Heading off overseas is an exciting time. Here are some tips to help manage your money, access your bank account and send money home while you're overseas.

If you've got access to the internet, no matter where you are, you'll be able to manage your ASB accounts from a laptop, desktop or mobile phone.

Bank online with FastNet Classic

Simply log in to your account through FastNet Classic internet banking with your user name and password then you can check your balances, pay bills, manage your credit cards, transfer money and more.

Set up automatic payments

You may have some regular bills to pay while you are away, so before you go, set up automatic payments so you can relax knowing that they'll be paid on time. You can do this in FastNet Classic internet banking.

Use your mobile to do your banking

If you haven't already, it makes sense to download the ASB Mobile app especially if you are travelling.

With ASB Mobile you can make payments, transfer money, manage your credit card and generally do all your day-to-day banking from your phone. Just be aware of data roaming changes. Use a password-protected free WIFI connection wherever you can.
