TIP:
It makes sense to have a savings account primarily as a place to keep or build up your financial reserve (ideally for a loss of income, a car breakdown, etc.). Experts recommend that it be equal to 3–6 months' worth of expenses. You can certainly continue saving beyond this amount—for example, to make your dreams come true. However, it’s usually worth investing larger amounts to give your savings a chance to earn more.

How can I easily open a savings account?

WE'LL AUTOMATICALLY OPEN A SAVINGS ACCOUNT FOR YOU WHEN YOU OPEN A CURRENT ACCOUNT

Choose a current account

We have 3 convenient current accounts for you to choose from. The basic current account is free of charge. It's entirely up to you what you need.

Set up all your accounts at once

You can easily open a current account with a savings account online or at one of our branches.

And you can use them

You'll see both accounts as soon as you download the app and log in to Smart Banking. And both are right at your fingertips.

How to get a bonus of up to 4,000 CZK?

You automatically receive a savings account when you open one of our current accounts. Furthermore, as a new client, if you make at least 10 payments per month using your debit card, you will receive 400 CZK per month—up to a total of 4,000 CZK. You can find more details on the Personal Bank Accounts page or in the Campaign Terms and Conditions.

Why actually have a savings account?

Even today, it makes sense—and for several reasons.

Interest on savings

In a savings account, your savings grow thanks to interest, whereas in a standard account, they typically do not.

For the reserve and for dreams

You can conveniently build up a necessary financial cushion while continuing to save for your wishes and larger goals.

Insured deposits

Your savings in a savings account are protected—specifically, within the EU, typically up to EUR 100,000 per client.
