Vienna, 31 July 2025 – New clients of Scalable Capital’s investment platform in Austria will receive 3% interest p.a. from August 1 on cash balances of up to €500,000 in the PRIME+ Broker and up to €50,000 in the FREE Broker, forwarded from partner banks and qualifying money market funds.* This is currently the highest interest rate in Austria.
The interest is calculated daily based on the non-invested cash amount in the Broker and paid out quarterly. Clients maintain full flexibility with deposits and withdrawals at any time. Cash balances are safeguarded in accounts with partner banks such as Deutsche Bank and in the money market funds of J.P. Morgan Asset Management, DWS or BlackRock.
This exclusive offer applies to new clients in Austria until the end of the year. Existing clients continue to receive a forwarded interest rate of 2% p.a. (variable).
“In a market environment where interest is passed on to clients reluctantly if at all, we are setting a clear statement: 3% interest p.a. on savings - flexible and calculated daily. This campaign provides our Austrian clients with stability and complements our strong investment offering, underlining our long-term commitment to one of our core markets”, says Martina Forsthuber, Country Manager Austria at Scalable Capital.
Interest helps to reduce the loss of value of savings due to inflation, but clients shouldn’t overlook investments in securities for real wealth accumulation. Clients of the Scalable Broker are able to invest in ETFs, stocks, funds, bonds, crypto currencies, derivatives and private equity. For €4.99 per month (cancellable at any time), PRIME+ offers trading without order fees, an unlimited number of savings plans in ETFs, funds, or stocks, and many more features for investing. With the FREE Broker there is no monthly fee and trades are charged at €0.99 per trade, except for purchases of ETFs from PRIME partners from €250 order volume.**
It takes just a few minutes to open an account, and it can be done entirely online with video identification.
* New clients opening a Scalable Broker account in Austria for the first time starting on August 1, 2025, receive 3% interest p.a. fixed on up to €500,000 in PRIME and €50,000 in FREE until 31 December 2025 (promotion period). Interest on uninvested cash balances is forwarded from partner banks and qualifying money market funds. The allocation of cash balances is variable and takes into account available capacities, conditions and client activity. Balances at partner banks are protected up to €100,000 per client per bank under the statutory deposit guarantee scheme. For qualifying money market funds, instead of the statutory deposit guarantee scheme, European investor protection rules UCITS apply regardless of the amount. Please note our risk information on the safekeeping of cash balances. Further information on interest is available here.
