Reinvesting the full amount of your term deposit at maturity in the BNZ app

You can change what happens to your term deposit at maturity in the BNZ app and Internet Banking^. 

When you’re more than 14 days away from your maturity date, you can set up to reinvest, or choose to be paid out the full amount at maturity. If you’re setting up to reinvest, you’ll be able to select a term but you won’t see the interest rates yet^. 

When you’re within 14 days of your maturity date, you may be able to lock in a special interest rate through the BNZ app or Internet Banking^. Special interest rates are available for selected terms only. You can also increase or decrease the amount you reinvest. 

You’ll have the flexibility to come back and change what happens at maturity as often as you like, right up to the business day before your term deposit matures.
