Our verdict

BoursoBank pairs a free easy-access savings book with a French current account, so the cost case rests on access rather than rate. For residents of France who already hold its current account, a variable rate of 1.5% to 2.5% with a €10 minimum deposit works well.

Frequently asked questions

What does it cost to hold savings at BoursoBank?+

The savings book itself is free: monthly fees come to €0 and the account runs on a no monthly fee basis. There is no charge for taking money out either, so deposits and withdrawals are free at any time. The only floor is a minimum deposit of €10.

What rate does the BoursoBank savings account pay?+

The account pays a variable rate of 1.5% to 2.5%, which can move as the central bank changes base rates. That is below the site median of 3% for savings, so it is a convenience rate rather than a top one. The account is easy access, so there is no term to serve out.

Is my money protected if BoursoBank fails?+

Deposits are covered by EU DGS up to EUR 100,000, the European deposit guarantee scheme. The bank is supervised in France by the Autorité de contrôle prudentiel, and it also reports to the Autorité des marchés financiers. The scheme covers the balance held, rather than the return on it.

Who can open a BoursoBank savings account?+

The account is open to anyone in metropolitan France and the French overseas departments who is tax resident there. Applicants need regular income and must not be flagged at the Banque de France. Crucially, opening it requires holding a BoursoBank current account already.

How many savings booklets can one person keep?+

One person can hold up to four booklets alongside the current account. Each keeps a minimum balance of €10. The account pays a variable rate of 1.5% to 2.5%, and money can be taken out whenever it is needed without a charge.

Does BoursoBank charge for spending abroad on its card?+

The Visa card it issues carries a currency conversion fee of 0% on foreign spending, according to the bank's tariff brochure. That is worth weighing if you use the card heavily overseas, since the rate is the cost of the card rather than the savings account. Card details are set out on the group's tariff sheet.

How do I get help from BoursoBank?+

Help is offered through email, phone and chat, so a query can go by phone, email, live chat or the help centre. The bank has operated in France since 1998 as Boursorama SA, and it is headquartered in France. Insurance claims run on a phone-only channel.
