Savings Accounts
Simple ways to save
Savings accounts can provide a safe method of getting that little bit extra out of your money. Savings accounts will generally pay a higher rate of interest on your savings than a current account.
Placing your savings into a savings account can be a suitable option if you want to keep your money in easy reach. Some savings accounts will offer higher rates of interest if you are able to commit you savings for a certain period of time. The type account that is most suitable for you will depend on your own individual circumstances.
There are a huge variety of savings accounts on offer, choosing the right one can be complex. Use the table below to compare some popular saving account products.
