As home loan interest rates are increasing and you’re looking at putting some of your hard-earned money into a savings account then you may want to keep reading. I’ve been looking around to see which banks have the highest savings interest rates and I’ve compiled a list below. In the past couple of months, I’ve opened at least 2-3 savings accounts and have been transferring money into the bank account with the highest savings rate.

The below savings rates are as of 23/08/2022. Rates may change without notice so please always check the website for the current and most up-to-date rates. To get the rates, you must meet the conditions listed by the bank.

Rate: 3.1% P.A. on up to $100,000

Conditions:

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, Personal Loans 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 current month is higher than it was at the end of the previous month. When we assess whether you’ve met this balance growth requirement, interest earned in the current month is not taken into account.
