Joint Bank Account
A joint bank account can be either a transaction or savings account held by multiple account holders who can all deposit and withdraw funds.
This type of account is a convenient way of pooling your money and may suit individuals in long term relationships, couples who share financial obligations and savings partners saving toward a mutual financial goal. A joint bank account can also be held in more than just two people’s names.
How to open a joint bank account online?
Opening a joint account is easy and only takes 5 minutes online. Simply select that you'd like to open it as a joint account and have the other person's details handy to add when prompted.
Before you open a joint account, it's a good idea for everyone on the account to be across the terms and conditions, any limits on deposits and withdrawals, and any fees that apply. Everyone named on a joint account can access the funds, and you can set who's allowed to do what, like who can make changes to the account.
