Frequently Asked Questions:

Depositor Compensation Scheme

From 1 July 2025, the New Zealand Government’s Depositor Compensation Scheme (DCS) will protect up to $100,000 per eligible depositor, per licensed bank.

This protection applies whether you hold a term deposit directly with a bank or through InvestNow.

Important to note:

The $100,000 limit is per customer, per bank, for example, if you hold $100,000 directly with BNZ and $50,000 with BNZ via InvestNow, your total DCS cover with BNZ remains capped at $100,000 (not $150,000).
Different banks are covered separately. For example, $100,000 with BNZ and $100,000 with ANZ would both be covered in full.

For more details about how the scheme works and the accounts covered, please visit the Reserve Bank of New Zealand’s website.

What term options are there?

1 month, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month, 1 year, 18 month, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years and 5 years.

When does the interest get paid?

Currently, we offer interest at maturity, unless the Term Deposit is for a term of 2 years or longer, where interest will be paid either monthly, quarterly, or annually depending on the bank.

What are the rollover options?

At maturity, you have the options to choose;

Not to rollover, at which time the principle and net interest will be credited to your InvestNow Transaction Account
Only the principal to roll over, with the net interest credited to your InvestNow Transaction Account
Principal and net interest roll over

You will receive notification by email, five days prior to the maturity date of your Term Deposit, advising that you can amend your rollover preferences right up to the day before your Term Deposit is due to mature/roll over.

What are the cut-off & processing times?

Term deposit orders are processed once a day – they are sent to each bank at 12pm each working day (no orders are processed during weekends or national public holidays).

Can I break a term deposit?

Each bank has their own terms & conditions for accepting and processing any break request – you can find those details here. Break requests will be handled directly between you, us and the relevant bank. If you wish to raise a break request please contact us here or email us at contact@investnow.co.nz
