Merger Confirmed
I am delighted to advise that our members have voted overwhelmingly in favour of a merger with G&C Mutual Bank.
A vote of 93% in favour from our membership is a resounding endorsement of this unique merger of equals.
On behalf of the Unity Bank Board and myself, thank you for your confidence and support.
What happens next?
Now that the merger is formally approved, preparations are well underway for the integration of banking systems onto the one platform on the 7th of March 2025.
For some members this may mean some one-off changes to your banking from that date, and these details will be communicated to you directly in the weeks prior to the 7th of March, along with supporting information to assist you with the transition.
There is nothing you need to do until then.
In the meantime, the merger page on our website will be regularly updated with information about the progress and next steps plus the help available to you to assist with the transition.

We have recently updated our Account & Access Facility Conditions of Use as a result of changes to the minimum age requirements of Apple Pay users.
Effective 15 March 2024
Section 37.2 Digital Wallet Services now states that if you are under the age of 13, Apple Pay is not available, and you are unable to add a card in the Apple Wallet.
Our latest Account & Access Facility Conditions of Use can be found here. If you would like to discuss any of these changes, please contact us on 1300 36 2000 8:00 am to 7:00 pm AEST, Monday to Friday.
From the 1st of January 2024 we are changing the way we notify Members of Interest rate changes affecting Overdraft and Credit card products.
Currently, we publish an advertisement in a national newspaper advising our members of the changes to our existing Overdraft and Credit card products. From the 1st of January 2024 we will no longer be publishing an advert in the national newspaper, instead when a rate change for these products occurs, we will publish a notice to the latest news section of our website. We believe this change will improve our rate change process and this notice will be more visible and accessible to our members.
