Returns paid at maturity
For terms less than 12 months, returns are paid in full at the end of the term (unless the rate of return relates to a monthly income option). You can also elect to have returns paid at maturity for terms 12 months or longer.

Monthly income option
For terms of six months or longer you can choose to have returns paid monthly into your nominated bank account. This regular income stream can be ideal if you need to supplement other income such as NZ Superannuation.

Compounding returns and regular return payments
For terms 12 months or longer, you can choose to have returns paid every three (quarterly), six or 12 months. The default payment frequency is quarterly. Returns can be compounded (added automatically to your original investment) which allows you to earn ‘returns on your returns’, meaning your investment grows at a faster rate than if returns were paid out during the course of the investment or paid in full at maturity. Alternatively, you can choose to have returns paid separately into any New Zealand bank account which allows you to receive a periodic income stream that is less frequent than our monthly income option.
