Struggling to save? We’ve come up with a simple way to turn your pennies into pounds
Switch on Save the Change® and when you buy something with your Halifax debit card, we’ll round up the amount to the nearest pound. At the start of the next working day, we’ll transfer the difference into your nominated Halifax savings account.
For example, if your coffee costs £2.20, we’ll transfer 80p from your current account into your savings account.
It’s a clever feature that takes your leftover change and builds it into bigger savings.

An arranged overdraft can act as a short term safety net. You can use it to borrow money up to an agreed limit through your bank account.
Helpful tools - You can use our eligibility checker and cost calculator to check your eligibility and calculate the cost of an arranged overdraft.
Applying for an arranged overdraft - When you have applied for this account, at the end of the application you can apply for an arranged overdraft which you can add right away. You can also apply for one later.
Amending an arranged overdraft - You can reduce or remove your arranged overdraft at any time through Mobile Banking, Online Banking or Telephone Banking or by visiting your branch. But you must repay anything you owe if you want to remove an arranged overdraft or anything over the new reduced limit you want. You can also apply to increase it. Using an arranged overdraft increases your overall borrowing and may affect your credit score.
If you don't have enough money in your account or available arranged overdraft to make a payment, we may either let you borrow through an unarranged overdraft or refuse to make the payment. Missing payments and using an unarranged overdraft can damage your credit score, please get in touch with us as we may be able to help you.
All overdrafts are subject to application and repayable on demand. You must be 18 or over to apply.
