You shouldn’t have to change your life to get the most out of your account. Switch today and start earning cashback with:
GoREWARDS is our exciting way of rewarding current account customers with cashback from a wide range of your favourite high street and online brands, when you pay by Visa Debit Card.
By registering for GoREWARDS, every week you will receive personalised offers for the kind of things you like to buy. As long as you're using your Visa Debit Card and redeeming your offers, you should begin to notice cashback appearing from time to time in your Explore Account.
Once you’ve received your Visa Debit Card simply register here. Learn more about how GoREWARDS works.
Check out our list of Frequently Asked Questions and start redeeming today. Each offer can vary but you will find the offer terms once you are signed in to GoREWARDS.
Every time you pay with your card in-store or online, you‘ll get 10c back. And as you keep using your card, we’ll keep rewarding you. You can earn up to €5 per month. So for example if you were to use your card to pay once a day that’s an average of €3 cashback each month.
Please note, that pending transactions must be processed by the Merchant before qualifying for 10c back as you pay. Please be aware this may affect your monthly Rewards Total.
We‘ve partnered with some of Ireland’s leading brands, such as Sky, SSE Airtricity, and Circle K to bring you great savings on your regular bills. Whether you are a new or existing customer with our partners you can get up to 5% cashback when you pay by Direct Debit.

With the Explore Account you’re always in control of what you pay with a flat €6 monthly fee for maintaining the account. There are no day-to-day transaction fees for using your Visa Debit Card, or for other things like Direct Debits and Standing Orders. There may be other charges for things like Government Stamp Duty on your debit card, unpaid items, or if you use an ATM outside the Eurozone.
Account partners features and benefits are subject to change.
See our Terms & Conditions and Personal & Business Banking Charges booklet for more information. Available to personal customers over 18. eStatements only.

Changing your bank provider is a simple two part process: Opening your account and Switching. Once you've opened your account with us, we'll manage the switch process with just a little help from you.
The first thing to know is that there is no need to drop in to your old bank if you want to switch your account; just come straight to us and we'll open your new account, and ensure it’s up and running within 10 working days of the Switch Start Date.
Whether you phone us or drop into a branch, one of the forms we'll ask you to complete is the account switching form. Here you'll indicate your Switch Start Date. We'll help you pick a date that suits you best.
We'll send this form to your old bank and they will send you a list of your Standing Orders and Direct Debits to review. Your old bank will send your Direct Debit originators your new account details so that all of your Direct Debits can be transferred over. We'll take care of any Standing Orders.
We'll let you know when your switch is complete.
