#Interest rate is a variable rate made up of a Base Rate plus a Bonus Interest Rate and is subject to change at any time without notice. A Bonus Interest variable rate will only be paid if Bonus Criteria are met in the previous month. Bonus Criteria will be met where a minimum of $200 is credited to the linked Day2Day Plus Account in the prior month. The minimum amount does not include amounts transferred from another one of your BOQ Accounts. The variable Base Rate applies to balances over $250,000. The variable Base Rate always applies in the first month after opening an account. In the first month, Bonus Criteria on the transaction account is measured from the time the Fast Track Starter Account is opened, not the full calendar month even if the transaction account was already existing. Interest is calculated on a stepped basis and paid monthly on the first day of the following month. If Bonus Criteria conditions are not met the variable Base Rate only will apply.
