What is the second last banking day?

On your NAB Reward Saver account, you can earn bonus interest when you make at least one deposit on or before the second last banking day of the month and no withdrawals.

How to work out the second last banking day of the month

A banking day is a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or Australia-wide public holiday. The date for the second last banking day will vary each month.

In our example, 27 June is the second last banking day of the month. So bonus interest will be earned if that month’s deposit is made on or before 27 June (and no withdrawals are made).

The table below shows the second last banking day of the month for 2025. This is the date your NAB Reward Saver account will need to receive a deposit by to receive the bonus interest.

How Jess earned bonus interest on her NAB Reward Saver

In this example, Jess made a deposit into her NAB Reward Saver on 10 June and didn’t make any withdrawals that month, so she earned bonus interest.

For peace of mind, Jess decided to set up a recurring payment to automatically deposit money into her NAB Reward Saver, so that she’d never forget to make a monthly deposit.

If Jess ever has an unexpected expense and needs to withdraw from her NAB Reward Saver, she can – it just means that she won’t receive bonus interest for that month, but she can earn the base interest.
