Original title
Up Savers Grow Rate 5.6% p.a. (Must Make 5 Monthly Card Transactions & No Withdrawal on Saver)
Quick take
Good for
- Users with idle funds willing to use their Up card monthly
- Those looking for higher savings yield than Essentials 2%
Not for
- Anyone who needs to access Saver funds frequently (withdrawals forfeit the rate)
- Users who cannot meet 5 monthly card transactions
Why it's worth a look
- 5.6% p.a. is competitive among Australian savings accounts
- No account fees, no minimum deposit requirement
- Strong community vote (+55/-0) confirms the deal is straightforward
Watch out
- Failing the monthly conditions may drop the rate for that month
- Variable rate — expect decreases if the RBA cuts the cash rate
