Product overview
An Offset Account offers the convenience of an everyday transaction account with the bonus of reducing the amount of interest you pay on your home loan. When linked to your eligible home loan, it reduces the balance of the loan that you pay interest on, by what savings you have in the account.
The interest rate used to calculate the offset benefit is the same as the interest rate on the linked loan.
Here’s how it works:
If your home loan balance is $350,000 and your linked Offset Account balance is $10,000, you’re charged home loan interest based on $340,000. Offset Accounts can be linked to any People’s Choice Standard Variable Home Loan or Variable Home Loan Package.
