The 26-year-old left-back, who has made 43 appearances for the Bantams this season, will stay at Valley Parade until the end of the 2016/17 campaign.
Meredith has been a key player in Bradford's recent success of a promotion from Sky Bet League Two, a run to the League Cup final in 2013 and their run to the FA Cup quarter-final this season, and he wants to make even more memories in West Yorkshire.
He told the club's official website: "I'm delighted to sign this deal. It is fantastic news for me.
"I am pleased to get this deal signed before the summer break so I can concentrate on our final games of the season.
"It is a good club to be at and I want to achieve more success here.
"The memories from our cup runs and our promotion from League Two are ones that will stay with us all forever.
"The plan now from the gaffer is to keep making more good memories and more good times here at Bradford.
"There is a great culture at this club. It is a culture of working hard and everyone pulling in the right direction.
"We are continually pushed to be the best we can be. We are prepared well for matches and training, and the coaching and backroom staff really look after us.
"The stadium is great, the staff are fantastic and the support we get here from the fans is truly superb.
"After being here three seasons, I want to continue being here for the long term."
The Australian has made 116 appearances for the Bantams since joining from York in 2012.
