Student Banking
Student life isn’t just about study, it’s also about enjoying your freedom and experiencing all life has to offer without worry or stress.
Our Access Account takes the worry out of everyday transactions with a free Visa Debit Card, Visa payWave compatibility and no monthly fees.
With a range of digital wallets including Google Pay™, Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, Garmin Pay™, an excellent banking app and more, your money will be at your fingertips whether you're in study mode or planning your summer holidays.
You can even use your Access Account to ‘micro-save’ by rounding up your purchase. Whenever you make an eligible transaction using your Credit Union SA card, you can choose to round up your purchases and put the spare change into your account. Get started today! Open the drop-down menu in our Mobile Banking App, select ‘Round-ups’ and choose which of your accounts you would like your spare change to go into. It’s that simple! Or visit this page for more information about other ‘micro-saving’ options.
