Family Savings Account

EBS Family Savings Account

The EBS Family Savings Account suits family life to a T. Whether you're saving for a new car, wedding, holiday or a new home deposit, putting a little money aside each month is a great way to see your savings grow. It lets you put a little away on a regular basis – from €100 to €1,000 a month, to be exact.

And the best thing about it? It offers a competitive rate of interest each year you save. This means you can plan that rainy day (or sunny day) down to the last cent– you’ll know exactly how much you can afford.

Our Family Savings Account is specifically designed for those big or small family goals. It’s a rolling one-year fixed savings account, which allows you one withdrawal per year too – giving you the flexibility you need. With an attractive interest rate you’ll see your money grow in no time.
