How the Dream Fund rate works

The Dream Fund splits its rate into two components: a base rate of 0.41% p.a. paid on all balances, plus a bonus rate of 4.74% p.a. that you earn in any month your balance grows. Combined, that's 5.15% p.a.

The growth condition is straightforward: your balance just needs to be higher at month end than it was at month start — interest credits don't count toward the growth. If you miss a month, you fall back to the base rate for that month only.

The bonus rate applies to balances up to $100,000. Balances above that threshold earn the base rate.
