None! Simply by becoming a new Bankinter customer, you can open your Digital Smart Account on www.bankinter.com and enjoy all the benefits.
To earn interest of up to 3% APR during the first year after opening the account, you must fulfil two very simple conditions:
- Direct deposit your payroll2 and activate BIZUM.
Payroll is understood to mean monthly payroll/pension/unemployment or direct deposits from self-employment.
On the 5th of each month or the following business day, we will review if the bonus requirements for the previous calendar month have been met in order to assign the corresponding interest payment in the next settlement.

The Digital Smart Account is a current account with two pockets, which are earning interest from 0% APR up to 3% APR if the conditions are met.
- For your current account: the first €5,000 at 0% NIR.
- For your savings account: unlimited amount and interest paid up to €50,000 at 2.47% NIR if the conditions are not met. And if you meet them, you will receive a 2.96% NIR for the first year after opening the account.
The interest is paid into the account on a monthly basis. This ensures that you will receive the corresponding interest every month.
It is simple to use. We will explain it with two examples:
- What happens if I deposit €60,000 when opening the Digital Smart Account?
At the end of the day, the €60,000 will be divided between the two pockets:
- the current account with €5,000 at 0% NIR.
- The other €55,000 will be deposited into the second pocket and we will pay you interest on €50,000 at 2.96% NIR, subject to conditions during the first year from the time the account is opened.
- What happens if I need to transfer €5,000 and I have €1,500 in the first €55,000 in the second pocket?
You can initiate the transfer with your app or online without any problem. The system will first transfer money from the unpaid pocket (€1,500) and then transfer the rest (€3,500 €) from the second pocket. This ensures that you still have €51,500 in the second pocket, of which €50,000 will continue to earn interest. This way we ensure that your interest-bearing savings are maximised.
See How often are the interest payments made into the Digital Smart Account? How often are the interest payments made into the Digital Smart Account?
The interest payments into the Digital Smart Account are made on a monthly basis. Each month, we will deposit the interest you have earned into your account, based on the average balance in your second pocket over the past month and if the conditions have been met.
