Don’t forget to enter promo code MT3MA15 during the payment process on their app or website to redeem this offer.

I've been using WorldRemit for quite a few time already to send money from Australia to UK and the Philippines.
I have some relatives on both countries and there are some occasions that I need to send money to them.

Some things I like about WorldRemit are:

1. ZERO transaction fee for your 1st money transfer

2. 3AUD transfer fee only from Australia to UK. (For Philippines, it's different. Higher transfer fee and lower exchange rate than most of the remittance providers like iRemit)

3. POLi payments are accepted. This is where you seamlessly login via Worldremit online system and then you will be redirected to your own original bank site (as if you have login directly onto your bank online system like Netbank for Commonwealth Bank of Australia) and do the money transfer from there.

4. My favourite feature - the source of fund can be via credit card with maximum of 1,000AUD per transaction/money transfer. For practicality and emergency purposes, this feature is awesome!

5. Very secured.

Their site is SSL-enabled (https)
POLi payments accepted. POLi is able to provide consumers a convenient and affordable method of payment by operating a proxy. The proxy service means that the customers are simply accessing their original bank site via the POLi servers. see Overview of POLi (https://www.polipayments.com/Security)
A One-time PIN or single-use password is sent to your mobile phone via SMS or text message (valid for 2 minutes). Most Australian banks-provided credit cards already has this feature.

Novated Car Leasing Myths What is Novated Leasing? A novated lease (colloquially know as ‘salary sacrificing’) is basically a three-way agreement between an employer, an employee and a finance company. The employee gives consent to “sacrifice” some pre-tax salary to pay for their vehicle. The employer agrees to make the payroll deduction on the employee’s behalf. The finance company sets up the deal and handles administration. If the package is structured intelligently, at the end of the term all the employee needs to do is hand the keys back and decide what car to buy next.

It’s a significant benefit,” explains Bill Baker from novatedleasing.com.au . “Whe...
