You can check every interest payment for yourself.

Once a month we take the balance of your savings account, apply our yearly savings rate and pay one twelfth of it into the account. The rate in use is always shown on the Accounts page in online banking.

  • Paid every monthInterest arrives as its own line in your history, so you can see exactly what you earned.
  • A notification each timeWe let you know in online banking and by email when the interest lands.
  • On your statementEvery interest payment appears on the monthly statement for the account.
Savings accounts come with a set number of withdrawals each calendar month, and online banking shows how many you have left. Transfers, bill payments, exchanges, card top-ups and loan payments all count as withdrawals. If one of them is declined or reversed, you get that withdrawal back.

You can keep your money in more than one currency.

Choose the currency of your first account when you sign up, then ask for more accounts in other currencies from online banking. Our team activates each new account and lets you know when it is ready.

  • Exchange between your own accountsBefore you confirm, we show you the rate and the exact amount that will arrive in the other account.

Every account comes with the tools you use most.

Here is how daily limits work and which payments we review.

Daily sending limit

Every profile has a daily limit on what can leave its accounts. Your dashboard shows how much you can still send today, and if you need more, write to us and we will look at it with you.

Before you are verified

Until we confirm your identity, a lower daily limit applies. Upload your ID and a selfie in online banking to lift it.

Payments we review

International transfers, bill payments, and check deposits are checked by our team before they complete. If we decline one, any money we held goes straight back.
