Help & support
An Everyday Offset is a transaction account linked to your eligible Standard Variable Rate home loan. Any money you put into your Everyday Offset reduces the balance on which we charge interest. This means you’ll only be paying interest on the difference.
Your Everyday Offset is a separate account linked to your eligible Standard Variable Rate home loan, while redraw is a feature available for some eligible variable rate home loans. Both can help:
Redraw allows you to withdraw money you've contributed towards your home loan over and above your minimum required repayment. The money in your redraw account may reduce over the life of your loan so that, by the end of your agreed loan term, both your loan balance and the available redraw will be zero.
If you’re currently using a redraw facility to deposit money that you plan on using later, an Everyday Offset may be more suitable if you plan on using the money more regularly.
You can switch an eligible transaction account to an Everyday Offset online with your eligible CommBank Standard Variable Rate home loan
Click on ‘Switch account to offset’
100% of the money in your Everyday Offset will be deducted from your home loan balance before interest is charged.
The more money you have in your Everyday Offset, the less interest you’ll pay on your home loan.
Paying less interest over time could also reduce the time it takes to pay off your loan, as a larger portion of your repayments will go towards paying off the principal.
