Why an ethical everyday deposit account?

While you earn interest, we use your deposits to make the world a better place. We only lend our customers' money to organisations that are making a positive impact for people and planet.

We publish details of every organisation we lend to on our website, so you know how your organisation's money is being used to achieve positive and lasting change.

We connect depositors, savers and investors who want to change the world for the better, with entrepreneurs and sustainable organisations doing just that. It’s how Triodos Bank Group has grown since 1980 to attract 700,000 customers.

Size isn’t important to us, but the quality of relationships we have with our business customers is. You can expect a service from people who share your values, and are focused on helping you get the most out of your relationship with Triodos.

How to apply for a Triodos business or charity account

Applying for any Triodos business or charity account involves just a few quick online eligibility questions and then an online application form. We may also need to request further business documents and ID from you. You can help us to open your account faster by responding to any requests for documents as soon as possible.

To ensure our account is a good fit for your organisation, please make sure you meet our eligibility criteria, and take into consideration that we do not offer a debit or credit card on any of our business or charity accounts, nor do we have standard services to access cash. You will have internet banking access to make payments and a chequebook if required.
