So
what is a traveller account?
A bank account specifically designed for backpackers coming
to Australia on a working holiday visa. It's an account
you can apply for and manage online. It has an easy one-page
application form and you don't even need an Australian address.
Other
Features.
- Withdraw up to $3,000 a day - brilliant idea if you
need to pay a deposit on a flat!
- No monthly account management fees
- Instant access to your cash at over 250,000 EFTPOS
machines and 100,000 ATM's in Australia
- You can also make withdrawals from ATM's outside
Australia with a Traveller Account and you only pay
$1 per transaction which is half the cost that most
other banks charge*.
- 24/7 telephone and internet banking
Once you have completed your online application you will
be given an account number, which means you can transfer your
hard earned spending money from your home bank account into
your new Australian account before you fly to OZ. You just
need to give your home bank the details of your new Australian
bank account and they can arrange the transfer for you! Then
when you arrive in Australia all you need to do is bring your
passport to one of our designated pick up points and you'll
get your ATM card PIN number immediately so you are ready
to go - it couldn't be easier.
