Membership is a lifelong bond - for wherever life’s journey takes you.
Your achievements throughout your ADF career have been well earned, and as a member of Australia’s Defence Bank, you’re set to reap the rewards long after you transition out. And if you, your partner and family are not yet a member, we'd be delighted to welcome you all to ours.
Now, how can we serve you?
If you’ve retired, resigned or have been discharged from the ADF, you could be eligible for our Salute, a reward-for-service 12-month savings account with a much more competitive rate - usually over 50 basis points on top of our standard already generous rates. It’s simply our way to say thank you.
Leaving the ADF doesn’t mean you need to switch to a civilian bank - as an ex-ADF member, we look after you for life.
If you’ve only just found us, becoming a member of Australia’s Defence Bank keeps you connected with the Defence community, alongside a fantastic range of accounts and loans with industry-leading rates and extras, all supported by our Australian-based staff.
A new life stage might bring something new - be it a car, gadget, holiday or long-awaited home renovation. Make it happen now with the highly competitive low rate on our personal loan.
It’s time for you to get the protection you deserve with insurance policies that have your back. Our flexible insurance options covering your home and contents, car and investment property are loaded with benefits.
Even though we’ve traditionally focused on the Australian Defence Force, you don’t have to be a Defence Force employee or relative to take advantage of Defence Bank’s products and services – membership is open to all Australians.
There is a daily limit on cash withdrawals over the counter transactions of $5,000 per day.
Where you may be seeking to withdraw an amount that is greater than the daily limit, you will need to contact your local branch and provide at least 1 business days’ notice before the withdrawal can be processed.
You’ll first need to be issued a password, then log in for the first time using your member number and the temporary password that will be sent to you as a text.
