86 400 currently offers a linked Pay and Save account only; however, it plans to launch a home loan soon. When you download the app, you’ll receive a Pay account and from there you can choose to open a Save account within the app and transfer some of your balance into the Save account.

86 400 Pay account

The 86 400 Pay account is what you’ll get when you initially download the app and create an 86 400 account. It’s an everyday transaction account with no account-keeping fees. You can receive payments into your Pay account and make transactions from the account online or in stores using the linked Visa Debit Card. You can also use the account to make transactions when travelling overseas.

86 400 Save account

Once you’ve got your 86 400 app and Pay account set up, you can add a Save account within the app. You can transfer money from your Pay account into the Save account, and the money in your Save account will earn interest.

The Save account offers a maximum variable rate of 1.2% p.a.on balances up to $50,000. You’ll get this bonus rate each month you transfer at least $1,000 into your 86 400 Pay account. When you don’t meet the monthly deposit requirement, the balance in your Save account will earn the standard variable rate of 0.1% p.a.

Visa Debit card
You’ll get a free Visa Debit card with your 86 400 account that’s linked to your Pay account. You can use the card to shop online or in-store all around the world and withdraw cash from ATMs.

Note that you’ll be charged an ATM withdrawal fee set by the ATM operator; however, there are over 10,000 ATMs in Australia that are free to use including all Westpac, CBA, NAB and ANZ ATMs.

Low fee account
There are no account-keeping fees and the app is completely free to download. There are no fees for transferring money to and from your linked Pay and Save account, and it’s free to transfer money to others via the app. There's no international transactions when using the account to make purchases overseas or when shopping online from overseas merchants.

    86400 digital bank supported devices mentions only phones. Does this mean iPads and desktop computers (iMac specifically) are excluded?
