For example, let\u2019s say you invest $1,000 in a savings account that pays 5% interest for 10 years:<\/p><ul><li>With simple interest, you would earn $500 interest.<\/li><li>With compound interest, you would earn $647 interest\u2014an extra $147.<\/li><\/ul><p>The key figure you need to look at when comparing savings account rates is the APY, or annual percentage yield. This figure takes into account the effect of compounding and shows you how much interest you can earn from an account per year.<\/p><h3>How are savings account interest rates calculated?<\/h3><p>There are two main factors that affect the savings account interest rates offered by banks:<\/p><ul><li><strong>The Bank of Canada\u2019s policy rate.<\/strong> Just like mortgage rates, savings account rates tend to move up or down in line with interest rate hikes and reductions.<\/li><li><strong>Competition.<\/strong> Banks will look at what competitors are doing when setting rates. To attract new customers to deposit their savings, banks will raise their rates to stand out from the competition.<\/li><\/ul><p>Interest on most savings accounts is calculated daily and paid out monthly. Interest is calculated on your account\u2019s closing balance at the end of each day, and it typically compounds daily, monthly or annually.<\/p>\n    \n\n<style>\n#toppicks, #toppicks-mobile { overflow-x: auto; }\n.table-expander__content { margin-left: 0.5rem; line-height: normal; }\n.pro-section { line-height: 1.35rem; text-align: left; }\n\n.topPicksF1 .card-topText {\n    font-weight: 800;\n    height: 50px;\n    font-style: italic;\n    align-content: space-around;\n}\n\n.topPicksF1 .zoom:hover {\n    box-shadow: 4px 6px 0 0 #232320;\n}\n\n.topPicksF1 .topPicks__deal {\n    color: #232021;\n    background-color: #F7F6EC;\n}\n\n.container-threepc.threepc-flex::-webkit-scrollbar { display: none; }\n.gx-badge__body.awards-badge__body.hasPopover.threepc-award { margin-top: 0; }\n.topPicks__card-card figure.award { padding: 0px 10px 20px 10px; margin: -3px auto 3px; width: 130px; }\n.topPicks__card-card figure.noward { padding: 10px; width: 130px; }\n.award-wrapper { height: 0px; display: block; margin: -23px auto 23px; }\n\n.threepc-rewards-pill-wrapper { display: flex; justify-content: center; margin: 0 0.7rem; }\n.threepc-rewards-pill-wrapper .rewards-pill-wrapper { margin: 0; display: flex; justify-content: center; }\n.rewards--container figure.noward, .rewards--container figure.award { padding-bottom: 0; }\n.container-threepc:has(.rewards-pill) .luna-button--success { margin-top: 8px; }\n.container-threepc:has(.rewards-pill) .has-padding-top-small { padding-top: 14px; }\n.award-bnt { padding-top: 0.5em; padding-bottom: 0.5em; }\n.award-pad { padding-top: 0.5rem; margin-bottom: 0.55rem; }\n.luna-card__block { padding: 1.25rem; }\n.ratings-w { width: 42%; margin: auto; margin-bottom: 1rem; }\n.cleanMastHead { display: block; }\n.standardMasthead.standardMasthead--widget { overflow: visible; }\n.standardMasthead__widgetSection__content { overflow: visible; }\n.popover.fade.bottom.in { overflow: visible; }\n\n.cardColoured-banner {\n    width: 100%;\n    border-radius: 0.7em 0.7em 0 0;\n    background-color: #e5f7ff;\n}\n\n.cardPros-text {\n    font-size: 0.8em;\n}\n\n.cardData-header {\n    margin: 0;\n    font-size: 0.77em;\n    white-space: normal;\n    color: #6c7881;\n}\n\n.cardProductname-header {\n    font-size: 0.77em;\n    white-space: normal;\n    color: #6c7881;\n    font-weight: 600;\n    margin-bottom: 0.5rem;\n    margin-top: 0.5rem;\n}\n\n.cardProductname-header-fsa {\n    margin-top: 2rem;\n    margin-bottom: 0.7rem;\n}\n\n.cardData-text {\n    margin: 0;\n    font-size: 0.9em;\n    font-weight: 700;\n    text-align: right;\n    white-space: normal;\n}\n\n.card-topText {\n    text-align: center;\n    margin: 0.5em;\n    font-weight: 500;\n    white-space: normal;\n}\n\n.container-threepc .luna-card {\n    overflow: visible;\n}\n\n.popover.top {\n    overflow: visible;\n}\n\n.pick {\n    margin-top: 0.3em;\n    margin-bottom: 0.3em;\n}\n\n.luna-card__topPick {\n   padding: 0.5em;\n}\n\n.best-pagePromoted-span {\n    font-size: 0.7em;\n    font-weight: 700;\n    background-color: #f6c744;\n    border-radius: 1em;\n    padding: 0.4em 0.8em;\n}\n\n.container-threepc {\n    width: 100%;\n    height: auto;\n    white-space: nowrap;\n    padding-top: 10px;\n    padding-bottom: 10px;\n}\n\n\/* Dual product-set visibility.

