What are Over 50s Accounts?
- An Over 50s account is similar to other types of savings account but may have additional features such as bonus interest for low levels of withdrawals.

Who are they Suitable For?
- Anyone over 50 who wants to save regularly and gain interest on their savings in a risk-free environment.
What to Look Out For
- Some accounts are open only to people over higher ages eg 55 or 60.
- It’s worth looking at generally available accounts as some of these can give you a better deal on interest and still allow you to get the benefits you want.
