Questions about the Smart Digital Account?
The Smart Digital Account is divided into two buckets:
It's a current account with two separate but connected buckets:
- Bucket 1 for everyday banking, up to €5,000 without any interest.
- Bucket 2 for your savings: with no limit, earning interest on balances up to €50,000 paid monthly.
And because it's smart, it moves your money from one bucket to the other.

FAQs
What are the conditions for opening a Digital Smart Account?
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 2% APR during the first year after opening the account, you must fulfil two very simple conditions:
- Direct deposit your payroll 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.
How do the Smart Digital Account buckets work?
The Smart Digital Account is a current account with two buckets that yield interest from 0% AER to 2.50% AER if you meet the conditions.
- For your everyday banking: the first €5,000 at 0% NIR.
- For your savings: with no limit on the deposit amount and yielding 2.47% NIR on balances up to €50,000 for the first 3 months, and then 1.98% NIR if you don't meet the conditions. If you do meet them, you'll get 2.47% NIR for up to one year from the date you open the account.
The interest is paid into the account on a monthly basis. This means that you'll get the applicable interest every month.
The way the account works is very simple. Here are 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 buckets:
- The first €5,000 at 0% NIR.
- The other €55,000 will be deposited in the second bucket and will yield 2.47% NIR on balances up to €50,000, subject to conditions, for up to one year from the time the account is opened.
- What if I need to transfer €5,000 and I have €1,500 in the first bucket and €55,000 in the second one?
You can make the transfer through your app or online without any problem. The system will first transfer the money from the bucket that doesn't earn interest (€1,500) and then transfer the rest (€3,500) from the second bucket. So you will still have €51,500 in the second bucket, of which €50,000 will continue to earn interest. This way we maximise your interest-bearing savings.
How often does the Smart Digital Account pay interest?
The Smart Digital Account pays interest on a monthly basis. Every month, on the same date you opened your account, we'll deposit the amount you have earned (depending on the average balance in the second bucket of the account over the past month and your compliance with the requirements). For example, if you opened your account on 10 June 2025, the interest earned will appear in your account on the 10th of every month.
Will I be able to order transfers and operate with my Smart Digital Account?
Yes, your money will always be available. You can withdraw or transfer any amount with complete flexibility and as many times as you want. Without penalty and optimising the savings that earn you interest in the second bucket up to €50,000.
What will I need to open the Digital Smart Account?
To start opening your new account online, you will need the following:
- Be over 18 years of age.
- Your valid national ID card
- A Spanish mobile phone number (+34)
- A mobile device with a camera (for video identification)
Can there be two or more account holders on the Digital Smart Account?
Yes, there can be multiple account holders:
- To add a second account holder to your account, you can invite another person to become a co-owner during the registration process. Please note that both account holders must digitally sign the contract in order to open the account.
- If you want to open the account for 3 or more account holders, you will need to complete the contract from this link, instead of the Bankinter app.
