FAQs
Aera is not a registered bank. We are a financial services company that exists to help members get into their own homes, faster.
For our savings products we use similar tools as wealth management firms but we’re on a mission to pass on as much of the returns as possible to you.
We handhold your journey into your first home from start to finish, facilitating the insurance, mortgage and real estate transactions. We support you along the way and share commissions with you from Aera services that you choose to use, which you can unlock and put towards your deposit.
Right now we are helping thousands of kiwis with their home ownership journey. All future first home buyers are welcome, register here and then download the app to start.
Our member-only mobile app is home to the Aera Deposit Accelerator high interest savings offerings to help you build your first home deposit faster. It’s also where you can interact with our digital and human guides who are there to help you on the journey.
You can view your Deposit Credit balances, account details, transaction history, send and receive money, pay bills and manage your Aera Visa membership card.
Coming soon, it will also be a place where you can set goals, manage your progress and learn a lot more about all the things you need to know and be prepared for as you work towards your first home.