The best savings account rates are usually offered by digital banks.<\/p><p>For example, <strong>EQ Bank<\/strong> offers 2.35% or 2.75% with a Notice Savings Account, <strong>KOHO Essential Plan<\/strong> pays 2% interest and <strong>Neo<\/strong> pays up to 2.75% interest on its High Interest Savings Account. To find the best rates in Canada, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/savings-accounts\/best-high-interest-savings-accounts\">compare high interest savings accounts<\/a>.<\/p><h3>TFSA savings account rates<\/h3><p>Tax free savings accounts (TFSAs) are a popular alternative to standard savings accounts in Canada. These accounts offer the benefit of allowing your savings to grow without your investment earnings being taxed.<\/p><p>Check the table below for the latest TFSA interest rates from the Big Five and other popular digital banks.<\/p><table class=\"luna-table luna-table--responsiveList\"><thead class=\"luna-table__header\"><tr><th style=\"text-align: left; width: 32%;\" scope=\"col\">Bank<\/th><th style=\"text-align: left; width: 34%;\" scope=\"col\">TFSA bank account<\/th><th style=\"text-align: left; width: 34%;\" scope=\"col\">Interest rate<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>RBC<\/strong><\/td><td>Tax Free Savings Account<\/td><td>0.35%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>BMO<\/strong><\/td><td>Tax Free Savings Account<\/td><td>0.25%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>TD<\/strong><\/td><td>TD Canada Trust TFSA<\/td><td>0.3%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Scotiabank<\/strong><\/td><td>Savings Accelerator Account \u2013 Tax Free Savings Account<\/td><td>0.25%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>CIBC<\/strong><\/td><td>TFSA Tax Advantage Savings Account<\/td><td>0.25%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>EQ Bank<\/strong><\/td><td>TFSA<\/td><td>1.5%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Simplii Financial<\/strong><\/td><td>Tax-Free Savings Account<\/td><td>0.4%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Tangerine<\/strong><\/td><td>Tax-Free Savings Account<\/td><td>0.3%<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><h3>How to compare savings accounts and interest rates in Canada<\/h3><p>These are the key factors you need to consider when comparing savings accounts.<\/p><h4>Interest rate<\/h4><p>Shop around to find the account with the highest rate\u2014the higher the interest rate, the faster your savings account balance will grow.<\/p><p>But check the fine print to find out if there are any terms and conditions you need to meet to get the maximum advertised rate. For example, you may need to deposit a specified amount each month to qualify for the highest rate.<\/p><p>Other accounts have tiered interest rates. The larger your account balance, the higher the interest rate. Check the tiers to find out which rate your balance will allow you to qualify for.<\/p><h4>Promo rate<\/h4><p>Some savings accounts offer a high promotional interest rate for a limited introductory period like four or five months. These accounts can be very useful if you\u2019re saving for a short-term goal, such as a vacation, in a few months\u2019 time.<\/p><p>But once the promo period ends, the account will revert back to its standard rate, which is usually much lower than the promo rate. So, if you want to keep saving, you may want to move your money to a new high interest savings account at this point.<\/p><p>When comparing promo rate savings accounts, remember to check how long the promo period lasts and whether you need to meet any special conditions (such as making a minimum monthly deposit) to qualify for the rate.<\/p><h4>Fees<\/h4><p>Most savings accounts don\u2019t have monthly fees, but some charge transaction fees when you make a withdrawal or transfer funds to another account. If you need easy access to your money, look for an account with no transaction fees or an account that supports a certain number of free transactions per month.<\/p><h4>Linked account requirement<\/h4><p>Some banks require you to also open a chequing account before you can open a savings account. If this is the case, check if the chequing account comes with a monthly fee attached.<\/p><h4>How to manage your money<\/h4><p>Easy access to your money is always important, so choose a bank with user-friendly mobile and online banking portals. If you like to have the option of accessing face-to-face customer service, choose a bank with brick-and-mortar branches rather than a digital bank.<\/p><p>Finally, check how you will be able to withdraw money from your savings account when needed. Will you be able to withdraw cash at an ATM, or will you need to transfer funds to a different account first?<\/p><h4>Insurance<\/h4><p>Choose a savings account with a financial institution that is a member of the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation (CDIC). The CDIC insures deposits up to $100,000 in the unlikely event that your bank fails. Each Canadian province has its own deposit insurer that covers deposits at provincial credit unions.<\/p><h3>How savings account interest rates make a BIG difference for your money<\/h3><p>While a small difference in savings account interest rates might not seem like much, it can make a big impact on how quickly your balance grows. Let\u2019s take a look at a representative example.<\/p><p>Mike wants to open a high interest savings account to help pay for his daughter\u2019s education. He has $1,000 to deposit right away and plans to automatically transfer $150 from his paycheque each week to boost his savings.<\/p><p>Mike\u2019s regular Big Five bank pays 1.40% interest, but Mike browses high interest savings account rates and finds a digital bank offering 4%.
