Hi Anthony,
Your Up spending account has a BSB and Account Number like any other bank account in Australia. You can transfer funds into this account by transferring them using these details. You can also deposit cheques through Bank@Postâ„¢ at your local Australia Post outlet with no fees attached.
Hope this helps1

Will there ever be an option to have more than one card for an account? The only downside I find with Up at the moment is everything comes out of the 1 account, I like to split long term bills and every day transactions instead of tracking everything I spend

Hi Ash,
You’ve reached Finder. We aren’t sure what Up’s plans are for its account, you’re best to contact them directly to ask about any upcoming plans to launch mini/sub-accounts.
Thanks,
Alison

Hi,
Does Up Bank have an online portal accessible through a standard internet browser, or is it only accessible entirely through a phone app?

Hello. Just a quick question.
Once I’ve purchased a card and deposited money on to it, Will I be able to use the card for purchases online straight away? Before it arrives in the mail ?
Thanks,
Also just wanted to say this,
This is my first time using Finder, and i think it’s brilliant.
I spent way too long reading through the “ask an expert “ section though , because I enjoyed it.
It got me thinking….. “Wow I should get back to work lol.
Some great questions were asked, and all were answered politely and accurately.
I noticed there when an expert replies to a question, a little profile pic of the expert pops up. That’s awesome, because the experts are not only super helpful, But also super attractive.
( In a professional sense of course. ) also
It would be fun to read a brief bio about each
Oh, and one more thing.
Whoever the “lucky expert is that gets to read this, can you do me just 2 small favours pretty please?
1…. Keep up the great work!
2…. Could you please tell Sarah Megginson that she’s a walking, talking reason to live. What a wonderful woman she is. Inside and outside.
