Here’s how Jamie-Lee is smashing her savings goals
Jamie-Lee’s mum taught her the importance of saving, and with the help of Greater Bank’s Life Saver Account, she’s reaching her goals and saving up for her next adventure.
Jamie-Lee smashing her savings goals
A great savings plan that really pays off
Jamie-Lee is pretty savvy when it comes to saving. When her pay comes in from her part-time job, she uses her Greater Bank app to transfer half of it into her Life Saver account and leave the other half in her Access account for day-to-day spending. It’s a simple plan that delivers the results, over and over again.
The bigger the savings, the greater the reward
When Jamie-Lee’s phone died in the middle of the supermarket, she wasn’t too happy about it. Fortunately, her mum had taught her the importance of saving, so Jamie-Lee had enough in her Greater Bank Life Saver Account to buy a new phone outright.
She was also able to replace her laptop when it stopped working in the middle of an exam. Then she set her sights on saving for her very own set of wheels.
When she’d saved enough, she found the perfect car, and she did it!
Here’s how Jamie-Lee did it
Access Account
Jamie-Lee works part-time. She doesn’t earn squillions, so not having to pay account-keeping fees on her Access Account means more of her hard-earned money stays in her pocket. And, as the name suggests, it’s easy to access her money for all her day-to-day spending.
- No monthly account keeping fees
- 24 hour access to your money via EFTPOS and direct fee-free access to ‘big 4’ ATMs and access to Greater Bank’s ATM network
- Free Online Banking
Life Saver
Jamie-Lee’s Life Saver account is her savings secret weapon. Every month that she deposits more than she withdraws, she is rewarded with a high interest rate – and that helps her savings grow even faster.
- High interest as long as your balance increases each month
- No account keeping or transaction fees
- Great savings rewards for under 25s
Mobile App
Between high school, homework, a part-time job and dance rehearsals, Jamie-Lee hasn’t got a whole lot of spare time, so she uses her Greater Bank app to keep track of her savings and everyday accounts anywhere, anytime.
- Set up SMS & Email Alerts to monitor
- Schedule payments and transfer funds
- Quick view of selected balances without having to log in
