Expert review

This account has all the same features and benefits of the BankSA Complete Freedom Account, except there’s no monthly account keeping fee and no ongoing balance requirements or deposit conditions to meet.

There are strict eligibility requirements, though, so this account isn’t available to all customers. To be eligible for this account you need to be a concession card holder with a senior’s card or a Commonwealth Government Health Concession Card.

If you’re a full-time student, you'll get the monthly account fee waived with the BankSA Complete Freedom Account.

Key features

Monthly service fee

You are not charged any monthly account keeping fees with BankSA's Concession Account.

Accessibility

You are allowed unlimited transactions in branch, at ATMs, over the phone, online, and with EFTPOS free of charge.

How to apply

If the features of the BankSA Concession Account fit in with your spending style, you can apply for this account by calling BankSA or visiting your local branch. Before heading out, check first that you are able to meet their eligibility requirements:
