Information for joint applicants

By completing this online joint account application all account holders agree that each account holder may operate the account with direct access to the funds in the account.

When you apply for a joint account online, each account holder will have direct access to the funds in the account, through digital channels like NAB Internet Banking and the NAB app, with a debit card or in a branch. This means each account holder can access the account individually to withdraw or deposit money separately from the other account holder.

If you want both account holders to jointly operate the account – meaning that both need to give permission for deposits and withdrawals – you’ll need to come into a branch to arrange this. Don’t apply online.

If your situation changes and you want to change how both people access the money, please visit a branch. Refer to important information for operating a joint account to help you make the best choice for your circumstances.
