Your funds will be securely held for the entire duration of your chosen term until the Vault matures – ensuring peace of mind while you grow your investment.

To get started with your Vault, you need a minimum of €100 in your SmartSaver Account. Once you have that, you can easily open a Vault and add your funds.

You'll to name your Vault and select a purpose, and whether the name reflects a financial goal or something playful, it’s a great way to personalise your investment.

After opening your Vault, you have a 10-day window to add funds before it's locked for your chosen period. This gives you extra time to maximise your investment and increase your savings.

Our auto-renewal feature has also been enhanced, allowing you to choose whether to reinvest your entire Vault balance or just your initial capital investment.

If you opt for the capital investment, at the maturity of your Vault, any accumulated returns will be paid out to your main account, while your initial capital investment will remain in the renewed Vault.

If you created your Vault before January 13th 2025, and have the auto-renewal feature enabled, your Vault will renew at the original rate and will not be subject to the newly updated rates.

Additionally, you’ll have 10 days to add funds during the auto-renewal period, giving you even more flexibility to enhance your investment!

Finally, it’s definitely worth taking a moment to review the Terms and Conditions of the Vaults before signing up. You can find them here.
