Earn bonus interest each month you grow your net balance by at least $200 (excluding interest) and make no more than one withdrawal.
This account offers a maximum bonus rate of 5.05% on your balance. This is an ongoing bonus rate too, so it’s not going to expire after a few months after opening the account.
To earn this rate you need to grow your net balance (excluding interest earned) by $200 each month. This means that if you withdraw money from the account, you need to replace that money plus add another $200 during the month to earn the bonus interest.
You can make no more than one withdrawal during the month in order to be eligible for bonus interest. This account is designed to help you save and motivate you to leave the money in the account earning interest. If you’d prefer the flexibility of being able to access your savings whenever you need to you could consider a savings account with no withdrawal restrictions, although you might need to settle for a lower interest rate.
This account is designed to help you grow your savings balance. It offers bonus interest each month you grow your net balance by $200 or more (excluding any interest earned in the month) and make no more than one withdrawal.
Read on to learn more about the features of this high interest savings account, and how the bonus interest works.

Hi Josh,
Thanks for reaching out to Finder.
Yes. Suncorp Growth Saver account can be opened by joint applicants, 11 years of age or older.
The joint account will be set up as “any to operate” which means that either account holder is authorised to withdraw funds from the account and complete transactions on behalf of both account holders.
You can also contact Suncorp at any time to change your account permissions.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Charisse

In order to qualify for the bonus interest does it mean that although you are allowed to make one withdrawal in a month, you need to replace at least that withdrawal amount plus the $200 dollars deposit by the end of the last day of the next month? In other words, the account must never fall below the the original deposit amount plus $200 each month, for the bonus interest to apply?

Hi Stan,
Thank you for getting in touch with Finder.
That’s right. So long that you grow your balance by more than $200 (excluding interest) and make no or just one withdrawal each month then you meet the bonus interest criteria.
I hope this helps.
Thank you and have a wonderful day!
Cheers,
Jeni
