Smash your goals with a Bankwest savings account
Choose the right savings account for you
Thinking of opening a Bankwest savings account? Here's how to choose the one that will best suit your saving habits. Remember to check the Product Disclosure Statement before you apply.
Customise your savings account
After you’ve organised the savings account you’re going to use, you can set it up to help you stay on track.
Set and forget with scheduled payments
If you prefer for your account to be out of sight and out of mind, then why not make saving automatic? You could set up scheduled transfers from your transaction account to your savings account every payday and before you even know it, the money is there.
Keep a close watch with Bankwest Easy Alerts
Bankwest Easy Alerts can help you keep track of your account activity. Depending on the accounts you have, you could receive a notification before a scheduled payment is due, if your account balance drops below or reaches a nominated amount, and more.
Create and track your goal in the Bankwest App
You could turn an eligible savings account into a customised savings tracker. Tell us how much you want to save and by when, and we'll crunch the numbers. You can see how you’re tracking and even set up scheduled payments.
