How does the bank deposit sweep work?

Through the Bank Deposit Sweep, cash you deposit is swept to one or more of the participating banks, where the swept cash becomes eligible for FSCS insurance up to a total maximum of £255,000 (FSCS insurance coverage is limited to £85,000 at each participating bank).

Funds deposited into the sweep are managed by us, we will adjust your allocations across the available deposit accounts as often as daily to ensure the best outcome for you.

After depositing money, how long does it take for my cash to be sweep into the the deposit accounts?

Cash is swept once per business day. The daily cutoff is around 11:45 am and therefore your time to have funds swept can be either same-day or next business day depending on timing

When is interest paid into my account?

While interest accrues daily, it is realised (credited) monthly on the first business day of the month. The realised interest stays invested within the sweep to compound into yield unless other user actions are taken such as withdrawals. Realised interest for the month will be available in your monthly account statement.
