What is a high interest savings account?

Do I need to deposit money into my Boost Saver each month?
When will my Bonus Interest get applied on my Virgin Money Boost Saver?
Can I get a Virgin Money Boost Saver without a Virgin Money Go Account?
Sorry, no. You can’t get a Boost Saver without a Go Account. But you can get rewards on your everyday purchases with our Go Account and a high interest savings account to help you manage your money your way. There aren’t many banks that reward you for everyday purchases in your bank account, but we do! And with no monthly fees.
If you don’t need an everyday bank account, but still want the perks of a dedicated savings account, check out our Virgin Money Grow Saver, which is our other highest interest savings account. Check it out here
Do I need to download the app to apply for my account?
You can apply for an account through either the Virgin Money mobile app or our website. But you’ll need to download the app to manage your account.
We’ve designed the Virgin Money mobile app so you can bank like never before. It’s amazingly simple banking, so you can manage your money simply and securely, wherever and whenever you are. Give it a try! (And if you don’t love it, tell us why and we’ll do everything we can to make it better for you).
How often is interest paid on a high interest savings account?
This will differ for each bank. At Virgin Money, the interest you earn on your savings account will be credited at the close of business on the last day of each month.
The interest credited to your account will only be included in the closing balance from the first day of the next calendar month.
