Why save with Heartland?
Got questions?
- Can I open an account online?
-
Yes - new customers can open a YouChoose, Notice Saver, or Direct Call Account, online or by downloading the Heartland Mobile App.
Existing customers can open accounts and Term Deposits by logging in to Heartland Digital or the Heartland Mobile App. - Is my deposit Government guaranteed?
- No, the New Zealand Government does not guarantee deposits made by customers with any of the banks in New Zealand.
- Can I choose the income tax rate that applies to my savings account?
-
Yes. An individual, company or trust can specify the income tax rate at which tax is deducted from the credit interest paid on their savings accounts (including the new 39% top rate of income tax). If you have not told us which tax rate to apply, we will generally apply the default rate of 33% to individuals and trusts and 28% to companies. However we have to apply a tax rate of 45% if we do not have your IRD number (even if you choose a lower rate). Further details can be found at www.ird.govt.nz/income-tax/withholding-taxes/resident-withholding-tax-rwt/using-the-right-rwt-tax-rate
