Frequently asked questions

What is a savings account?

A savings account is a type of bank account where you set aside money you don't need for everyday spending. Savings accounts help you save money for short-term and long-term goals whether it's for holidays, a wedding or an emergency fund. You'll also earn interest on your savings to help your money grow over time.

How many savings accounts can you have?

You can have as many savings accounts as you like, but you should make sure you can manage all the accounts you have. You could set up separate savings accounts to create individual funds and save for different financial goals. It's best to compare savings accounts to find the best interest rates and offers.

How does interest work on a savings account?

Savings interest is the extra money you earn on the balance of your savings account. Your provider calculates interest based on how much you've saved and pays it into your account on a monthly or yearly basis. Interest rates vary between providers products, so it's worth comparing accounts to find the best option.
