Details on savings account with double interest

On 21 March 2025, the Swiss National Bank lowered its policy rate again. As a result, many banks will continue to reduce interest rates on savings accounts. It's therefore worth taking a particularly close look. If you opened a savings account with VZ between 15 July 2024 and 31 March 2025, you'll benefit from double interest – currently 0.3 percent.

Here's how long you'll benefit:

Opened between Double interest until
15 July 2024 and 30 September 2024 30 September 2025
1 October 2024 and 31 December 2024 31 December 2025
1 January 2025 and 31 March 2025 31 March 2026

Regardless of the account opening date, the same conditions apply to all savings accounts:

  • You must transfer your credit balance from another bank.
  • The double interest is valid for one savings account per person.
  • The double interest rate is based on the current interest rate on the VZ savings account and applies to amounts up to CHF 250,000.
