About People First Bank

It’s all in our name.

People First Bank is all about placing people at the heart of everything we do – our customers, our community and our employees.

We’re creating a new era in banking by offering a strong national alternative to the big banks. We are a bank that’s different. We’re committed to doing right by our customers, supporting our communities and the environment, and creating an exceptional workplace for our people.

We’re 100% customer owned. This means any profit we make is invested right back into the organisation to benefit our customers and their communities. 

Our commitment to customers and brokers 

As a leading Australian customer-owned bank, we’re dedicated to our customers’ finances and future. 

We're committed to making sure you can provide your clients with the best possible products and experience.

With dedicated teams just for you, fast turnaround times and unique offers, we provide all the tools you need to deliver your clients, and our future customers an easy experience.

Our history

Our origins date back to 1875, making us one of Australia’s longest-running financial institutions. With the merger in 2023 of Heritage Bank and People’s Choice, we became one of the largest customer-owned banks in Australia.
