Savings accounts

It only takes a few minutes to register for Aviva Save. We’ll just need some details like your bank account and NI number. Keep an eye on your inbox just in case we need more information, and for confirmation that your registration is complete. Once that's done, you can move money from your bank to your holding account. You then choose the savings account and deposit that suits you best, and apply. We'll send you a security code, via text, to complete the process.  Your money will then transfer straight to your savings account.

You’ll need your personal information, bank details and National Insurance number for the registration process.

All Aviva Save accounts are protected by the FSCS, meaning you get automatic protection of up to £85,000 per person per banking group. Any money you have in a bank that goes beyond the protected £85,000 limit won't be covered by the scheme.

It depends on the type of account you have. Some accounts pay out interest monthly and others pay out yearly. You can find when interest is paid by going to your account details through the marketplace.

If you're a UK basic rate taxpayer, you can usually earn up to £1,000 a year tax-free on your savings, known as a Personal Savings Allowance. If you're a higher rate taxpayer, the tax-free amount is up to £500. If you are an additional rate taxpayer, you don’t get a Personal Savings Allowance. If your interest goes above your Personal Savings Allowance, it will be added to your income and taxed at the rate that applies to you. Taxation depends on your personal circumstances and rules may change in the future. To get the latest information on tax on savings interest, you can visit HMRC.

We won’t charge you for using the marketplace. Instead, we receive payments from the partner banks based on the amount of money deposited through Aviva Save. The savings accounts and interest rates offered directly by our partner banks may be different to from the ones you see on Aviva Save.
