"We decided to take up Yield to make sure that we weren’t missing out on any returns opportunity – it saved us from having to transfer to a deposit/savings account, but still allowed us to get market rates of returns on any excess cash that built up."
Chris Malley
CFO, Love to Dream
"The benefit with the major bank is they offered us term deposits which are at a relatively competitive rate. But especially for the US denominated ones, there was no ability to break the term deposit early. You'd have to lock it in for a period of time."
Chris Gillis
Co-Founder & CFO, LeonardoAI
Frequently asked questions
What is Airwallex Yield?
Airwallex Yield allows businesses the opportunity to earn a competitive return on their balances held in multiple currencies by investing into money market funds. There are no lock-up periods and you can access your funds as needed.
How is Airwallex Yield different from term deposits?
Term deposits also allow you to earn a return on your funds, but typically require that you hold your funds in the term deposit account for a set period of time such as 30, 60, or 90 days to be eligible to earn interest. If you wish to access your funds before the end of the term, you may incur a penalty. With Airwallex Yield, you are not required to hold your funds for a set time period, and you can access your funds at any time without incurring fees. Funds generally settle from your Yield account to your cash balances in 1-2 business days (with the exception of distribution periods or any exceptional circumstances).
What returns could I earn on my Yield account?
All investments carry risk, however Airwallex Yield invests into the JP Morgan Liquidity Funds, which have historically tracked local cash interest rates for the region. *Target returns noted above for USD and AUD balances are net of fees as at 1 July 2024 and indicate past 1-day annualised returns of the relevant underlying JPMorgan Liquidity Funds.
