Opportunity Accounts

Pama’s locked Opportunity Accounts empower you to meet your financial goals through regular contributions made by you and your family. These funds can only be spent on items allowed by the account rules.

You can check your account balance at any time and earn Pama Points towards real-world rewards for making regular contributions through employer deductions, direct deposit or Centrepay.

It will really help having READY and SET Opportunity Accounts, which will allow me to manage my money better. When my kids need anything for school, I will be able to pay the account straight away.

I can quickly see the balance of my children’s accounts and watching the balances grow encourages me to keep going with my contributions!

I opened up new Pama Opportunity Accounts so I don't have to stress when I have to pay for my boys' sporting or educational needs. This allows me to save for the things they need and access the funds when required.

I have been able to redeem my points for a $100 reward towards the cost of electricity which allowed me to use my money for other needs. Pama Points are rewarding!

I like that Pama allows me to see my children's Opportunity Account balances from anywhere and whether I need to increase my contributions to cover the cost of school and sport.
