How do I get ING's additional Savings Maximiser variable rate?

You're eligible for the additional variable rate on your nominated Savings Maximiser when you also have an Orange Everyday bank account and each month you do all of these things:

So if you hold an Orange Everyday account and continue to make the required $1,000+ deposit each month, make 5+ card purchases that are settled (and not at a 'pending status') each month, and grow the balance of the nominated Savings Maximiser account each month, you'll continue to get the Savings Maximiser additional variable rate every month.

You will receive the additional variable rate when you meet the criteria in the previous calendar month.

For example, If you meet all requirements in March, you'll receive the additional variable rate in April.

You can check your own eligibility status for the current and next month in the ING app. Please note that eligibility on the 1st of each month will show after approximately 6:00am AEST.

To check your eligibility for the additional variable rate: Select the account you have nominated to receive the bonus interest rate, and click on the interest icon.

You can change the Savings Maximiser account nominated to receive the bonus interest rate by logging in to online banking on the ING website.

Why did I not receive the additional Savings Maximiser variable rate?

You'll receive the standard variable rate for a month if you didn't meet one or more requirements in the previous calendar month.

For example, if you didn't meet the requirements in March, you'll receive the standard variable rate in April.

The standard variable rate applies for the month of April if you didn't do one or more of these things within March:

This just means that the balance must be higher at the end of the month than it was at the end of the previous month, excluding interest earned for the current month.

Even when eligible, the additional variable rate applies on one Savings Maximiser only on balances up to $100,000, so you'll receive the standard variable rate on any amounts above this.

To check your eligibility for the additional variable rate, select the account you have nominated to receive the bonus interest rate, and click on the interest icon.

Do I need to inform you I am travelling overseas?

Letting us know about your international travel helps us monitor your card for suspicious activity and may help prevent unnecessary blocks on overseas transactions.

You can do this in the ING app by following these steps:

  1. Log in to your ING app and tap More.
  2. Select Manage accounts, then select Travelling overseas.
  3. Select your departure date, return date, and travel destinations, then tap Continue.
  4. Review your details and tap Continue again.

If you are travelling for an extended period, it's a good idea to set this up just before you leave. If you are still overseas after 30 days, you will need to submit a new travel alert in the ING app to cover the next 30 days.

How do you calculate the interest on my Savings Maximiser?

Your interest is calculated daily on the closing balance and added to your account at the end of each month, so you earn interest on your interest. The formula we use is:

Daily closing balance x interest rate (as a percentage) / 365

Please note that differences in interest month to month, when no transactions have occurred on your account, is due to the number of days in each month i.e. March has 31 days and April has 30 days, therefore one day less interest is accrued.

Why do I need Security Codes?

Registration to receive a Security Code is for your added online banking protection and is required to conduct certain transactions.

How do I use Security Codes?

Once you're registered, every time you want to perform certain online banking transactions, you'll be prompted to request a Security Code. A Security Code will then be sent to your mobile phone via SMS. You'll be asked to verify the details in the SMS we send you against the transaction details entered on the screen and enter the Security Code in the secure online area within 5 minutes of receiving it. The only thing you have to remember is to keep your mobile phone handy when banking online.

What is a Security Code?

Security Codes provides you with an additional level of protection. When banking online your existing Client Number and Access Code already provide you with security. But because you can't be too safe when it comes to your information and money, to enable you to perform certain transactions online with even greater confidence we've introduced an additional level of security called Security Codes.

These are once-only codes sent to your mobile phone. Once received, you need to enter the Security Code in the secure online area within 5 minutes of receiving it every time you perform certain online transactions such as paying bills via BPAY for the first time or changing any of your contact details (address, phone number, etc). Expiring after 5 minutes, they help to ensure it is you (rather than a potential fraudster) who is performing the transaction.

Security Codes are a form of "two-factor authentication" designed to protect you against many types of online fraud such as phishing, Trojans and identity theft. Two-factor authentication is a process designed to verify two things - something you know and something you have. In the case of ING, we verify your Access Code (something you know) and your receipt of a Security Code sent to your registered mobile phone (something you have).

What indications suggest that a customer may be a foreign tax resident?

How do I find out if I am a tax resident of another country?

Different jurisdictions define tax residency in different ways - so it will depend on what country you are dealing with. There are some common criteria though.

If you're an individual (or a Controlling Person) you may be considered a foreign tax resident if you have a substantial connection with another country (or treat it as your permanent home), or if you have personal and economic activities or interests overseas.

When it comes to entities, tax residency will depend on where the entity (or its incorporation/organisation) is domiciled or effectively managed.

That said, even a temporary stay overseas can affect your tax residency - and it's also possible for an individual or entity to be considered a tax resident in more than one jurisdiction. If you're a government official, diplomat or in the military, you will generally be a tax resident in your home jurisdiction - however it will always come down to local regimes.

ING is not allowed to provide tax advice to help you determine your tax residency, so it's best to check specific conditions with the local government in the appropriate country or countries.

What is tax residency?

The definition of Tax Residency varies per country. ING is not responsible for determining a customers' Tax Residency and is not allowed to advise customers. It is the customer's responsibility to inform ING if they are a foreign tax resident. The general principles are as follows:

The foreign tax residency information is mandatory for the following type of parties:

If the customer does not comply or fails to respond to requests for information about their tax residency, ING must record the foreign tax residency based on CRS and FATCA indicia in ING's possession.

You can confirm your foreign tax details through your online banking. Here's how:

Can the Savings Accelerator be used for business purposes?

Please visit the Contact us page for our operating hours and contact numbers: https://www.ing.com.au/contact-us-landing.html.

