What is Marcus by Goldman Sachs's best savings account with the highest interest rate?
The best savings account depends on what you want from your savings. If you're after fast access to your money, then an easy-access account should suit you. However, if you're happy to lock your money away for a time to access a higher rate, then a fixed-rate bond is a good option.
Finally, if you're looking to maximise your returns and shield them from income tax, consider an ISA. Below, we've listed the different types of accounts Marcus by Goldman Sachs offers, plus the highest interest rate currently available.
| Savings account types include | Cash isas, fixed-rate bonds |
|---|---|
| Best cash ISA rate | 4.01% |
| Best fixed-rate bond rate | 4.15% |
| Fixed bond terms | 1 year |
| Opening options | Website, mobile app |
| FSCS protection |
Are the accounts online?
Yes – you can open and manage your account online. If you wish to withdraw money, you will need to log into your Marcus account and transfer money to another UK account in your name (your linked account).
Likewise, if you want to deposit money, you have to transfer it in from your linked account.
How do I decide which account is for me?
Firstly, you need to decide what you’re looking for in a savings account. Are you after a tax-free savings account? Do you want to be able to pay in and access your cash whenever suits, or are you able to lock away a lump sum for a time?
You need to work out what you need before comparing the different offers available for certain types of savings accounts. Once you have done that, it’s useful to look at:
- Interest rates
- Fees (If there are any.)
- Access to cash (If you need quick access, for instance.)
What you need to open a Marcus account
To qualify for a Marcus account, you must:
- Be aged 18 or over
- Have a UK address and be resident in the UK for tax purposes
- Have a UK current account with a sort code and account number

Case study: Kirsty raised her interest rate with Marcus' boosters
"The easy access account’s a good option if you’re happy with app-only access to your savings account. Marcus regularly offers temporary interest boosters, which you need to manually activate on your account to receive the highest interest rate available to you. They are a welcome surprise, but this account might not be suitable if you would rather an out of sight, out of mind approach with little admin. You need to keep on top of your emails from Marcus to ensure you are receiving the highest interest rate, as the boosters are quite significant amounts.It was very easy to open the account and the app has a simple interface.
If there’s one thing you’d tell a friend who’s thinking of getting this, what would it be?
Mark Marcus as a high priority sender in your emails!”"
