Regular Savings Account

A great way to get into the savings habit.

HSBC Regular Saver

When you have some extra cash to set aside each month and don’t need easy access to it, our Regular Saver could be a great way to help build your savings. You can save between £25 and £250 each month, and if you make no withdrawals, you'll get a 5.00% AER/gross fixed interest rate for 12 months.
  • Start saving from just £25. Set up a standing order from your HSBC account to pay between £25 and £250 into your Regular Saver each month. If your regular payments are less than £250 a month, you can carry your allowance over, paying more in later months (up to a total of £3,000)
  • Keep your money saved for a year. To benefit from the rate on this account, you won’t be able to make partial withdrawals at any time during the 12 months. You can choose to close your account early, but if you do, you’ll receive interest at our Flexible Saver rate
  • Receive a lump sum. At the end of 12 months, we'll transfer your balance into your Flexible Saver or Premier Savings account. If you have more than one of these, we'll choose whichever pays the best interest. If you don't have any, we'll convert your Regular Saver to a Flexible Saver for you