How is the Financial Claims Scheme limit applied?

The Financial Claims Scheme (FCS) limit of $250,000 applies to the sum of an account holder's deposits under the one banking license.

Therefore, all deposits held by an account holder with a single banking institution must be added together towards the $250,000 FCS limit, and this includes accounts with any other banking businesses that the licenced banking institution may operate under a different trading name.

ING is a business name of ING Bank (Australia) Limited ABN 24 000 893 292 and all accounts held with this institution that also satisfy the requirements of the Prudential standard are protected under the scheme.

What information will I need to setup a BPAY?

You will need to provide details such as; Biller Code, Biller Name, CRN (Customer Reference number), and amount.

Additionally, you have the option to nickname the Biller and save into your address book for future use.

To help track your payments some Billers use variable Customer Reference Numbers (CRNs).

If you have a Biller with a variable CRN, we will only save the Biller Code.

You will need to refer to your current bill when making a payment to ensure the correct CRN is entered.

Why do I need a PayID?

There are a number of benefits to using a PayID, including:

How can I set up a PayTo payment agreement?

You can set up a PayTo payment agreement with your merchant. Once you've given them your Orange Everyday PayID or BSB and account number, they will send you a PayTo payment agreement which you can review and authorise in ING Online Banking on the ING website.

How can I make changes to my PayTo payment agreement?

Once you;ve authorised a PayTo payment agreement, you can pause, resume or cancel it, or change the account or Pay ID linked to it. The linked account can only be changed to another active Orange Everyday or to a PAYID linked to an active Orange Everyday.

To review and make changes to your payment agreement at any time:

  1. Login to Online Banking on the ING Website
  2. Click on the menu on the left side and click 'Manage accounts'
  3. Click 'Payment agreements'
  4. Select the Payment agreement
  5. Click More
  6. Select the relevant option.

If you wish to change the linked account associated to a PayTo payment agreement to a non-ING account, you will need to cancel the existing PayTo payment agreement and contact the merchant to set up a new PayTo payment agreement against the non-ING account.

For changes to the payment amount or frequency under a PayTo payment agreement, the merchant will need to make the change. They will then send you a PayTo payment agreement amendment request for your authorisation.

For any other changes to active PayTo agreements, you will need to contact the merchant. They'll send an update request for you to authorise or decline.

What happens if I pause or cancel a PayTo payment agreement?

If you pause or cancel a PayTo payment agreement, the merchant won't be able to deduct funds from your account under that agreement.

However, cancelling a payment agreement does not change any underlying contract you may have with a merchant. They may charge you a fee or you may be required to make payment in some other way.

What is a SWIFT?

SWIFT stands for Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications. Basically, it's a computer network that connects over 900 banks around the world enabling them to transfer money. ING is part of this network.

There is no fee for accepting deposits into your account with ING. However, due to ING not holding a "dealing authorisation" for foreign exchange, we are unable to accept funds in foreign currency directly from another country. To receive foreign currency funds from overseas, the funds require going through an intermediary/ corresponding bank within Australia. ING has no control on which bank the funds may go through and any fees that may be charged. Some banks charge a flat rate, some a percentage.

IMPORTANT

Arranging a SWIFT

To get funds deposited into your ING Orange Everyday, Savings Maximiser from an international bank using SWIFT, you'll need to provide the following:

If the bank asks for the 'Clearing code', this is equivalent to the BSB (923-100).

What is IBAN?

IBAN stands for International Bank Account Number. It's an international standard for numbering bank accounts, and was originally developed to improve the payment system in the EU. IBAN is not applicable to Australian accounts. If a Sender requests you to provide an IBAN, please provide the information noted above in “Arranging a SWIFT” instead.

What is a Bank Identifier Code (BIC)?

A Bank Identifier Code (or “BIC” for short, and also known as a “SWIFT CODE”) is an 8 to 11-character code that's used to identify a particular bank when you make an international transaction. ING Australia's BIC is INGBAU2S.

How can I make a cash deposit?

Orange Everyday customers can pop in to any Australia Post Bank@Post outlet with their Visa Debit Card to make deposits up to $3000 (Australia Post may refuse to deposit excessive coins or small denomination notes). Funds are cleared and available on the same business day.

ING does not accept cash deposits into the Savings Maximiser, Savings Accelerator or Personal Term Deposits. Customers can either transfer funds from their linked bank account or send a cheque directly to ING to be deposited.

What fees do you charge on an Orange Everyday account?

We get a lot of satisfaction from delivering better offers in banking. So we're happy we can offer you everyday banking without any monthly account keeping fees, as well as no ING fees on everyday transactions.

For not-so-everyday transactions, please see the Everyday Banking Fees and Limits schedule here: https://www.ing.com.au/pdf/Orange_Everyday_Fees_and_Limits_Schedule.pdf.

Option 1: Go to any Australia Post Bank@Post outlet with your debit card to make the transaction. Note: The customer name on your debit card must match the payee name on the cheque being deposited.

Instead, it will reduce your overall balance owing and instalment plan term.

If you have any regular payments set up using your old card number, simply contact the relevant organisations and provide them with your ING card number. Generally you can do this over the phone or online with the organisation.

Important things to know

How do you calculate the interest on my Savings Accelerator?

Interest is calculated daily, on the portion of your account balance in each balance tier, using the applicable rate for that balance tier. Depending on your account balance, this may mean more than one interest rate is applied to your account balance each day.

Please note, there may be differences in interest from month to month even when no transactions have occurred on your account, this is due to the difference in the number of days in each month i.e. March has 31 days and April has 30 days, therefore one day less interest is accrued.
