Writing about saving or savings rates in the Netherlands? Here is what you need: who we are, the current figures, how you may use them and where to reach us.

What is Spaarradar?

Spaarradar is an independent comparison of savings accounts and fixed-term deposits that you can open from the Netherlands, at Dutch and other European banks. We only list banks whose participation in a statutory deposit guarantee scheme we have verified with the supervisor or the scheme itself.

We sort by what an amount really earns: the effective annual rate, with promotional rates, tiers, maximum amounts and fees worked through. The order never follows payments from banks. We read rates several times a day from the banks themselves and from Raisin; every change is appended to a public history.

Current figures

As of 2 Nov 2026, 21:19. Effective annual rate on €50,000, gross, only offers where the whole amount is covered by the deposit guarantee.

What you are free to use
