STASH Introductory Interest Rate: 3.40% AER

A promotional rate exclusively for Grateful users - your tips, working harder for you.

Updated over a week ago

Your introductory rate

To mark the launch of STASH, we're offering Grateful users a promotional introductory savings rate of 3.40% AER (variable) on your Grateful Easy Access Saver Account.

To put that in context*:

  • 3.40% AER is better than Monzo's paid tier

  • Around 4x better than the rate offered by Lloyds and Halifax on easy access savings

  • Significantly higher than most major UK high street banks, many of which pay well under 1.50% AER on easy access savings accounts

This is a promotional rate - it's available to you as a Grateful user and designed to give your savings a strong start.

How the rate works

The interest rate on your STASH account is variable and tracks the Bank of England base rate. Here's what that means in practice:

  • Your current rate is 3.40% AER, equal to the Bank of England base rate minus 0.40%

  • If the base rate changes, your new rate will apply within 24 hours

  • AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate - it shows what you could earn over a full year, making it easy to compare savings accounts

If the promotional rate is ever reduced, Grateful will give you at least 14 days' notice before the change takes effect. Following any change, the rate will be equal to the base rate minus up to 1.15%.

Easy access - your money, when you need it

STASH is an easy access savings account. You're not locking your money away - you can access it when you need it, while still earning interest on what you've saved.

How to get started

  • Go to the STASH section

  • Set up your account in minutes

That's it. No manual transfers, no extra steps - STASH handles the saving for you straight from your tips.
