“With the cost of living increasing, we know that consumers want to maximise the interest they can earn with the reassurance of being able to access their savings instantly,” said Shaun Port, Managing Director – Savings and Investments for the bank in the UK. “We have designed the Chase saver account to provide our customers with maximum flexibility alongside a competitive rate.
“There are no fees or charges when customers move money out of their saver accounts, no monthly caps on how much can be saved provided total savings are within the £250,000 limit for all saver accounts.”
Saver Account: Additional features
- 1% cashback on everyday debit card spend for 12 months at home and abroad
- Small change round-ups on which customers can earn 5% interest: customers can save as they spend by rounding up their debit card purchases to the nearest £1, and we will deposit the small change into a separate account where it will earn interest at 5%.
- Fee-free debit card use abroad: customers won’t be charged any fees by Chase when using their card while travelling, including for cash withdrawals at ATMs abroad.
