Which savings account is right for me?
The type of savings account you might choose depends on different factors, based on the expected rate you want, how quickly you need access to your money, and how much you have to save with.
If you need flexibility and fast access, the Nomo Instant Access Saver is the account for you. It’s ideal for those who want immediate access to their savings without any penalties for withdrawals.
Nomo Fixed Term Deposits require you to put money away for a set period of time, and you won’t be able to access it without losing out on your profits.
However, you can enjoy our highest expected profit rates with a Fixed Term Deposit – so if you are comfortable without access to your deposit, you will have the benefit of higher expected returns.
How long does it take to start saving?
It takes just minutes to open a Fixed Term Deposit or Instant Access Saver in the app.
Simply fund your Nomo account with the amount of money you want to deposit and open your preferred savings account!
