Do I need to have an ASB savings account to use Save the Change?
Last Updated: 27 Jul 2021
Yes, although it can be either your own ASB savings account or someone else's, whoever you'd like to receive the money.
If you don't have an eligible ASB savings account, you can apply for an account online.
In the ASB Mobile Banking app:
- Log in and select Open & apply from the main menu.
- Select Transaction or Savings account and follow the instructions.
In FastNet Classic:
- Log in and select ‘Open and apply’ on the accounts page.
- When the Open & apply page opens, select 'Open an account' from the Bank accounts section.
- Select a savings account and follow the instructions to apply.
