Pros and cons
Pros
- Rate of 17.47% to 20.23% on an easy-access account, well above the 3.08% median for savings accounts on the site.
- The account kind is easy access, and Instant Savings pays withdrawals at any time with no fees.
- Deposits sit under FDIC up to USD 250,000, so a named protection scheme sits behind the balance.
- Monthly Savings withdrawals are free when scheduled ahead of month end, and instant withdrawals are unaffected.
Cons
- The rate is variable, so the 17.47% to 20.23% on offer is not locked in for a term.
- Support runs on help centre and community only, so help comes in writing rather than by phone.
Who it suits
- Savers who want a high variable rate and can reach the balance at any time.
- Anyone holding a US dollar balance who wants the deposit inside FDIC up to USD 250,000.
- People who want a scheduled monthly withdrawal alongside instant access.
Who should look elsewhere
- Plazo ES, if a headline rate of 24.19% matters more than instant access.
- AXI Card Tarjeta y Credito, which lists 21.59% and suits readers chasing the headline figure.
- PayPal Colombia, where the headline rate of 3.3% leaves savers earning less.

Frequently asked questions
What rate does Thndr pay on savings?+
Thndr pays a variable rate of 17.47% to 20.23% on its savings clouds. The rate type is variable, so the figure can change over time instead of being locked for a term, which suits readers comfortable watching the balance grow rather than fixing a return.
Can I withdraw my money at any time?+
Instant Savings withdrawals can be made at any time with no fees, and the account kind is easy access, so there is no notice period to serve. Monthly Savings works differently, because those withdrawals follow a set schedule rather than being instant.
Is there a fee for taking money out of Monthly Savings?+
A Monthly Savings withdrawal is free when scheduled a couple of business days ahead of the last Tuesday of the month, and a fee applies when it is left late. The help centre under help centre and community sets out that schedule, and instant withdrawals are unaffected by it.
Is my deposit protected?+
Deposits sit under FDIC up to USD 250,000, the protection scheme named for the account. The provider is Axis Markets BV, so the terms are worth reading to see how the balance is held against that cover before you commit money.
Who runs Thndr and which regulators are involved?+
The service is provided by Axis Markets BV. Thndr Securities Brokerage is licensed by the Financial Regulatory Authority (FRA) of Egypt under licence 804, Thndr Financial Ltd sits under the FSRA of ADGM for US and UAE markets, and FINRA covers US execution through Alpaca Securities LLC.
How do I get help with the account?+
Support runs on help centre and community, so questions go to the help centre in writing or to other users in the community. The savings rules, including the withdrawal schedule and the conditions for a free monthly payout, are documented in that help centre.
How does the rate compare with other savings accounts?+
Thndr's 17.47% to 20.23% sits well above the 3.08% median rate for savings accounts on the site. AXI Card Tarjeta y Credito lists 21.59% and Plazo ES lists 24.19%, so both head higher on the headline figure alone.
