Business savings accounts

Save with our Fixed Term, Notice or Instant Access accounts and help change the lives of people in local communities.

Business savings for every goal

Putting money aside today can help your organisation achieve more tomorrow. Our business savings accounts are designed to help you manage surplus funds, build financial resilience and plan with confidence.

Business Savings Accounts

Every organisation’s savings goal are different. Explore the options below to find the right balance of access, flexibility and returns for your organisation.

Our Fixed Term Deposit Accounts let you earn a fixed rate of interest by locking away surplus funds for an agreed term.

This account could be relevant if:

  • You’re happy to leave your money untouched for a fixed period and receive interest at maturity.
  • You want to save a lump sum of £85K or more rather than making regular deposits.
  • You want certainty of the interest you will earn on your savings.

Our Notice Accounts enable you to balance access and returns with an account that lets you withdraw funds after giving notice.

This account could be relevant if:

  • You can plan ahead before accessing your savings.
  • You want to earn more interest than an instant access account.
  • You need a balance between flexibility and stronger returns.

Our Instant Access Savings Accounts keep your savings within easy reach, with day to day flexibility and access whenever you need it.

This account could be relevant if:

  • You need access to your savings at short notice.
  • You want to keep surplus funds readily available.
  • You’d like to earn interest without locking your money away.

Before you apply

Take a moment to read our General Terms and Conditions and Standard Service Tariff for your chosen savings account.

You will need to have either a Unity Business Current Account or Instant Access Savings Account to open a Fixed Term Deposit or Notice Account.

Our savings accounts are designed to help you grow and manage your organisations funds and are not intended for day-to-day transactional banking. This means you cannot use them to make payments or withdraw funds through Online Banking.

In exceptional circumstances, if you wish to make a payment or withdraw funds you will need to request a transfer to an internal or external account, for which there may be a fee or loss of interest.
