The Aviva Save marketplace keeps growing, giving you more options to choose from. If you don’t find something suitable right now, there’ll be more choices later.

Fixed-term

These types of accounts usually have the highest rates of interest since you need to leave your money in there for a set time. These interest rates are fixed, meaning they won’t change over time, and the interest will be added to your account when the set time is over.

Easy Access accounts

These accounts have variable interest rates, meaning they can change over time, and it’s usually a lower rate than notice or fixed-term accounts because you can take your money out whenever you want. It can take up to 3 business days for withdrawals and closures to be processed and funds received back in your Aviva Save account.

The interest is added either monthly or annually depending on the account you choose. You can find when interest is paid by going to your account details through the marketplace.

The partnerships that help power Aviva Save

Raisin company logo

We've teamed up with Raisin UK to offer you Aviva Save. Raisin UK is a subsidiary of Raisin GmbH which provides savings marketplaces to over 1,000,000 customers across 30+ countries. Please note, if you already hold an account directly with Raisin, or via one of Raisin's other distribution partners, you won’t be able to open a second account via Aviva Save.

Clear Bank company logo

Your Aviva Save holding account is provided by ClearBank, who look after money transfers from your current account to Aviva Save. ClearBank securely holds your FSCS-protected funds – it doesn't pay interest. Your deposit transfers automatically from ClearBank once the partner bank approves your application.

Ready to step into a realm of simplified saving?

Register for an Aviva Save account in just a few minutes and set sail towards meeting your money goals.

For now, Aviva Save is separate to MyAviva. So even if you have a MyAviva account, you'll need to sign up for Aviva Save separately. In the future you'll be able to access Aviva Save through MyAviva, making things even easier. 

If you're already an Aviva Save customer, you can log in here.

The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS)

The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) is the UK's statutory fund of last resort for customers of financial services. If any of the banks we work with were to go out of business, 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 limit won't be covered by the scheme.
