Expert review

This business transaction account has a $22 monthly account fee which may seem a bit steep at first, but the account comes with a number of included benefits. You can make unlimited ANZ transactions at no extra cost, including staff-assisted cash deposits and withdrawals in branch which normally attract a fee.

Plus, you’ll get access to ANZ Internet Banking for Business which normally has a $15 monthly fee. This online platform allows you to set higher transaction limits, make large transactions requiring co-signatory authorisation, make international business transactions and help with payroll management. If you don’t think you need included access to ANZ Internet Banking for Business, you can take a look at the ANZ Business Advantage Account instead. This account includes unlimited free ANZ transactions too, but you don’t get access to the online business portal.
