We've compiled a list of some of the top high-interest savings accounts of the 2019 Mozo Experts Choice Awards for Deposits winners.

To win a Mozo Experts Choice Award is incredibly prestigious and banks can’t simply nominate themselves for an award. Our Mozo experts choose each award winner after meticulously analysing their product data and scanning the market to find elite products in each product category. After thoroughly assessing each candidate and identifying those with the highest value offering and market-leading features, our  Mozo experts carefully distinguished the top products as the winners.

On top of all this, the UBank USaver with Ultra Transaction account charges $0 account keeping, overseas ATM withdrawal or foreign exchange rate fees, which goes to show why it won a 2019 Mozo Experts Choice Award in the Regular Saver category, while UBank was crowned as 2019 Mozo Savings Bank of the Year*.
