1. What is the Barclays Regular Saver Interest Rate Calculator?

The Barclays Regular Saver Interest Rate Calculator helps you estimate the future value of your regular savings using the Barclays Reward Saver interest rate of 2.23% (as of September 2025). It calculates how much your regular contributions will grow over time with compound interest.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the future value of annuity formula:

\[ FV = PMT \times \frac{(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{n \times t} - 1}{\frac{r}{n}} \]

Where:

\( FV \) — Future Value (GBP)
\( PMT \) — Periodic Payment (GBP per period)
\( r \) — Annual Interest Rate (decimal)
\( n \) — Number of Compounding Periods Per Year (unitless)
\( t \) — Time in Years (years)

Explanation: This formula calculates how regular savings contributions grow with compound interest over time, accounting for the frequency of compounding.

3. Importance of Future Value Calculation

Details: Understanding the future value of regular savings helps in financial planning, setting savings goals, and making informed decisions about investment strategies and retirement planning.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter your regular payment amount in GBP, the annual interest rate as a decimal (e.g., 0.0223 for 2.23%), the number of compounding periods per year (typically 12 for monthly), and the time period in years. All values must be positive.
