As you build your savings, you’ll have a pot for emergencies such as car breakdowns, larger purchases such as cars or holidays or to build your mortgage deposit in a hassle-free way.
You can check your savings balance at any time using our online account management or mobile app, so you can see your nest egg growing.
As a member of First Defence Finance, you receive Life Savings Insurance FREE when you save with us.
The great thing about our Regular Saver is that you can make a withdrawal straight into your bank account at any time (except when you have a loan with us as your Regular Saver is secured against your loan).
As a not-for-profit organisation, at the end of each financial year, any remaining profit is paid back to our members in the form of an annual dividend. The dividend is announced each year at our AGM usually in December each year.
The dividend paid for the Regular Saver in Financial Year 2018/19 was 1%.

You are welcome to make one off payments into any savings account.
