About Spaarradar

Spaarradar compares savings accounts and deposits you can open from the Netherlands, directly at the bank or via Raisin. The rates come automatically from the banks themselves, are re-checked several times a day and are calculated for your amount: with tiers, promotional rates, fees and compound interest. Only balances covered by a verified European deposit guarantee scheme are in the comparison.

Independent

The order follows solely from the rate conditions, your amount and the deposit guarantee. For some banks a click-through earns a fee; those links are marked as advertising links and have no influence on inclusion, calculation or order. How that works exactly is in the methodology.

How the articles are made

The articles under News explain how saving works; they do not recommend a bank. Rates inside an article are not typed in: they are read from the comparison when you open the page, so they are today's. Facts that do not come from our own data (rules of the deposit guarantee, tax, the ECB) are checked against the source named under “Sources” at the end of the article, and the byline shows when that was last done. Found a mistake? Mail us and we correct it, with the date.

No advice

The site provides information, not financial advice. Rates are gross and as the provider publishes them; variable rates can change at any time. Always check the conditions with the bank before opening an account. See also the disclaimer.

One thing we cannot answer: which account or bank suits you. That is financial advice, which requires an AFM licence that we do not have and do not want. We do answer questions about the figures, the sources and how the comparison works.
