More than a bank

Sure, Bank Australia has a user-friendly app, internet banking, and all the other things you’d expect of a customer-focused bank. But we’ve got so much more, too.

We’re 100% customer-owned, which means you have voting rights. We don’t pay our execs bonuses, which means more funds are used to support people and the planet. And your money (or anyone’s, for that matter) will not be used to fund harmful industries like fossil fuels, live animal exports or nuclear weapons.
