IMB Bank is an Australian credit union offering savings accounts across several life stages. Its highest rate is available through the Zoo Account, designed for children aged 0 to 12, and requires a minimum $10 deposit and no withdrawals in the calendar month to earn a bonus rate on top of the base rate. The DIY Super Account pays a competitive rate with no bonus conditions. The Christmas Club Account is a forced-savings product: interest is paid only if you make no withdrawals between 1 January and 31 October, and any withdrawal in that window closes the account and forfeits the interest entirely — savings are then released for spending in November and December.
Deposits with IMB Bank are protected under the Financial Claims Scheme up to $250,000 per account holder per ADI.
