There is a variety of savings accounts that provide the monthly interest option along with an online service. These accounts include:

  • Instant access
  • Fixed interest
  • Notice account
  • Cash ISAs

You should shop around as much as possible. Most banks and building societies offer online account management, but some banking groups are solely online and you must have access to the internet to sign up to one of these providers. Providers of online savings accounts sometimes offer higher rates than on accounts you apply for in person or over the phone, because there is less admin involved, and they pass these savings onto you.


You may benefit from earning interest on your savings to put towards the cost of living if you belong to the following groups:

 

  • Retired with a pension
  • Having a career break
  • Maternity/paternity leave
