About Rabobank

Rabobank is a Dutch-owned cooperative bank that has operated in Australia since 1994, primarily serving the agricultural sector. Its online savings arm — Rabobank Online Savings — is separate from its agribusiness banking and available to all Australian adults. One distinctive aspect of the Rabobank model: savings deposits are used to fund lending to Australian farmers and food producers, which the bank promotes as a point of difference from major bank competitors.

Rabobank offers four personal savings accounts with meaningfully different trade-offs.

PremiumSaver pays its headline rate on balances up to $250,000, provided you grow your balance by at least $200 during the month (excluding interest). If you don't meet that condition in a given month, the rate drops significantly for that month. The $200 growth requirement is simpler than the multi-condition hurdles at some other banks, but it does mean PremiumSaver isn't truly unconditional.

High Interest Savings Account has no monthly conditions. New customers receive a bonus introductory rate for the first four months on balances up to $250,000, after which the account reverts to the standard variable rate. It suits savers who want simplicity or who can't guarantee growing their balance each month.

Notice Saver is designed for savers who don't need instant access to their funds. You choose a notice period (31, 60, or 90 days) — longer notice periods earn higher rates. It suits money you're parking rather than actively contributing to.

PurposeSaver is a lower-rate account suited to goal-based savings rather than maximising returns.

Rabobank operates online only for savings customers — accounts are opened and managed through the Rabobank Online Savings app or website, with phone support available. Rabobank Australia Limited is an authorised deposit-taking institution (ADI) regulated by APRA. Deposits are protected under the Financial Claims Scheme up to $250,000 per account holder per ADI.
