Who runs it

The savings product is the Chubal, a goal account that runs for a term of 3 to 24 and can be cancelled at any time with no penalty. Up to ten Chubales can be active at once, so several goals can run together. Help is available by phone and through the help centre, and the Nequi account moves money instantly at any hour.

Frequently asked questions

What interest does the Chubal pay?+

The Chubal pays a headline rate of 4% on the balance you put aside. That is above the site median of 3%, though the site range runs from 0% to 101.5%.

Does the interest rate change?+

Yes. The rate is variable, which means it can move up or down over the life of the goal. Of the savings accounts compared, 53.9% share the same variable treatment.

How much do I need to put in?+

A Chubal starts from a GTQ 1,000 minimum deposit. That is well above the site median of €0.88, and the top quartile of accounts on the site start at €43.85 or less.

Is there a monthly fee?+

No. The monthly fee is GTQ 0, so nothing is deducted from the account each month and the whole balance keeps earning the headline rate of 4%.

How long must I leave the money?+

A Chubal runs for a term of 3 to 24. You can cancel at any time with no penalty, which makes it closer to a flexible goal than a locked deposit.

How many savings goals can I open?+

Up to ten Chubales can be active at the same time, so you can run separate goals for different purposes and pick the term that suits each one within 3 to 24.

Who holds my money?+

The account is operated by Banco Agromercantil, which is based in Guatemala. The legal entity and country of operation are the only ownership details stated for the savings product.

How do I get help if something goes wrong?+

Support is available through phone and help centre. A phone line covers urgent account questions, while the help centre handles the everyday how-to side.

Can I move money in and out while saving?+

The Nequi account sends and receives money instantly at any hour, so you can top up a Chubal whenever you are paid. The goal itself still runs for its chosen term of 3 to 24.
