Round Ups for payments clearing that day are added together and paid as one transaction. For example if today you use your debit card to make payments for:

  • £4.50 in a shop
  • £25.20 online

then £1.30 (£0.50 + £0.80) will be transferred from your current account to your savings account when the payments clear. This can take up to 4 days.

When will Round Ups not transfer money to my savings?

Round Ups won’t transfer to your savings account for the following reasons:

  • Your payment amount was a round pound e.g. £5.00
  • Your current account or chosen savings account has been closed
  • You're already in or would be taken into overdraft by the Round Ups amount
  • You have an auto transfer arrangement
  • Your debit card payment was rejected at the point of sale
  • Your debit card payment wasn’t in pounds sterling

What are the 4 numbers quoted on my Round Ups transaction description?

What are the 4 numbers quoted on my Round Ups transaction description?

On your current account statement, the transaction description will show the last 4 numbers of the savings account where you are sending your Round Ups i.e. 'ROUND UP TO 8636'.

The transaction description on your savings account will show the last 4 digits of the debit card number used to make the transaction you are rounding up i.e. 'ROUND UP FROM 0453'.

In some cases, such as online purchases, the 4 digits displayed may be a temporary number which you don't recognise. Don’t worry, this is normal and will be updated.
