How Save the Change works
Save the change is available for ASB customers who have a transaction account and savings account.
You choose how much you'd like to save, rounded up to the nearest $1, $2, $5 or $10. Then whenever you use your EFTPOS card and/or your ASB Visa Debit card, or make an electronic payment, the difference between the purchase price and the rounding amount will be deposited into a savings account of your choice.
- You can choose which everyday account you'd like the payments to come from, as well as the savings account you'd like your change deposited into.
- Save the Change can be linked to either EFTPOS and/or ASB Visa Debit card payments. You can also include other payment types such as direct debits and automatic payments (Save the Change is not available with credit card or online transactions).
- You can manage your Save the Change set up through the ASB Mobile app or FastNet Classic. Turn Save the Change on or off, change your rounding amounts, update your payment type and change the bank accounts linked to Save the Change at any time.
