Pension Plus is a classic deposit, familiar to older citizens since the days of savings books. However, today's retirees are more “advanced” than their peers who retired twenty years ago. Therefore they wait from the bank. And the bank has them.

Sberbank's “Save Online” deposit for pensioners is a good solution for those who are going to replenish their deposit in a non-cash form. Basic conditions for placing funds:

• the rate depends on the size of the down payment and varies from 2.95 to 4.3% per annum;
• minimum contribution amount – any;
• income and expense transactions are prohibited;
• validity period – 1-36 months.

The Sberbank “Replenish Online” deposit for pensioners differs from the previous deposit by the possibility of making additional contributions. The minimum interest rate on it is higher: from 3.45 to 4.25% per annum (including capitalization).

The Sberbank “Record” deposit, beloved by Russians, was a seasonal product and was valid until January 31, 2019. Now it is impossible to open it.

Comparison of deposit rates for pensioners

Sberbank's Pension Plus deposit is a popular, but not the only option for accumulating funds. Its main advantage – the ability to replenish your account and withdraw money – is offset by the low interest rate. Due to active spending and a small average monthly balance, this deposit shows a yield of about 2% per annum.

However, the rule “higher amount – higher rate” applies to all deposits of a credit institution. In the “Online” product line, the balance “fork” operates in the following ranges:

• 1-100 thousand rubles;
• from 100 to 400 thousand rubles;
• over 400 thousand rubles.

Sberbank deposits for pensioners also vary in profitability depending on the period of placement of funds. “Long” deposits are always more profitable than “short” ones, and the rate change step depends on the conditions of a particular product.

In general, the most profitable deposit in Sberbank for pensioners is a specialized deposit with a maximum placement period and a large down payment. The above does not apply to current accounts and products - “wallets”, such as “Pension Plus”.

How to open a deposit for a pensioner in Sberbank

To put money on a regular deposit, you only need a passport as documents. To open a pension account with Sberbank, an additional condition is to reach pre-retirement age (two months before the pension is assigned) or retirement age, or to have grounds for receiving a social pension.

The answer to the question of what documents will be required depends on the client’s status:

• pre-retirement and old-age pensioners present a general passport;
• Recipients of social pensions additionally need to show a pension certificate;
• non-residents are required to present a migration card.

Almost all Sberbank savings deposits for pensioners can be opened online. However, new clients are required to personally present the documents to the operator. Therefore, in this case, you cannot do without a visit to the bank. In the future, it is possible to make any deposits remotely.

Conditions for early closure

All credit institutions draw up deposit agreements in such a way that failure to comply with their terms is punishable by partial or complete write-off of accumulated interest. Exactly how much you lose depends on the terms of the contract. In fact, if the deposit is closed early, the pension savings themselves will remain intact, but Sberbank will withhold interest on them from the principal amount of the deposit.

Today there are several types of deposits for pensioners in Sberbank of Russia. Each banking product has its own favorable conditions and will be useful for you in one case or another. A pension contribution is a convenient opportunity not only to preserve, but also to increase your capital. Interest rates are high and most often do not depend on the amount you want to use.

Deposits for pensioners in Sberbank today have more favorable conditions than deposits for ordinary individuals. See how to get better interest rates in 2020.

Sberbank pension deposits for individuals in 2020

Today, pensioners can open deposits with Sberbank on more favorable terms than other individuals. In particular, Sberbank offers pensioners deposits at the highest interest rates for the selected deposit period, regardless of the amount of money.

For example, if an ordinary citizen wants to deposit money in Sberbank at the maximum interest rate, then he will have to open a deposit in the amount of more than 400 thousand rubles. And a pensioner can open a “Save” deposit in Sberbank at the same interest rates, even if he invests only 1,000 rubles. The difference is noticeable!

If you have reached retirement age after opening a deposit, then its extension is carried out at the maximum interest rate, based on the selected period, i.e. on conditions for pensioners.

However, such favorable conditions are not available for all Sberbank deposits from the basic line of deposits of individuals. They are valid only for deposits: " " and " ".

Pensioners can also open any of the other Sberbank deposits, but without benefits. These can be popular deposits with the possibility of partial withdrawal of money without loss of interest “Manage”. Terms and rates can be viewed

It should be noted right away that preferential Sberbank deposits are for pensioners. This means that if the bank loses its license, which is unlikely, you will be returned an amount of no more than 1.4 million rubles, including interest.

