The power of a not-for-profit*

Accounting, financial planning, mortgage broking, insurance, personal loans and wills are some of the services that the Australian Public Service Benevolent Society (APS Benefits) offers its members.

Founded in 1905 when a small group of postal workers decided to put in sixpence from their pay each week to form a funeral fund for the widows when any of the society members died, APS Benefits has grown to offer a rage of professional and financial services to its members from the public service, public sector and defense force.

APS members have access to online facilities available 24 hours a day, seven days per week.

APS Benefits also offers funeral cover and can assist members to gain immediate funeral cover up to $20,000 for adults and $7,000 for dependent children (aged two to 15 at their next birthday).

APS Savings Ltd is a wholly owned subsidiary of APS Benefits and offers a Fixed Term Investment product.

The term can be 30 days, six months, 12 months or 24 months.

The APS Benevolent Foundation is a registered charity and a deductible gift recipient. Any donations it receives above $2 are tax deductible.

The APS Benevolent Society has a long history of providing benevolent grants to its members in times of need and of supporting a plethora of community events – the Foundation enables us to expand our level of benevolence.
Membership is also open to spouses, partners, siblings, parents and children of members.

Become one of APS Benefit’s 28,000 members today.
