As of January 24, 2026, we’ve gathered the top 10 digital banks that provide the highest interest rate for your savings account. Do note however, that these banks do offer promos which go slightly higher than their average interest rates, so always make sure to keep an eye out for those. Additionally, we will only be looking at savings accounts and will not be discussing time deposits.

BPI BanKo

Annual Interest Rate: 5%

BPI BanKo’s annual interest rate currently goes as high as 5%, without any promos. Though with the year just starting, expect some promotions appearing anytime now.

Signing up is quick easy, only requiring one valid ID. What’s great about BanKo is that there is no required initial deposit  upon sign up, do make sure you deposit any amount within 30 days to avoid account closure. In order to reach that 5% interest however, once must deposit at least PHP 5,000 and with a maximum amount of PHP 1,000,000. Once going past that the maximum amount, interest will decrease to 0.0625%.

RCBC DiskarTech Savings

Annual Interest Rate: (4.88%)

Coming in number 2, we have RCBC providing their customers with 4.88% annually. Similar to BanKo, there is no need for an initial deposit upon signing up.

What is different, however is the maximum amount placed into your account before reaching that 4.88%. In order to reach and maintain their annual interest, users must have a balance between PHP0 – PHP 49,700. Once reaching PHP 49,700.01 or higher, your account will no longer earn interest, as the total amount of your savings plus interest can only go up to PHP 50,000.

Additionally, since DiskarTech is under RCBC your accounts will also count as Basic Deposit Accounts under RCBC. This then covers their users with PDIC insurance.
