Sophisticated
Day-to-DaY Banking
The Coutts Current Account puts you in charge of your money when you need it.
Available to individuals, trustees and personal representatives in sterling, the Current Account is accessible through our Digital Services, and maintains some of our longer standing features, including the Coutts cheque book.
The Current Account comes with an innovative autosweep facility which enables clients to manage account balances between their Current Account and linked Coutts savings accounts. An unsecured, or secured, overdraft facility is also available with the Current Account.
The accompanying Coutts debit card is accepted at retail outlets worldwide, enabling you to transact quickly and conveniently, online, via ATMs or over the phone or the counter. You can pay people or organisations in the UK through Standing Orders, Direct Debits, Faster Payments, CHAPS and banker’s drafts while SWIFT and SEPA euro Credit Transfers are available to pay people or organisations abroad.
The Current Account is available in all major currencies and the debit card with multi-currency capability allows you to spend like a local when travelling abroad.
