Saving feels good, winning feels great.

Product Information

PrizeSaver is a savings account with monthly prizes

Open a PrizeSaver account and you also have the chance to win up to £5,000 in a free monthly Prize Draw.

Saving just £1 gives you a chance of winning. You get more chances to win with each pound you save, up to £200.

How does PrizeSaver work?

It’s simple. When you save with PrizeSaver, every £1 in your account (up to £200) is a chance to win and boost your savings.

Participating members will be entered into the monthly draw with savers in other credit unions. The main prize is £5000, and there are 20 other prizes every month. There is nothing else to do: just save a bit each month (or put in the full £200) and we will let you know if you’re a winner!

Please let us know if you would like to open a PrizeSaver account and we will set this up for you. Once you have the £1 minimum in your shares account, this is the first place for additional savings. You can add to the account by transfer from your shares account, or by regular contribution, for example from salary payments.

If you want to pay into your PrizeSaver account by bank transfer or standing order, please use your member number and the word Prize as a bank reference: e.g. 12134 Prize
