Our verdict

Do you want an everyday bank account that rewards you as well as the Defence community?

This is one of only a few transaction accounts that offer cashback on purchases. You can earn 1% cashback on tap and go purchases under $100, up to the value of $25 a month.

To get this cashback perk you need to deposit $2,000 per month. When you deposit $2,000 a month you’ll also get the $4 account keeping fee waived.

The cashback offer is a cool perk, but make sure you don’t fall into the trap of spending just to get the cashback.

Pros

  • Linked Visa debit card
  • 24/7 access to funds through Internet Banking
  • 1% cash back if you deposits $2,000 p/m (conditions apply)

Cons

  • Only eligible for members
