Managing your savings account

Our savings accounts can be managed in our Relationship Centres or by post. Existing members can register for SBS Online and manage their accounts there.

If you have existing savings or mortgage accounts, you can register to manage them online. SBS Online lets you safely and securely make transactions on your savings account(s) and view your recent mortgage transactions online. For more information, check out our FAQ page.
