Walter de Oude, CEO and Founder of Singlife shares, “We decided to flip savings products upside down by giving customers a higher interest rate for the money that sits in the bottom of their account without lock-ins. This is designed to simplify saving and do away with the fear of lock-ins that often keeps customers’ money in low interest earning accounts.”

“Today’s consumers are looking for simpler ways to make their money work harder. We want to help our customers manage, grow and protect their savings, unlocking the true potential of their money. We strive to provide customers with a seamless experience, ultimately putting the power back into their own hands,” adds in Walter. “For instance, customers can now save for their holidays through our insurance savings plan, and then when travelling, receive instant access to their savings and no FX charges on overseas spend.”
