What is an easy access savings account?

An easy access saving account, also known as an instant access savings account, pays interest but lets you withdraw your funds instantly when you need them, with no penalties. You can open one of our Instant Savers without a deposit.

What's the Instant Saver interest rate?

3.85% AER / 3.78% Gross variable

See how much interest you can earn from our instant access savings account.

* ‘Gross’ is the rate of interest that’s payable on this account and represents the amount of tax-free interest you’ll earn in a year.

** ‘AER’ means ‘annual equivalent rate’ and is designed to make it easy for you to compare savings products. It tells you how much interest you’d earn if you put some money in an account and left it there for a full year. It takes account of things like how often the interest is paid and assumes any interest paid during that year is added to the balance and earns interest.

*** Per annum is the estimated total interest based on our gross rates that you will earn over 12 months if you deposit on the day of opening. The estimate also assumes you don’t make any further deposits or withdrawals in 12 months, and interest is paid directly into the account.
