An Australian bank account is a must for all working holiday-makers / work & travelers
We’ll tell you how you get to an Australian account to park hard-earned Australian dollars.
These are the four biggest banks in Australia:
ANZ [Australia and New Zealand Banking Group]
NAB [National Australian Bank]
Of course, there are plenty smaller banks but these four have the most ATMs in the country. So it’s smart just to go with one of these banks.
WESTPAC offers a bank account which is free of charge in the first year.
You can open it from overseas up to twelve months prior to your arrival. So you won’t need to state an Australian address. The account comes with a debit credit card and you also can have an additional savings account.
