FAQs
Common questions
How do I qualify for the various interest types?

You get 2 categories of interest on your account every month.

1. Base interest:

This interest is accrued daily based on your account's day-end balance and you will receive this at the end of the month.

2. Bonus interest:

You earn 2 types of bonus interest on your account’s average daily balance and you will receive this on the 1st business day of the following month.

  • Earn a Monthly No Withdrawal bonus interest of 2.00% a year for months when you do not make any withdrawals.
  • Earn a Monthly No Withdrawal & Save bonus interest of 0.75% a year for months when you do not make any withdrawals and deposit at least S$500.
How can I deposit the minimum S$500 each month to be eligible for the Monthly No Withdrawal and Save Bonus Interest?

You can choose to deposit the money through any of your preferred methods. For example, you can set up a recurring monthly FAST contribution instruction. Do note that funds received on a non-business day via FAST or PayNow (for example, Sunday or public holidays) will be valued on the next business day. If your funds have a value date that falls in the next calendar month, you will not be eligible for the Monthly No Withdrawal and Save Bonus Interest for that particular month.

Is there an account balance limit for the Bonus Interest?

No there isn’t. You will get the bonus interest on your entire account balance, if the required criteria is met.

What happens if I make a withdrawal in that month?

You will receive the base interest (0.05% a year) for months when you make a withdrawal. For subsequent months, you can earn bonus interest (up to 2.80% a year) if you meet the bonus interest criteria. Earn a maximum of 2.80% a year if you meet the bonus interest criteria every month.

Example scenario:

Month Withdrawal Deposit ≥ S$500 Total interest (a year)
January Yes Yes 0.05%
February No No 2.05%
March No Yes 2.80%

If you withdraw from the account this month, you can still enjoy the bonus interest if you meet the criteria in the following months.

Is interest rate credited on a monthly or yearly basis?

Bonus interest is credited monthly, on the 1st working day of the following month.
