A wide range of business savings accounts for every need

Easy access accounts

Easy access savings accounts offer a good return with the flexibility to top-up and withdraw funds at any time with ease.

These accounts are ideal for businesses that might need immediate access to manage day-to-day expenses and unexpected costs.

Easy access accounts are a valuable way for businesses to make their surplus cash work harder.

Key features:

  • Deposit from £5k-£1m (or £20k-£1m for our easy access tracker)
  • Unlimited withdrawals
  • Immediate penalty-free access to funds.

 

Notice accounts

Notice savings accounts are an excellent way to put excess funds to work, allowing future withdrawals to be planned in the future without the commitment of a fixed term bond.

With a notice account, simply give the specified notice period to withdraw funds.

This type of account is perfect for businesses that can plan their cash flow in advance and do not need immediate access to their savings.

Key features:

  • Deposit from £5k-£750k
  • Unlimited withdrawals in line with the notice periods
  • Suitable for planned withdrawals.

Fixed rate accounts

Fixed rate accounts (also known as bonds) help to plan for the long term with certainty by offering a guaranteed rate for an agreed period.

This type of account is ideal for businesses looking to maximise returns on lump sums without the worry of interest rate fluctuations.

By locking in a rate, you can plan your finances with confidence, knowing exactly how much interest you will earn over the term of the account.

Key features:

  • Deposit from £5k-£750k
  • Guaranteed, predictable interest over a fixed term
  • Ideal for long-term savings  that you won’t need access to.

  • Easy access business savings accounts offer a good return with the flexibility to top-up and withdraw funds at any time with ease.  

    These accounts are ideal if you need immediate access to manage day-to-day expenses and unexpected costs.  

    It’s important to check the Summary Box for your account to understand any specific restrictions your account may have. 

    The interest rate on our business easy access accounts is variable.  

    There are two types of variable rates, ‘managed’ and ‘tracker’. Check your account Summary Box to understand which one it has. 

    Managed rates can be changed by us at any time, subject to us giving you notice. 

    Tracker rates move up and down in line with the BoE base rate. If the base rate changes, the new interest rate on your account will apply without notice, no more than 5 business days following a change in the base rate. 

    Refer to the account’s Summary Box and Terms and Conditions for more information. 

  • It can. Tracker interest rates are variable and can be increased or decreased depending on the Bank of England (BoE) base rate. 

    We can also adjust the margin to BoE base rate at any time at our sole discretion as outlined in the account Summary Box. 

    The margin is the percentage below the Bank of England base rate we detail on your Summary Box when you opened your account. This will move in line with the Bank of England Base rate minus the margin. This will move within 5 business days of a base rate change. 

    We can change the margin by giving you 14 days’ notice and you can close an easy access account at any time. 

  • ISA stands for Individual Savings Account. The main difference between an ISA and any other savings account is that it offers tax-free interest payments, so you could get more for your money. There is a limit to how much money you can put into an ISA in each tax year, which is called the ‘ISA allowance’.

    HTB will only offer a Cash ISA.

  • You can make a withdrawal from your easy access account when logged in online.   

    Withdrawals requested before 1pm on a working day will be paid the same day. For anything requested after 1pm this will be paid the next working day. 

    You can make unlimited withdrawals on a notice account, subject to your notice period. You can schedule these or send us a secure message when logged in.