Deposits for pensioners in Sberbank today

In this review, we will look at the current conditions and interest rates of preferential Sberbank deposits for individuals - pensioners.



Sberbank deposits for pensioners in 2020 are represented by a large line and are not limited to a couple of varieties. The list of deposit programs can be regularly viewed on the official website of Sberbank, but you need to pay attention to the special conditions that the bank offers to pensioners. As reviews indicate, Sberbank is the most reliable bank in Russia, but we will now find out how profitable its offers are for pensioners.

Interest on Sberbank deposits for pensioners in 2020

People associate a profitable deposit with profits accrued depending on the interest rate, which is only partly true. It is also necessary to look at the currency (rubles, dollars, euros) of opening and other conditions of maintenance, because the deposit must generate income and at the same time be convenient.

Preferential deposits for pensioners always come with a higher rate, but what parameters the program will have is a more important question. Sberbank’s deposit line includes new programs for all people and established programs for the country’s pension population.

These types of deposits are available to pensioners in 2020:

1. Pension Plus.
2. Replenish.
3. Save.
4. Top up online.
5. Save Online.
6. Record.

To understand which accounts are the most profitable, you need to look at the interest rates on deposits for today, tariffs and conditions.

Sberbank deposit “Pension Plus”

This deposit is intended only for people receiving pension payments from the state and has high interest rates and convenient conditions:

• An account is opened in rubles.
• A person is required to keep at least 1 ruble in his account.
• The deposit can be spent and replenished without restrictions.
• There is no maximum limit set.
• The duration of the program is 3 years.
• Interest rate – 3.5% per annum.
• Quarterly capitalization of interest income.
• Automatic renewal is provided.
• If the account is closed early, the rate remains in its original form and Sberbank pays interest to the client according to the period of actual stay of the money in the account.

The best deposit offers do not always have the highest interest rates. Sberbank offers many deposit programs for individuals, but pensioners should take into account that in their case it is more important to have regular access to money.

The ability to quickly use personal funds in the account makes the Pension Plus time deposit the most optimal.

Sberbank deposit “Replenish” for pensioners

Sberbank offers a program with the possibility of replenishment during the entire validity period in order to regularly increase the amount in the account and receive more profit. For bank clients opening an account under the “Top up” program, the conditions will be as follows:

• The starting investment is from one thousand rubles or one hundred dollars.
• From 3 months to 3 years, the pensioner’s choice of contribution will be valid.
• Every month the depositor can withdraw interest or leave it on the deposit.
• It is prohibited to withdraw money from the deposit other than interest.
• 1 million rubles, 50 thousand dollars are the maximum deposit amounts. For the portion exceeding the limit, 1/2 of the rate established by the contract is charged.
• There is an automatic extension of the deposit.

A distinctive feature of bank deposits for the described preferential category is that the investment amount does not influence the rate; only the selected validity period is important. From the deposit a person will be able to receive a high income, which the rates allow:

Sberbank deposit “Save” for pensioners

High interest is the main advantage of the described banking program, plus convenient conditions:

• The deposit is opened in rubles and dollars.
• The starting investment for the program is 1000 rubles, 100 dollars.
• Validity period – 1-36 months.
• Additional deposits into the deposit account are not permitted.
• Expenditure transactions on deposits of this program are not provided.
• Every month interest is added to the deposit balance.
• A person is allowed to use the interest as he wishes and withdraw it from the account.
• The auto-renewal service is activated.

The "Save" deposit has high rates for both currencies. They depend on the chosen validity period, plus with capitalization the total income will be slightly higher.

The investment amount is not important specifically for pensioners; a minimum contribution is sufficient. The table below contains information on interest rates for both deposit currencies.

Currency	Annual rate (standard and with capitalization) depending on the validity period (months)
	1-2	2-3	3-6	6-12	13-24	25-35	36
Rubles	4.20%	4.35%/ 4.36%	4.75%/ 4.77%	4.90%/ 4.95%	5.00%/ 5.12%	5.00%/ 5.25%	5.00%/ 5.38%
Dollars	0.25%	0.25%	0.55%	1.35%	1.70%/ 1.71%	1.70%/ 1.73%	1.70%/ 1.74%

Sberbank deposit “Replenish online” for pensioners

This deposit cannot be opened in the usual way at a bank branch; you must submit an application in your Sberbank Online personal account. The deposit has similar conditions to the “Replenish” deposit, but the difference is that it has better interest rates due to remote opening.

