Cash management made easy

Business First OnCall is a cash management account that’s held jointly with a transaction account.
You can access your funds when you need, while still earning interest. It’s a great way to save for tax payments and other expenses.

Earn competitive interest

Earn competitive interest on money you put aside for tax payments, equipment purchases, or other future expenses.

Interest is calculated daily and paid monthly, so your money will be working harder while it’s waiting. Plus, there are no transaction and monthly base fees.^

Easy access to funds

Making payments is easy. Move funds from your Business First OnCall account to your everyday transaction account through Internet Banking, telephone banking, ATMs or at any BNZ branch.

We recommend that you don’t use Business First OnCall for regular payments like automatic payments or direct debits. These payments should be set up using a transaction account, like MyMoney for Business or Business First Transact.
