Your Maxxia Wallet and the end of FBT year
The Maxxia Wallet is not only one of our most popular benefits, it’s also one of the simplest to use when getting organised for the end of FBT year (EOFBTY).
So, with this EOFBTY (31 March) on its way, let’s look at what you need to do (and know), to make your EOFBTY quick and painless.
Things to know
Spend your balance by Tuesday 31 March 2026
Tuesday 31 March 2026 is approaching, and with it the final date for spending funds on your Maxxia Wallet Mastercard for this FBT year. To make the most of your balance, try to spend it by then. Some transactions may take a few days to process, so give yourself plenty of time to clear as much of your balance as possible.
Payments to your Maxxia Wallet will finish one pay early
Your Maxxia Wallet annual budget is spread over the FBT year, however, you won’t receive a payment on your Maxxia Wallet Mastercard on your final pay in March. This gives you extra time to make the most of your remaining balance before the end of the FBT year.
Your cap limit has not changed; it's the same annual budget, over one less pay.
Things to do
Spend, spend, spend!
Reduce your cap balance to zero by 31 March 2026 to get the most out of your money this FBT year.
Do:
- Use your Maxxia Wallet for everyday expenses
- Buy a gift card with your Living Expenses benefit if you run out of ideas — it clears your balance but can be used later.
Don’t:
- Leave it until the last minute to spend your balance!
Tip: Use the My Maxxia app to track your balance so you know exactly what you need to spend. You can register for My Maxxia online here and get the Maxxia app from the App Store and Google Play.
If you have any unspent funds remaining on your Maxxia Wallet at midnight (AEST) on Tuesday 31 March, you will not lose this money.
Any remaining balance on Wednesday 1 April 2026 stays on your card but counts towards your new cap limit in the new FBT year. The carried over balance may mean you’ll need to adjust your fortnightly salary packaging budget on to the Maxxia Wallet, or you reach your cap early. For example, if you have $1,000 in unspent funds remaining on your card when the new FBT year starts, you’ll only be able to salary package $8,010 out of your $9,010 cap.
