-
No, Payroll Savings comes out of your pay after tax, just like if you moved money to a savings account manually. It won’t change your take-home pay or affect your tax. The amount you see in your payslip will reflect the savings contributions you make each payday.
-
Yes, whenever you like. Pause your payday saving, add extra from your bank account, or withdraw and it reaches your bank account by 6pm the next working day. No fees and no penalties.
-
This depends on how your employer handle this.
If you maintain access to the Payroll Savings app:
Your savings account remains yours. If you leave your company, you can continue managing your savings through your Payroll Savings portal or transfer your funds to another account. In some cases, you may also have the option to set up regular bank transfers to continue saving.
If you don’t maintain access to the Payroll Savings app:
If you leave your company, your savings account will be automatically closed. Your full balance will be automatically returned to your salaried account by 6pm the next working day. Any interest earned will be transferred at the end of the calendar month. You’ll receive a final statement confirming the closure and transfer of funds. -
Your savings are held with a regulated UK bank that’s part of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), which protects eligible deposits up to £120,000. Your money is safe and secure.

Payroll Savings is proven to build financial resilience, as it removes willpower from the equation. But you are welcome to keep what you have: Payroll Savings runs alongside it and moves money before it reaches your current account, so there’s less to think about.
-
No fees, no charges. Everything you save is yours, plus interest.
-
We offer consistently high rates: better than most high street current accounts and many standard savings accounts. Unlike limited-time offers, our rates are designed to stay competitive so you don’t need to chase deals.
-
It’s completely up to you. You can start small: even £10 a month adds up over time. Most people on Payroll Savings save around £100 a month, but there’s no right amount.
You’re free to change or pause your savings whenever you like. The most important step is getting started and building the habit.

We only collect the essential information needed to set up and manage your savings account, such as your name, date of birth, address and payroll deduction amount. This data is securely shared with our banking partner to open and maintain your FSCS-protected savings account. Your personal data is never shared or used for marketing purposes without your consent.
