Score a $1,000 Bonus with the General Finance World Cup Promotion!

This June, General Finance is bringing together the security of a term deposit with the excitement of the world’s biggest international football tournament.
From 1 June to 30 June 2026, eligible investors who open a qualifying term deposit with General Finance, including new investments, renewals, reinvestments, transfers and rollovers, can select the national team they believe will become the 2026 World Champion.
If your chosen team wins the tournament, you’ll receive a $1,000 bonus credit towards your next eligible term deposit with General Finance.
The $1,000 bonus is a promotional credit applied towards a future eligible term deposit and is not redeemable for cash.

Establish an eligible term deposit with General Finance during the promotional period.
Promotion Period: 1 June 2026 – 30 June 2026
A minimum term deposit of $2,000 is required to participate in this promotion.
Step 2 — Pick Your Champion
Once your term deposit has been established, you will be invited to choose your winner of the 2026 World Championship tournament.
The number of national teams you may select depends on the amount invested:
