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 upgraded our overseas Visa transaction details to list the purchase and transaction fee as separate items on member statements to comply with the ePayments Code. This fee applies when you use your Visa card for purchases in currencies other than Australian Dollars (AUD).
The 3% international transaction fee will now be shown as a separate line item on your statement, instead of being combined with the purchase amount. This is not a new fee, just a change in how it’s displayed on your statement for greater clarity.
If you have any questions, please call us on 1300 36 2000.

It's alarming to hear in the media that Australians lose over $3 billion annually to scams through various methods like emails, calls, texts, and social media.
They adopt tactics such as phishing and identity theft, making it a priority for everyone to stay watchful.
Here's a guide to help you stay alert and protect yourself from scams and fraud.
VerifyVerify the legitimacy of anyone contacting you before sharing personal information or making financial transactions. Be cautious of unexpected messages or calls, pressuring you to act quickly or share sensitive details. Do not click on links in messages or emails.
Beware of unsolicited offers Whether it's a lottery win, an inheritance from an unknown relative, or a lucrative investment opportunity, be cautious and confirm the validity of such claims before proceeding.
Monitor your accounts regularly Check your bank accounts and credit report for any unauthorized activity. Immediately report any suspicious transactions for inconsistencies to your financial institution or appropriate authorities.
Install security software Install antivirus and anti-malware software on your devices Keep your software updated to guard against the latest security vulnerabilities.
Trust your Instincts If something feels off or too good to be true, it probably is. Research and consult family or friends before making decisions if something seems suspicious or too good to be true.
If you have fallen victim of a scam or suspect someone has gained access to your personal information, contact Unity Bank immediately on 1300 36 2000. You can also report a scam through the Scam Watch website and find additional information on scams and how to protect yourself.
