If you don’t touch your savings
For every month you don’t touch your savings interest is calculated at the applicable rate on the portion of the balance which falls within each of the tiers outlined below.

If you do make withdrawals
For every month you do make a withdrawal, you'll receive our standard variable interest rate (currently 0.01% p.a.).
