Expert review

This is an everyday transaction account for Australian Concession or Health Care card holders only. It charges no account keeping fees and there’s no monthly deposit conditions to meet or minimum ongoing balance requirement.

It comes with an ANZ Visa Debit Card which you can use to make unlimited free transactions at EFTPOS terminals or via Internet, phone and mobile banking.

If you’re not a Concession or Health Care card holder, you can take a look at the ANZ Access Advantage Account instead. This account is very similar, however it does charge a $5 monthly account keeping fee unless you can deposit $2,000 a month.

Key features

No account keeping fee

There’s no setup fees or monthly account keeping fee with this account.
