Make your money work for you
Reduce the interest calculated on your eligible AMP Bank home loan by depositing your regular income and earnings into an everyday banking offset deposit account.
Pay less interest on your home loan
Link up to 10 offset deposit accounts. The combined funds are offset against your home loan balance each day, meaning you only pay interest on the remaining portion of your loan.
Access your money when you need it
Your savings will help reduce interest calculated, but you can still use the funds in your deposit accounts when you need to. Manage your account online, via My AMP app, or by phone banking.

How does it work?
Use all your deposited funds to reduce your interest repayments. See how you can potentially save years and thousands of dollars of loan repayments with the loan offset calculator. Add your regular deposits like salary, bonuses or other income on the extra repayments tab to view how these funds work to offset the outstanding balance of your loan.
The daily combined value of the funds in your deposit accounts is offset against your home loan amount. This means interest is calculated on a lower amount than your actual loan.
An example of how it works2
Home Loan balance: $400,000
Offset Deposit Account 1 balance: $30,000
Offset Deposit Account 2 balance: $45,000
You will only pay interest on: $325,000
How much could I save?
If you have a 30 year home loan, with a consistent balance of $75,000 in your Offset Deposit Account and a constant rate of 5% pa:
Estimate of interest saved: $279,147
Estimate of time saved on your loan: 10 years
Rates & fees
All money in your Offset Deposit Accounts will offset your home loan. This could save you thousands of dollars in interest.
Any offset balance above your loan balance does not accrue interest. The AMP Offset Deposit Account does not have monthly fees unless linked to an AMP Basic home loan. In this case, there is a $6 monthly account management fee.
See the Deposit product fees and charges guide for more details, including fees for special services.

How to link an Offset Deposit Account to my home loan
Linking an Offset Deposit Account to an eligible loan account is only completed on request. We do not automatically link your Offset Deposit Account to your eligible loan account.
For example, if you come to the end of a fixed rate period and your loan converts to an eligible variable interest rate loan, you must call us on 13 30 30 to link or open an Offset Deposit Account.
If an Offset Deposit Account is linked to a home loan that is not eligible, no offset benefit will apply, and the product name will change to Unlinked Offset Deposit Account. All account access and operating terms and conditions remain unchanged.
How to apply
Whether you already have a home loan with AMP or you’re applying for a new one, make your repayments work harder using all your deposited funds to offset the cost of your interest.
