How do I add funds to Earnr? Once your account is open and verified, you’re ready to add funds and start earning interest. To add funds to one of your Earnr Accounts: - Log into the Earnr app or Earnr online - Select Add Funds on the home page in the Earnr app, or the sidebar in Earnr online (you can also select Add Funds on the Transfers screen) - Select the account you're adding funds to, enter the amount, check and confirm - You'll be presented with instructions on where to send funds to - Open your banking app and make the transfer according to the details in the Earnr App (take extra care checking the details) When will my funds arrive? Generally your funds will reach Earnr on the same day, or the next business day. Exactly when depends on the payment method used by your bank, and depending on the payment method, how your bank batches payments and what time you transfer the funds. If your bank allows you to choose the payment type, the quickest way to get your funds to Earnr is to select 'Osko' as the payment type. If your bank doesn't allow you to choose the payment type (and doesn't send them via Osko behind the scenes) they'll generally reach Earnr late in the evening on the day you sent them or the next business day (if you've sent them after 5pm Sydney time). When will I start earning interest? Generally if your funds appear at Earnr before 2pm Sydney time, they'll be cleared and you'll start earning interest that day. If they appear after 2pm, you'll start earning interest the next business day. It's over one business day, why can't I see my funds? This may be due to one of the following: - Your bank may be taking longer than usual to process the transfer - this can occur on your first transfer to Earnr or due to an issue with your bank. - A whole business day hasn't passed - if you've sent the funds after 5pm or on the weekend or a public holiday, make sure a whole business day has passed. - Our systems and processes have flagged the need for more information relating to your account or transaction - expect to hear from us and see more information. - You entered incorrect account details for Earnr sending funds - in this case your funds will generally bounce back to your account within 2 business days. If it’s been more than one whole business day and your funds still haven’t appeared, get in touch with us via support@earnr.com.au or 1300 332 062. What if I send funds to Earnr but forget to specify what account I want them in? In this case, our operations team will make contact with you. Once you're verified we'll record your instruction, and apply them to your preferred account. If we can't contact you within 1 business day of the receipt of your funds and your account is verified, your funds will be added to your Earnr Everyday account.

What information is included in an Annual Statement? You can produce an annual statement per account holder for multiple financial years.

Yes. After 30 June, Earnr reports the interest it paid to the ATO in an Annual Investment Income Report. This typically reaches the ATO by the end of July. For individuals, it will generally show up in your tax return automatically. If the account is held by an SMSF or trust, the SMSF or trust still needs to include the income in its own tax return.

Earnr Everyday and Earnr Notice Accounts Interest is calculated daily according to the closing balance on the day, accrues throughout the month, and is paid on the last day of the month. Earnr Everyday and Earnr Notice Accounts are tiered rate accounts, meaning a different interest rate may apply for the balance you have within each tier. The accrued interest calculation for each balance portion on a day, is as follows: Closing balance portion for the day x (applicable tier interest rate / 365 days) = interest accrued on that day. The interest accrued on each balance portion is added up, to arrive at the total interest accrued on the day. Below is a worked example for the daily accrued interest on a Notice Account (rates are for calculation purposes, see the current rates): $800,000 Closing Balance in a 90 Day Notice Account Rate on first $250,000: 6.50% p.a Rate from $250,000 to $750,000: 6.30% p.a Rate above $750,000: 3.85% p.a Daily Interest Accrued is ($250,000 x 6.50% / 365) + ($500,000 x 6.30% / 365) + ($50,000 x 3.85% / 365) = $136.09 interest accrued on that day Earnr Terms Interest is calculated daily according to the closing balance on the day. For Terms with interest paid monthly - interest accrues daily throughout the month, is paid on the last day of the month, and automatically transferred to your Earnr Everyday Account. For Terms with interest paid at maturity - interest is accrued daily throughout the term, is paid on the maturity date, and is automatically transferred to your Earnr Everyday Account. Earnr Terms have one rate for the total balance, and that rate is locked for the whole term. The daily interest calculation for a term is as follows: Closing balance x (interest rate on the term / 365 days) = interest accrued on that day. Below is a worked example (the rate is for calculation purposes, see the current rates): $800,000 12 Month Term at 7.00% p.a Daily Interest Accrued = 800,000 x 7.00% / 365 = $153.42 interest accrued per day

Why have I been asked to supply additional information? Occasionally, we may need to ask for additional information as part of our Enhanced Customer Due Diligence Program or our Fraud and Security Monitoring Systems. These systems and programs safeguard our operations and platforms to help keep Earnr safe for our customers. Being asked for extra information doesn’t necessarily mean there’s a problem - it simply means either our automated systems or manual audit procedures have identified the need for more information in order to continue offering our services. You may be asked for additional information: - As part of your account opening - After your account has been opened - If you're an existing customer with funds The additional information may relate to: - Your source of wealth and funds (or of a beneficial owner) - The nature and patterns of your transactions - Information required to re-identify you You should be aware that if we are unable to gather the information required or if we are not satisfied with the quality of the information received, we may not be able to continue offering our services, and we may be required to return any funds you have standing with Earnr to your connected bank. If you are not happy with an outcome from us following a request for additional information, you're able to provide feedback under our dispute resolution procedures as outlined in our Financial Services Guide.

What is a custodian? A custodian is an independent institution that holds money and assets on trust for customers, keeping them separate from the assets of another institution. How does the custodian help keep my money safe? At Earnr, your assets don’t sit with us directly. They're held by Sandhurst Trustees, a subsidiary of Bendigo and Adelaide Bank. Their job is to: - Hold your funds safely in trust accounts and control all funds movements - Ensure separation from Earnr’s company operating accounts - Provide oversight to make sure your funds are managed in accordance with the PDS This structure adds an important layer of independent protection for our customers. In the event anything were to happen to Earnr or the responsible entity for Earnr, your investments with Earnr will not be lost as they are held on trust for you by the custodian. The independent custodian would take control of Earnr's assets, and act in the best interests of the members to manage or sell the assets and return funds to the members of Earnr.

Banks make it difficult to understand what your interest rate actually is. An advertised interest rate on an account might sound great, but what really matters is - what rate you're actually getting. Earnr makes it easy to see the actual interest rate you're getting on each account, and your average rate across all your accounts. Viewing the average rate on each account type This is really helpful when optimising your savings - as it allows you to easily compare the current average rate you're getting for each account type. Head to 'Accounts' in the Earnr App or log into Earnr Online. Here, you'll see how your money is split between the different account types, and, the current average interest rate in each account type. For example, the 30 Day Notice Account pays a different rate on the first $250k than the next $500k. If you had $300k in the notice account, the rate you'd see on this page is the actual weighted average rate for the full $300k. Viewing your average rate across all accounts In the summary area at top of the 'Accounts' page, next to your total balance, you'll see Average Rate. This is the weighted average return across all the accounts held by the account holder (which is shown at the very top of the page). If you have more than one legal account, you can toggle each legal account in the top menu to see the account types and all-in rates for each legal account. For example, you could switch between your individual and SMSF accounts. What does the average rate on the home page represent? When you open the Earnr App or log into Earnr Online - you'll land on the Earnr Home page. Here, along with the Total Balance across all the Earnr accounts you have access to, you'll find 'Average Rate'. This is the current weighted average interest rate across all the accounts you have access to. Using the example above, it's the combined current average rate for your individual and SMSF accounts.

At Earnr, your money is managed with the same principles our team applied while overseeing balance sheets at Australia’s largest banks. With decades of experience in funding, credit, liquidity, and risk management, we’ve built Earnr on a framework designed to put customer safety first. How your money is backed Every dollar of customer funds is supported by: - Institutional bank deposits with Australia’s biggest banks - A diversified pool of low-risk loans secured against Australian property - Independent custodianship with Bendigo and Adelaide Bank to safeguard assets on behalf of customers This structure is similar to a traditional bank balance sheet, where funds are placed with other banks and the Reserve Bank of Australia, and loans are made to households. Why Earnr is conservative Earnr is designed specifically to provide savers with optimised returns while keeping risk low: - Lower average loan-to-valuation ratio (LVR): More security backing each loan compared to the Australian mortgage market. - Shorter loan terms: Reduced exposure to long-term property market swings. - Significant security buffer: For every $1 of customer funds, there is currently $2.01 of institutional bank deposits and secured Australian property behind it. More information Earnr is a licensed and ASIC regulated non-bank. That means your money is backed by the assets described above, rather than the government financial claims scheme. Before opening an account, we encourage all customers to read the Earnr Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) and understand the risks and features of the product.

Just like adding funds to your account, withdrawals are fast and secure thanks to Earnr’s technology and payments capability. How do I withdraw funds from Earnr to my linked bank account? Transfers to your linked bank account can only be made from the Earnr Everyday Account. If you're wanting to withdraw funds from a Notice Account or a Term Account - you'll first need to make a transfer from that account to your Everyday Account. Make sure you take any notice dates into consideration. Once the funds are in your Everyday Account you can then transfer them to your linked bank account. See Transferring funds between accounts if you need help. To transfer funds from your Everyday Account to your linked bank account: - Make sure you have a stable internet or mobile connection - Open the Earnr App or log into Earnr Online - Select Transfers - Select Everyday Account under 'From' and your linked bank account under 'To' - Enter the amount you wish to withdraw - Enter or complete any multi-factor authentication we require, and then confirm How long does a transfer from my Everyday Account take to arrive in my linked bank account? If you make transfer to your linked bank account before 2pm (Sydney time) on a business day, it will be processed on the same day. You'll generally see the funds that evening but depending on your bank they may not be visible until the following business day. If you make transfer after 2pm (Sydney time), it will be processed on the next business day. Will transfers to my linked bank account be processed on the weekend or a public holiday? No, they will be processed on the next business day. Can I schedule a transfer from my Everyday Account to my linked bank? Transfers from your Notice Accounts and Term Accounts will be scheduled in accordance with the notice period or next available maturity date for term accounts. Transfers from your Everyday Account can't be scheduled - please make your transfer request on the desired day. Can I cancel a transfer? You can cancel scheduled transfers from your Notice Accounts and Term Accounts - head to Transfers, then Scheduled Transfers and follow the prompts. Transfers from your Everyday Account can't be scheduled - so you can't cancel them, they happen on the day or next business day.

If you don't supply a valid TFN, we may be required to withhold part of your interest earnings.

Interest earnings withheld by Earnr can be paid to you, if you supply a valid TFN. Interest withheld during the current financial year: - Interest withheld on any account or term will instantly be credited to your Earnr Everyday account - when you add a valid TFN in the Earnr App or by logging into Earnr online. - Here's how to add your TFN and get withheld interest instantly credited. Interest withheld for previous financial years: - We're unable to credit interest withheld in a previous financial year, as it will have been paid to the ATO in accordance with our regulatory obligations. - However you can claim interest withheld back from the ATO in your annual tax return (or for an earlier financial year by making an amendment to the return you submitted for that year). - To find out how much interest we've withheld in a previous financial year head to Interest Summary or Annual Tax Statements in the Earnr App or by logging into Earnr Online.
