Deposits are one of the safest forms of investment, bearing very low risk to the customer. Term deposit – a term deposit that can be terminated anytime during the term. However, doing so will forfeit the accrued interest.


Information on deposit insurance conditions and events when deposits are not insured and when deposit insurance payouts are subject to payment restrictions can be found on the website of the Public Institution „Indėlių ir investicijų draudimas" at www.iidraudimas.lt. Additional information for depositors can be found in Information for Depositor.

Term deposit - what it is?

A term deposit is the process of keeping a specific amount of money in a financial institution for an agreed period of time. The institution pays interest for the time they hold the money. The amount of interest and the payout frequency are determined on the day of signing the deposit contract. Remember that term deposits cannot be terminated until the agreed period of time passes, and no interest will be paid upon early termination.

A term deposit is one of the most reliable ways to generate passive income and to get your money that you set aside for saving working for you. Since the interest rate is agreed in advance, any financial institution is committed to it for the agreed period. This way, your money doesn’t lose value due to inflation or other market changes.

Easy Auto-Renewal with +0.1% bonus

At Saldo Bank you don't have to worry about maturing deposits. You can activate the auto-renewal function at any stage of your deposit in our internet bank and when your deposit matures, it will automatically be renewed with the same period at the interest rate offered that specific date and with a +0.1% interest rate bonus for repeating customers. You have 30 days to cancel an auto-renewed Term Deposit Plus contract.

As an example, you have a 6 months deposit and have activated auto-renewal. When the deposit ends, a new deposit contract automatically starts the following day. If the interest rate for a 6 month long deposit that specific day is 2.6%, your deposit will be renewed with an interest rate of 2.7%. The interest rate bonus is not accumulative.

Term deposit is a financial tool that allows you to keep a specific amount of money in a bank or other financial institution for an agreed period of time, for which the bank or other financial institution pays interest.

This is one of the most stable ways to get passive income and get your money working for you. With term deposits, your money won’t lose so much value due to inflation or other market changes. Irrevocable term deposit can only be cancelled and taken out before term under special circumstances.

In principle, all deposits of private persons are insured by the insurance company. There are exceptions that apply to certain deposits. You can find the information on www.iidraudimas.lt 

Note that the EUR 100 000 deposit insurance limit is per person and not per term deposit agreement.

The key difference between Term deposit and Term deposit Plus is flexibility versus higher returns:

  • Term deposit offers the flexibility to withdraw your funds anytime. However, if you cancel early, you forfeit the accrued interest.

  • Term deposit Plus provides a higher interest rate, maximizing your earnings. In return, your funds are locked until the term ends, with early withdrawal allowed only in exceptional cases or with the bank's approval.

If you prioritize flexibility, term deposit is the better choice. If you want higher returns, term deposit plus is the smarter option.

The shortest term of the term deposit is 1 months, the longest is 120 months.

The minimum term deposit is € 500 and the maximum is € 100 000.

A bank transfer is required to make a deposit at Saldo Bank. Cash deposit is not possible.