Note! Only current Sberbank clients will be able to open a profitable deposit online, since only authorized users have access to the system. Login data is issued to the client the first time he contacts Sberbank for any service.

The Sberbank deposit “Replenish online” for pensioners has the following interest rates:

Other time deposits of Sberbank do not have such high rates along with the ability to manage the deposit, and therefore this is a fairly profitable option for the retired population of Russia.

Sberbank deposit “Save online” for pensioners

The conditions are completely duplicated with the “Save” deposit, except for interest rates. Of the opening methods, only Sberbank Online is also available, and therefore, pensioners who are not yet bank clients can open it after registration.

When opening an account in rubles or dollars, pensioners are charged the following rates.

Currency	Annual rate (standard and with capitalization) depending on the validity period (months)
	1-2	2-3	3-6	6-12	13-24	25-35	36
Rubles	4.35%	4.50%/ 4.51%	4.90%/ 4.92%	5.05%/ 5.10%	5.15%/ 5.27%	5.15%/ 5.41%	5.15%/ 5.56%
Dollars	0.35%	0.55%	0.85%	1.65%/ 1.66%	2.00%/ 2.02%	2.00%/ 2.04%	2.00%/ 2.06%

Sberbank deposit “Record”

This is a new offer from the bank, which arrived on the deposit market only in 2018. The deposit is limited in duration (opening is allowed until November 30, 2018) to obtain maximum profit. It is unknown whether the deposit will be extended further with such high rates, and therefore pensioners need to open now. This deposit is opened exclusively in national currency.

The deposit program has the following conditions:

• From 7 months to 1.5 years a person has the right to maintain a deposit with a high rate.
• To open, you will need an initial contribution of 50 thousand rubles (although the amount seems large for pensioners, the income will be felt after six months).
• The maximum investment amount is not limited.
• Sberbank does not allow account replenishment or partial withdrawal of funds.
• Automatic renewal is possible.

Interest rates depend solely on the chosen investment term, of which there are only three. Within each time period, the depositor can choose a day (the deposit agreement immediately indicates the clear number of days the deposit is valid) for closing.

Interest rates on deposits are presented in the table below.

Validity period (months)	Interest rate
7-12	6.5%
13-17	7.0%
18	7.15%

“Record” is the most profitable deposit in Sberbank for pensioners today. It is opened in rubles - pensioners do not need more, the amount is somewhat large, but feasible, interest rates are the highest, and the validity period of the deposit allows you to get a good income.

Important! This deposit has a significant disadvantage - if it is closed early, the investor loses all interest.

How to open a deposit in Sberbank for pensioners?

How to open a deposit for a pensioner depends on the chosen deposit program. According to the standard, there are three options for opening deposits:

1. At a Sberbank branch.
2. Through Sberbank Online (Internet banking or mobile banking).
3. Through a Sberbank ATM.

Deposits “Pension Plus”, “Replenish”, “Save” can be opened only by visiting a branch in person. “Replenish Online” and “Save Online” deposits are opened exclusively remotely through Sberbank Online. The “Record” deposit can be opened in any of three options.

The algorithm for opening a deposit in a bank is as follows:

1. Come to a convenient branch with your passport and pension certificate.
2. Ask the employee to issue a form for opening a deposit for the selected program.
3. Fill out the form.
4. Wait until the consultant enters the person into the database (at the first time).
5. Transfer money to a deposit account yourself in a convenient way, or seek help from a Sberbank consultant.

When using the Sberbank Online system to open a deposit, a pensioner must:

1. Log in to your personal account using your login and password.
2. Enter a one-time SMS code.
3. Go to the “Deposits” section.
4. Check the box next to the selected program.
5. Fill in the deposit details (amount, currency, term, etc.).
6. Enter the card number and the amount to transfer to the deposit account (if you want to immediately deposit money).
7. Check the entered data and confirm the opening.

When working with Sberbank ATMs, everything is even simpler. You must insert the card and enter the PIN code. In the main menu, go through the sections to open a deposit and constantly follow the ATM prompts. If difficulties arise, you can contact a bank employee.

Conditions for early termination of deposits in Sberbank

Early termination is a process when the investor withdraws all money from the deposit ahead of schedule. Interest rates during this process are often very variable and a pensioner should always find out the terms of the program before opening a deposit.

