how often is the interest paid out..At what amount do you have to start paying prsi?
This is really helpful thanks!To follow up, it becomes profitable to have the metal plan if you have €22k or more (for an entire year - not accounting for compounding)
I'm definitely no expert but I tend to believe the ECB lags a bit behind the US Fed when it comes to interest rates. The Fed don't seem to be making any moves as of yet and are pushing back slightly due to higher than expected inflation data.This is really helpful thanks!
With expectations that interest rates will reduce this year, would you guess it's foreseeable that N26's 4% interest saving rate also reduces and so the breakeven figure for the metal account will also increase?
As long as the 1.2% difference remains, the breakeven point should be the same. Of course this can also change.This is really helpful thanks!

Yes, as well as DIRT - neither of which N26 withhold so you have to do this yourself via MyAccount, or via registering for Income Tax and filing your Form 11Do you pay prsi on any interest you make?
Couldn't find any reference to this, would like to know if this is the case or not if anyone knows a revenue source by any chance?Isn't PRSI only applicable if your non-PAYE income exceeds 5K. So if you had 100K in N26 but no other interest earning savings or investments, then it's not payable?
Not an answer to your question..Couldn't find any reference to this, would like to know if this is the case or not if anyone knows a revenue source by any chance?

From Revenue
Is your extra income taxable?
This page explains what do you need to do if you have extra incomewww.revenue.ie
Not a Revenue source but also mentioned
Social insurance
Social insurance contributions entitle you to a range of benefits administered by the Department of Social Protection.www.citizensinformation.ie
PAYE tax payers who are not considered 'chargeable persons' by Revenue are not liable for the new PRSI charge. A person is not a 'chargeable person' if their income from non-PAYE sources is less than €5,000 and this income is taxed under the PAYE system. (Generally such income is taxed by reducing a person’s tax credits to account for tax payable. However if you have paid Deposit Interest Retention Tax (DIRT) on your non-PAYE income you are not required to pay further income tax on this income.)
Thus appears to be a rather newsworthy story.Not an answer to your question..
Revenue have taxed my 2023 interest declared at 42% as income tax. (Other foreign income). This has been well discussed here. It is an error on the side of Revenue. I have sent 3 'my enquiries', but twice have been told that this is correct. The 3rd 'my enquiry' has been left sitting there uncompleted. I got a query last week on why I needed a 'tax residency cert' (Raisin product requires it), and confirmation on where I live now. I responded explaining about Raisin and Revenue person responded again, explaining that as normally banks seek these certs, my request triggers 'a query' and that I could ask for a reissue again.
I have now asked this person to look into the incorrect application of tax, when it should just be 33% dirt.
Let's see... It is tricky, as this person would be going against the advice of another Revenue member.
In early 2024, someone here did get Revenue to change this error on their account.
So, even if revenue have a rule book on this (DIRT and /or DIRT and PRSI), they are not following it in all cases.
Morning all,
I thought the interest is applied monthly on the N26 account. Would this be the first working day of the month or the one month anniversary of the account opening? I have a standard account with them, but I haven't seen anything yet.
Many thanks,

I'm unable to screenshot the app, but it shows under finances, and it's called Instant Savings - which if you press on it, it will show your current interest rate etc.Many thanks for this- nothing applied yet. I'm just wondering if I need to move it to a specific space on the account.
Best,

All sorted - thanks for the tip!I'm unable to screenshot the app, but it shows under finances, and it's called Instant Savings - which if you press on it, it will show your current interest rate etc.
It's not just the main account, it's a separate IBAN and everything.
I think the instant savings is the way to go for now. Every day you earn interest and it arrives into your account on the first day of the month. It is also super easy and INSTANT to move money between the Savings Space and Main Account. Remember, to look for tab FINANCES for the savings space.Hi there, I've just seen the instant savings option and have set it up on my account. Delighted to see this and get some good interest on my savings. My question is, I use a lot of the sub accounts for long term savings for eg a holiday, new car etc. It would seem this money would be better in my instant savings account accruing interest but there doesn't seem to be a sub account option within the instant savings account. Am I missing a feature or is this not possible? I like to see how much I have saved towards each goal rather than just having it all lumped together in one account. I've messaged N26 via the app but no response as of yet. Thanks,
