A Current Account's interest rate is fixed 0.25% for an OP cooperative bank owner-customer. Earning interest requires that the account and owner-customer membership are with the same OP cooperative bank. If the account has more than one account holder, all account holders must be owner-customers at the OP cooperative bank that holds the account. For customers other than owner-customers, the deposit interest rate is fixed 0.00%.
Calculation and payment of deposit interest
The Current Account's deposit interest rate is calculated on the lowest balance of a calendar month. The lowest balance is based on the daily closing balance.
The deposit interest will annually be added to the account's funds on 1 December and it can be withdrawn before mid-December, unless otherwise agreed in the account agreement. You can check the interest payment day from your account agreement. You can find the electronic account agreement in My archive. The paper account agreement has been sent by post or given at the meeting.
Tax treatment
Tax at source is charged on each interest payment. You do not need to report the deposit and earned interest in taxation.

The transaction limits relate to:
