When you set up an Automatic Payment (AP) to buy Bonus Bonds using internet banking, Bonus Bonds will automatically be purchased at regular time intervals from your preferred account. You decide how often and how much.

APs are great for people who want to put money aside regularly as savings AND increase their chances of winning in the monthly Bonus Bonds draws. For example, if you set up an AP of $100 every month, you'll have 100 more chances to win $1 MILLION in each monthly prize draw as soon as each of those bonds are eligible. Plus over 12 months you'll top up an extra $1,200 towards your savings goal! Your Bonus Bonds are first eligible for the monthly prize draws when you have held them for one complete calendar month following their purchase date. A minimum purchase of $20 applies.

To get started, get saving and get in on the fun, select your bank from the list below, read the instructions, then log on to your internet banking. Please note that your bank may charge fees for setting up and making APs. A Bonus Bonds certificate will be automatically mailed to you every time an AP is made to purchase Bonus Bonds.

In all instances, you'll need the bondholder name and number (referred to as 'customer number' in some internet banking systems) handy, as you must include the bondholder number in the 'Reference' field in the 'Payee details' section in the required format.

You'll also be asked for a payee name and account number. To set up automatic payments for Bonus Bonds, you should use the following payee information:

Bonus Bonds account information
Name: Bonus Bonds Sales
Account Number: 11 8431 0998747 000
