eSaver Extra Interest
Standard Chartered Bank is currently running a promotion on their eSaver account.
Topup your eSaver account by the end of this year and enjoy an additional 0.5% p.a. interest on your topup amount.
Here’s how it works.
If your account balance has:
- Less than $50k - the prevailing rate of 0.5% p.a. + bonus rate of 0.5% p.a. (on your topup amount) = 1% p.a.
- $50k to $199,999 - 0.88% p.a. + 0.3% p.a. = 1.18% p.a.
- $200k upwards - 1.0% p.a. + 0.3% p.a. = 1.3% p.a.
Another promotion going on is that you will receive a $30 shopping voucher if you set up a giro instruction transferring $500 (every month) to your eSaver account from your account in another bank. The giro form has to be submitted by end of September this year.
For the giro instruction promo, where did u heard that from?
I can’t find any mention of that on their website.

I got the giro info together with that interest rate mailer. Not too sure whether or not it’s exclusive. You can give a call to them to verify.
