What does Gross Interest Rate mean?

The Gross Interest Rate is the amount of money you’ve earned as interest from your Instant Saver Account, without the impact of compounding or tax. (Compounding is where interest earned previously is included in future interest calculations.) 

We calculate gross interest daily and pay it on a monthly basis. This means that the interest calculated for the first day of the month is not included in the balance used for the interest calculation on the second day of the month and so on.  

The gross interest calculated on each day of the month is totaled and paid into your Tide Instant Saver Account on the first day of the following month. Once it has been paid into your account, it’s included in future interest calculations (unless you withdraw it). This means that interest for a Tide Instant Saver Account is calculated daily but compounds monthly.
