While the amount that you choose to save is up to you, a good guide is to get to know how your chosen account works, and plan your savings activity around making sure you meet the periodical account requirements in order to earn interest. For example, our Bonus Saver rewards you with interest when you make at least one deposit and no withdrawals in a calendar month.

Another good way to know how much you need to save is to work towards a savings goal. If you’re saving for something big, you’re more likely to be motivated to stick to a savings plan. Luckily, you’re able to plot and track your savings goal using our handy Savings Goal Calculator – get started now!

And if you simply want to know how much money out of your pay packet you’ll have leftover for saving, you’re able to track this using our Budget Calculator – try it now to see where you stand.

Any parent, guardian or adult (18+) – whether that’s a grandparent, relative or family friend – can open a Life Saver on behalf of a child. Right now, this process can only be completed in your nearest branch.

If you intend to act as a benefactor on the account for the child, we’ll need you to bring along ID for both you and the child. We will need you to bring physical copies as we are not currently able to accept digital versions of your identification.

If you don’t intend to act as a benefactor, you will just need to provide your child’s ID. Your child will also need to be with you as they will need to be able to understand and accept the Terms and Conditions and be able to sign for themselves.

If you don’t have a drivers licence or the child is unable to locate their birth certificate, we still may be able to help. Check out our FAQs for more identification options.

If you’re still unsure or would like further clarification before opening an account on behalf of a child, you can give us a call on 13 13 86.
