What our digital future means for you

We made the decision to close our branch network in 2024.

Becoming a national digital bank

For 129 years, we’ve thought differently about how we service our customers and have proudly called WA home. We’re continuing this legacy.

Now, we're investing in becoming a digital bank by delivering simple products and new digital experiences, nationwide.

Many customers are already banking digitally

It’s important that we invest in areas which benefit our customers and we’ve seen that the majority of customers are preferring to bank digitally.^

97% of all Bankwest transactions now completed digitally.

Fewer than 2% of customers are visiting a branch regularly.

Branches are closed

After careful consideration, we made the decision to close the Bankwest branch network by October 2024, with 15 regional branches converting to CommBank branches.

As our Bankwest ATMs don’t operate off-premises, they are also now closed.

This change enables us to invest in the digital channels the majority of our customers are choosing to use to bank with us.

Support for customers who used branches

Regional branches converted to CommBank

15 regional Bankwest branches converted to CommBank branches to help ensure rural and regional areas have access to branch services.

There will be no changes to Bankwest customer accounts. We’ve worked with CommBank to simplify customer transitions if this option is right for them.
