An offset account is a transaction account linked to your home loan. It can help you reduce the amount of interest you pay on your home loan by “offsetting” the balance in the offset account from your loan amount. This means you’ll only be charged interest on the difference between your loan balance and offset account balance. You can use the funds in your offset account for day-to-day transactions, and because your loan interest is calculated daily, having more money in your offset on any given day results in less interest paid. For example, if you maintain $50,000 in your offset account for the month and your loan is $500,000, you’ll only pay interest on $450,000 (instead of the full $500,000).
It’s worth keeping in mind that for interest only loans, you may see this benefit in reduced minimum repayments on your loan. But for principal and interest loans, maintaining a balance in your offset account won’t reduce your repayments. Instead, you may see this benefit in a reduced loan term as less interest is debited from your loan balance each month, enabling you to pay off your loan off faster.
Redraw
Draw on your own surplus or advance funds. You can do this for free via the app or Internet Banking (min $500). Just move funds from your loan to your transaction account.

You can split any home loan (except Kickstarter), anyway you like. Usually customers may split 50% variable and 50% fixed, remember the choice is yours and needs to suit your needs. Keep in mind you can split a loan up to 4 different ways.
Split loans are part fixed and part variable. They’ll give you the best of both worlds and there's no limit to the way you split the loan (50/50 or 20/80 etc).
A variable interest rate will rise and fall with the market over time, so your payments may vary from month to month or year to year. While this might make budgeting harder, you’ll have the flexibility to repay your loan faster (or switch to a different one).
A fixed interest rate stays the same for the chosen term (we offer 1, 2, 3, or 5 year fixed rate terms), so you’ll always know exactly how much you’ll pay during the fixed rate loan term each month. While this adds extra security, you won’t have the option to switch to a better rate and you won’t have access to redraw or offset facilities while on your fixed rate term. On a fixed interest rate loan you can make up to $10,000 of additional repayments per year, anything above that, or an early loan pay out, will result in a break cost fee (refer to the Loan Fee Schedule under ‘break cost fee’ for more details).

Do your homework
It’s always worth looking beyond a great rate to the whole package. You might need extra flexibility - like the ability to pause your repayments for example - so we’d recommend speaking to us before you make any decisions.
Make sure you have these available when you apply for a loan:
Once everything is signed and returned it usually takes 5 business days to approve a new home loan.
You’ll usually get pre-approval in 1 business day.
Our borrowing power calculator will help you understand how much you’ll be able to borrow. For a rough idea, start by working out your borrowing power and how much (if any) equity you have in an existing property. Remember that you won’t be able to borrow more than 90% of the value of your house, and borrowing more than 80% will lead to extra costs (like Lender’s Mortgage Insurance). Refer to Loan Fee Schedule for more information.
It’s worth having a quick chat with us. We’ll be able to tell you how much you can borrow, help you structure your loan correctly, and make sure you’re getting the best value.
Our borrowing power calculator is a good place to start.

The Merchant or Payment Initiator sets up your ‘Payment Agreement’ through what’s called a Mandate Management Service, with you then authorising your Payment Agreement in your internet banking. . This is where you authorise how much, and when, you will pay for goods or services. It can be for recurring or one-off payments. You can also suspend or cancel your Payment Agreement at any time through your internet banking or by contacting us. If you suspend or cancel your Payment Agreement you must consider whether doing so may breach the terms of your agreement with the Merchant or Payment Initiator. We suggest you understand the consequences of pausing or cancelling a Payment Agreement before doing so. A Payment Agreement may also be paused, resumed or cancelled by a Merchant or Payment Initiator. We will notify you via SMS or email if this occurs.
Before the Payment Agreement takes effect, it will appear in your Australian Unity internet banking portal for your authorisation. Once you authorise the Payment Agreement, the Merchant or Payment Initiator will then be able to debit your Australian Unity Bank account according to the terms that you have agreed.
A Payment Agreement is the agreement that records the authorised payment terms between you and the Merchant or Payment Initiator.
It includes the payment terms that collectively make up the Payment Agreement, including who the payee or payment initiator is, the payment amount, how often payments may be debited from your Australian Unity Bank account, the date on which the first/last payment may be debited, a description of the agreement, and the first and last date that the agreement may be used for initiating payments.
Once you have authorised your Payment Agreements, you can manage your Payment Agreements by following these steps:

How is my default card determined in Samsung Pay?
There is not a default card in Samsung Pay. When you open the app or activate the Simple Pay feature by swiping up from the Home Key on supported screens, the first card displayed is either the last card you registered or the last card you viewed or used.
You should contact us straight away on the following number at Australian Unity: 1300 790 740 (Monday to Friday: 8:30 am to 5:30 pm AEST/AEDT) so the lost or stolen card can be cancelled and no further purchases made.
You should also delete the lost or stolen card from Samsung Pay.
1. Open Samsung Pay and select the card you want to delete.
2. Tap Delete card from the More menu.
3. Confirm deletion by verifying with your fingerprint.
And if you have the Mobile Banking app, you can manage your lost or stolen card by selecting ‘manage cards’ then swipe to the card lost or stolen and select card as either ‘lost or stolen’.
The Fraud Monitoring Team is here 24/7
If you have any problems with your card (especially if you lose it, or it gets stolen) call our Fraud Monitoring Team as soon as possible on +61 2 8299 9534
If your device is lost or stolen, you can use Samsung’s Find My Mobile service to remotely Lock or Wipe your device (also Locking or Wiping Samsung Pay and all the payment cards registered in it).
If you just want to suspend your Australian Unity Visa debit or credit card temporarily, login to Samsung Find My Mobile service and suspend your card. Please note your physical Australian Unity Visa debit or credit card can continue to be used.
This applies to credit cards. Your closing balance is how much you owe on your account at the end of each calendar month.
The Minimum Monthly Payment for that month will be the greater of:
a) 3% (rounded up to the nearest dollar) of the closing balance (excluding any overdue amount) or;
b) $25, or if that closing balance is $26 or less, that closing balance.
If your Account is overdue or exceeds the credit limit it will be this amount if greater than a) and b) above.
To avoid late payment fee, you’ll need to make a minimum payment as noted on your statement, which is calculated as explained above.
