Questions


Here are the top 6 questions we get asked about our Military Rewards Account. Can’t see your question? Read the full set of FAQs here

When does the cash back amount appear in my account?
Cash back on Visa payWave transactions will be credited on a monthly basis and are paid in arrears. This means, you'll receive cash back at the beginning of the month (eg February) for any eligible transactions incurred during the previous calendar month (eg January).

What kinds of transactions are eligible for the 1% cash back*?  
You will receive 1% cash back* on all Visa payWave purchases under $100 (such as groceries, petrol, clothing, entertainment and transport) when you deposit $2,000* or more per month from an external source, into your Military Rewards Account.

How does the cents gifting program work? 
Each month, Australian Military Bank will transfer your ‘spare change’ (i.e. the cents on your account balance up to 0.99c) to a Defence related charity selected by you. Australian Military Bank will then match, dollar-for-dollar, the money donated each month and contribute this directly to the specified charities. 

What charities can a member choose from?  
You can choose to donate their ‘spare change’ to one of the following organisations: 

  • Mates for Mates 
  • Legacy 
  • Soldier On 
  • RSL LifeCare 

Alternatively, you can donate your ‘spare change’ equally across all four worthy organisations
