decision in relation to Savings Accelerator you should read the Savings Accelerator Terms and Conditions booklet. To view these documents you may need Adobe Acrobat. Savings Accelerator is issued by ING.

Savings Maximiser

The additional variable rate (that is added to the Savings Maximiser standard variable rate) applies on one nominated Savings Maximiser per customer for the next calendar month when you also hold an Orange Everyday account and in the current calendar month you do the following:

  • deposit at least $1,000 from an external source to any personal ING account in your name (excluding Living Super and Orange One);
  • also make at least 5 card purchases that are settled (and not at a 'pending status') using your ING debit or credit card (excluding ATM withdrawals, balance enquiries, cash advances and EFTPOS cash out only transactions); and
  • ensure that the balance of your nominated Savings Maximiser account at the end of the month (excluding interest) is higher than it was at the end of the previous month. When we assess whether you've met this balance growth requirement, we do not take into account any interest earned on your account in the month.

Each customer can nominate a maximum of one Savings Maximiser account (either single or joint) to receive the additional variable rate (where eligible). You can check and change your nominated Savings Maximiser account via online banking. If no nomination is made, the additional variable rate (where eligible) will be applied to an account nominated by ING at its sole discretion.

Any amounts above $100,000 are subject to the Savings Maximiser standard variable rate applicable at the time. If you do not satisfy the conditions to receive the additional variable rate, the standard variable rate applies. ING can change or withdraw the additional variable rate or the additional variable rate offer at any time with notice. The additional variable rate is not payable in conjunction with any other promotional rate.

Information and interest rates are current as at the date of publication and are subject to change.
