Earn interest on your savings
With a savings pot, you could earn 1.46% AER / 1.45% Gross p.a (variable) on balances from as little as £10.
Only savings pots can earn interest. You can only have one savings pot. The interest rates may change to reflect the savings market. Interest is calculated daily and will be paid out monthly. Any positive change in interest will be notified within 30 days, any negative change in interest will be notified at least 60 days before. AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate. It shows you what the rate would be if interest was paid and compounded each year. Gross is the interest rate you’ve paid without the deduction of UK income tax. p.a is per annum (per year).
