How to do it
- 1Ensure you are a new customer (no previous or recently closed Ubank savings account).
- 2Open a Savings Account via the Ubank app or website.
- 3Deposit funds and ensure your end-of-month balance is higher than the previous month's end-of-month balance.
- 4Receive 6.10% p.a. for the first 4 months if conditions are met; subsequently, the rate drops to 5.35% p.a. provided balance growth continues.
Money-saving tip: The key catch is the monthly balance growth requirement. If you deposit a large sum and leave it untouched, you will likely only receive the low base interest rate, not the advertised 6.10%. This deal is best for those actively saving each month.
Conditions
- New customers only.
- Welcome rate applies for the first 4 months only.
- Strict 'Monthly Balance Growth' condition: If your balance does not increase in any given month, you may lose eligibility for the bonus rate and revert to the base rate.
- Effective from 6 October 2026.
Risks
- CautionFailing to grow the balance in any month results in losing the high interest rate for that period.
