Expert review

This everyday account is designed for your day-to-day business spending and money management. As well as having easy access to your business funds whenever you need it with a linked debit card, it also pays a small amount of interest on your balance, which isn’t very common for a business transaction account.

You have the option of adding a line of credit or overdraft facility (subject to the usual eligibility criteria) which can help with cash flow. You can also link your bank feeds to your accounting software like Xero or MYOB to help manage your business transactions and spending.

There is a $10 monthly account fee with this account, however this is fairly common with business transaction accounts.
