What are high interest savings accounts?

High interest savings accounts are designed to help you reach bigger, long-term goals – whether that’s a home deposit, extended travel, a career break or your child’s education.

They typically offer a higher interest rate than standard savings accounts, helping your money grow faster over time. Look out for features like no fees, no maximum balance, and competitive interest to get the most from your savings journey.

How is Grow Saver different to other savings accounts?

The Virgin Money Grow Saver is an account that is designed to help your savings, you guessed it, grow! We offer a competitive variable savings rate plus bonus interest by meeting specific criteria. Another unusual feature of this account is that you can open it without a transaction account.

How much should I put in my long-term savings?

This largely depends on your financial goals, income, expenses, and personal comfort level. Financial experts often recommend saving at least 20% of your income. However, this amount can be adjusted based on your individual circumstances and objectives.

The key to successful long-term savings is consistency. Even small, regular contributions to your savings account can add up over time. Consider seeking advice from a financial advisor to create a savings plan that suits you.

What's the difference between Grow Saver and Boost Saver?

They’re both high interest savings accounts. The Virgin Money Boost Saver is our highest interest savings account that comes with a seriously rewarding linked transaction account – the Virgin Money Go Account.

If you don’t need an everyday bank account, then the Virgin Money Grow Saver could be for you.

But if you love rewards and want to score Virgin Money Points on your everyday purchases, direct debits and BPAY payments, PLUS get a higher interest savings account, then check out the Boost Saver benefits.

If I withdraw money from my Grow Saver, can I still get the bonus interest?

Yes, as long as you don’t make more than 1 withdrawal per month. But a heads up: you will need to make at least 1 deposit per month too, to meet the monthly criteria. The great news is there's no minimum monthly deposit amount needed to qualify.

Can I get the Virgin Money Grow Saver without a Virgin Money Go Account?

You sure can. The Grow Saver is an independent operator, so you don’t need a Virgin Money transaction account to open one.

All you’ll need is a transaction account with any bank or financial institution to transfer money in and out of your Grow Saver.

Want to keep things in the family? The Virgin Money Go Account makes a great everyday companion, and it earns you rewards, too.

Do I have to download the app to apply for my savings account?

No – not to apply for your Virgin Money bank account. You can apply for an account through either the Virgin Money mobile app or our website.

But you will need to download the app to manage your account. 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.
