Kind of like the previous BoM deal, but better in every way!

$50 cashback after $50 spend, pick a item of your choosing and get it for free essentially.

Same deal available at Westpac and its subsidiaries - Not sure if you can stack across them:

Eligibility & Steps:

  • Be 18+ and not have held a Bank of Melbourne transaction account in the last 2 years.
  • Open a new Complete Freedom account (excludes Concession account) with a linked Visa Debit Card.
  • Add the Visa Debit Card to your mobile wallet (Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Samsung Pay).
  • Within 15 days of account opening, make in-person, contactless payments totaling $50 or more (settled, not pending).
  • Keep the account open for at least 60 days after the eligible payment.

Cashback Details:

$50 will be deposited into your account within 60 days of meeting the criteria.
Only one $50 payment per customer, even if multiple accounts are opened (paid to the first active account).

Exclusions:
Physical card transactions, ATM withdrawals, BPAY, EFTPOS cash-out, gambling transactions, or credit card payments are not eligible.

Duplicate offers removed from title and linked to in deal description.

      I dont think BoM has a referral system, I looked for them prior to posting this deal but didn't see any

    if i already/currently have st george and westpac, i still can get this right? they seems to be the same mob

  • Charlie Dont Surf on 03/08/2025 - 12:09

    Good deal.

    Already have a Westpac account. Which of the others gets the best offers from Shopback or are they typically grouped together?

      It’s either westpac and the others or westpac or the others 😆

  • Asti on 03/08/2025 - 12:28

    I think I'll get one to finally get shopback bonuses. Which would be the best one to get? Or are they all the same?

  • wwwboy on 03/08/2025 - 12:42

    I am currently overseas… would I be able to get the card and do an overseas transaction to qualify?

      Afair, westpac offers immediate digital visa on its app right after successful application.

    Can we still get this deal on the banks that I am not with, if I already have a bank account with just some of these banks?

    • mrfuku on 03/08/2025 - 13:28

      Its not clear, from what I can see they all call the account the Complete Freedom account, and T and Cs state you can't have had one in the last 2 years.

      They dont explicitly say you can't get it across them all

  • Windows7forever on 03/08/2025 - 13:47

    Thanks

    Anyone tried across different banks and see if one can get $50 from each different bank?

  • Stormulus on 03/08/2025 - 14:34

    The Bank SA terms and conditions only state that you must not have held a transaction account with Bank SA in the last two years. No mention of Complete Freedom accounts at all.

    You don’t need to go into the bank to open this? A few years ago you had to.

  • macr0hard on 03/08/2025 - 21:10

    Can you make multiple transactions totalling $50 or has to be in 1 transaction? I couldn't find the info on the T&Cs

  • mkowarkski on 04/08/2025 - 00:42

    Is there any fee for opening and keeping this account? I wonder I just get this $50 and close it or just keep it?

    I already have a Westpac and St George account, and when I open this BoM account, the application was refused and the screen said:

    “Sorry, we're unable to complete your request
    It looks like some of your details are already in our system under an existing account. If you'd like some help resolving this, you can visit a Bank of Melbourne branch.”

    • ARUN365 on 06/08/2025 - 12:00

      Hello @wwykath, yes with me also the same problem existed…. I only have St George bank account but when I tried BOM and BANKSA, it gave me the same error what you got….any help around this how to create the bank accounts with them…

  • jrvb42 on 06/08/2025 - 06:40

    If you are having trouble with the online application (it's telling you it can't open accounts online) and you're using Chrome, switch over to Edge or another browser.
    I tried several times with Chrome and incognito mode with a failure each time - switched to Edge and completed app successfully first attempt.
    Might have been a caching problem, who knows - my attitude is that should be handled by the programmers, not the customers - I never hold with tech support telling me to clear my cache - if your software detects errors, the program should clear it's own cookies and cache!
    Anyways, might help if you're on Chrome and stuck.

    • ARUN365 on 06/08/2025 - 12:04

      Did you manage to open all the different brand bank accounts with the Edge browser…..while creating the accounts when I was getting the error that your details already existed under our system, I tried with different email address and phone number for the other brand (DOB and other details were as it is) but still it doesn't help ….did you changed any of your details while signing up for all the bank accounts or you kept all the details same for all of them ….

      • jrvb42 on 06/08/2025 - 21:46

        Nope - same details - I did exactly the same thing on Edge as on Chrome.

  • McMaferMur on 06/08/2025 - 19:01

    anyone know if with BOM and SA, we can add the card to google wallet straight away after opening account without waiting for physical card? (westpac can, st george cannot)

      Signed up to BoM yesterday. Can confirm that you can't.

    Heads-up - DON'T OPEN THE ACCOUNT OUTSIDE BOM BUSINESS HOURS!

    Apparently (from a chat with BoM customer service via the app), if you open the account outside business hours, a card is not automatically generated, and you'll need to call a bwanker to get one issued or it'll never arrive!!! (If you opened your account and didn't have this prob, clearly I've just been told a porky pie by the cs rep)

    What rubbish is this? Fine, don't issue the card outside of business hours, but catch up next day.

    Also, there is nothing about this mentioned during application, nor afterwards. So, if you aren't proactive in chasing the card, it'll never be issued, and you can kiss any chance of spending within the 15 day window of opening the account.

    My response, lodge a complaint, withdraw the balance. Ignore the requirement to call a bwanker (and waste yet more time on hold) just to get a card that should have been issued automatically.

    Having now dealt with St George and BoM and suffered nonsense and time-wasting business practices with both, I'm beginning to understand why they have to lure new clients in with payments and cashback. But surely don't immediately annoy new clients to the point where they leave.