The “Pension Plus” deposit is beneficial in this regard - the rate remains unchanged if closed early. The “Record” deposit account will not be profitable at all; if closed early, the “On Demand” rate will be charged.

But for the rest of the line of deposits (standard programs and those marked “Online”), interest income is calculated after calculating the actual time the money remains in the bank. Regardless of whether the deposit is opened in rubles or dollars, rates for early closure will be set according to the data in the table.

If, according to the terms of the deposit, the maximum deposit amount is not established, then you only need to look at the column in the table “When the deposit amount is less than the limit.”

Calculator

The official website of Sberbank will help you not only find out the conditions of any deposit, but also calculate the benefit from investments for each program. The online calculator is located on each deposit page below.

You need to enter the amount, investment currency, term, check the boxes next to additional parameters of interest, indicate the amount and frequency of incoming or outgoing transactions. The calculator will calculate and show the interest rate, the amount to be issued at the end of the term and the amount of net income.

The best bank for pensioners

Although sometimes the interest on deposits in this bank is lower than in other banking organizations, where the shareholders are only investors and private creditors, the public’s trust in the structure in question not only continues to remain at a high level, but the number of clients is constantly increasing .

If we compare this bank with others, it has a number of advantages, which include the following:

• the largest network throughout the country;
• low interest loans;
• bonus programs;
• a large number of ATMs, terminals, services;
• easy online service;
• network of representative offices abroad;
• state guarantee of deposits.

There are special types of deposits at Sberbank of Russia for pensioners, as a socially vulnerable category of citizens. Particular attention is paid to increasing funds with decent interest. In 2017, according to many financial analysts, this bank was recognized as a leader in a number of parameters.

What should you consider before opening a deposit?

When making a decision, you have to think through different options in order to weed out everything unnecessary. Some are satisfied with the options when they can replenish their account or withdraw money from it at any time. Others, on the contrary, are ready to invest a certain amount and not worry about it for some period. Important components are capitalization and the period for which the account is opened.

The more money the client is going to invest, the more significant the bonuses will be. Also, to get the maximum rate, you need to bet money for a longer period. For one year, the maximum interest rate will be 9.3%. An investment for three years will bring higher returns. At the same time, do not forget that money depreciates every year. Therefore, sometimes even with the maximum tariff, but after a long period, they will remain the same as at the beginning of the investment.

If you intend to save a certain amount for equipment, then a short deposit period is sufficient. However, if there is such a large purchase as a car or an apartment, then the period will, of course, be longer, as will the opportunity to regularly top up the account. By approaching the issue wisely and taking control of your finances, it is easier to acquire things that until recently seemed out of reach.

Types of deposits

In 2017, Sberbank offers various deposits to pensioners. One of them is an investment called “Pension Plus of Sberbank of Russia”. It is convenient because you can store money and, if necessary, withdraw it without charging commissions. However, in terms of benefits it can hardly be the best.

A more worthy place in the ranking is occupied by the “Save” and “Replenish” deposits. In this case, the benefit is achieved regardless of the amount invested. Deposits can be made at bank branches. But the most profitable ones are opened online on the Internet. These types of deposits in Sberbank of Russia for pensioners are called “Replenish online” and “Save online”. The interest on them is higher than in the case of opening in a branch of a banking institution.

Save online

It can be opened for a period of one month to three years. The minimum investment is one thousand rubles. You can neither withdraw nor top up your account. Interest payments are received every month. They are added to the invested amount, due to which income increases. The only opportunity to use account money during this period is the ability to withdraw accrued interest.

Funds can be invested in any currency, but interest rates vary depending on this. Thus, ruble deposits vary from 4.85% to 6.74%, dollar deposits – from 0.01% to 1.26%, and in euros – the percentage is stable and amounts to 0.01%.

Top up online

This contribution is more profitable. It is suitable for those who like to save by setting aside a certain amount every month. The minimum term is three months, and the maximum is three years. The minimum investment amount here is the same as in the previous option. It is one thousand rubles. The minimum amount for replenishment is also one thousand rubles. Money can only be credited, but not withdrawn. However, you can use accrued interest.

The rate varies depending on the chosen currency. A ruble deposit will increase capital from 5.22% to 6.23%, a dollar deposit - from 0.01% to 1.11%, and in euros the percentage is stable and amounts to 0.01%.
