Top tips to help you reach your goal

  • Don’t think of it as ‘saving’. Instead, think about putting money aside for something you really want or building up your rainy day fund. 
  • Not sure where to start? Our Round Ups tool makes saving simple - just pay with your debit card and we'll round up the amount to the nearest pound, then send the spare change to your savings account. You can even multiply your Round Ups by 2, 3, 4 or 5 to really turbo charge your savings.
  • Have savings goals but money in an account elsewhere and unsure what to do? Use 'Add Money' to transfer these funds, assisting in achieving your goals. It is designed to be quick and keep your money safe. Eligibility criteria and limits apply.
  • Another great way to get the ball rolling is to set up a Standing Order to go into your savings account on pay day. Try starting small and you might surprise yourself when you see those savings start to grow.

Round Ups is available to customers who have an eligible current account, an eligible instant access savings account and are registered for the Royal Bank Mobile App. Round Ups can only be made on debit card and contactless payments in Sterling.
