Depending on when you opened your Kroo Personal Current Account, different interest rate terms apply.

Opened on/after 5th October 2026

If you opened your account on or after midday on 5th October 2026, you will receive our 12-Month bonus interest rate with an initial total interest rate of 3.00% AER (2.96% Gross variable) on balances up to £500,000.

This promotional rate consists of two parts:

  • 2.00% fixed bonus rate: Locked in for your first 12 months from the date your account is opened.
  • Variable Tracker Rate: Tracks at 2.75% below the Bank of England base rate. If the Bank of England changes the base rate, your underlying tracker rate will adjust accordingly within 2 working days, while your 2.00% bonus remains fixed.

Once your 12-month promotional period finishes, your account will automatically revert to the tracker rate set at 2.75% below the Bank of England base rate.

Opened before 5th October 2026

If you opened your account before 5th October 2026, your account earns 2.65% AER (2.62% Gross variable) on balances up to £500,000. This isa “Tracker” rate, which pays interest at 1.10% below the Bank of England base rate. Kroo will update its interest rate no later than 2 working days after a change in the Bank of England base rate.
