Interest is calculated daily based on your end of day balance. This interest is then paid by ClearBank the next calendar day on a gross basis (i.e. before tax).

Can Revolut change the interest rate?

Revolut may vary the interest rates up or down. In the event of a decrease in your active rate you will be given at least 14 days’ notice. For a full list of reasons for an interest rate change, see the “Can my interest rate change?” section within the Revolut Instant Access Savings (powered by ClearBank) Terms.

What would the estimated balance be after 12 months based on a £1,000 deposit?

Based on an interest rate of 3.00% AER (variable), your balance would be £1030.00.
