From a Nationwide current account to another Nationwide account

Moving money between Nationwide accounts you own, such as between a current account and a savings account, is called an internal transfer. It’s free. And you can find out how much you can send on our payment and transfer limits page.

How long does a money transfer take between accounts?

The money is usually sent instantly, unless you set the transfer to come out on a future date.

  • Your balance will be updated on both accounts immediately.
  • You’ll earn interest from the date of the transfer.

Current account to credit card

  • Your balance will be updated on the same day in both of your accounts.
  • The new balance and transaction will show online in our Banking app or Internet Bank the next working day.

From a Nationwide savings account to another Nationwide account

If you want to transfer money from one ISA to another ISA, do not withdraw the money from your ISA or move it to your current account. There's a set process you need to follow to make sure your money keeps its tax-efficient benefits.

To withdraw or transfer money from any other savings account, see our guide to withdrawing money from a savings account.


Between your Nationwide account and an external account

Transferring to an external account

As the account is with another building society or a bank, this will count as paying someone new. You'll need to set up your external account as a new payee.

Transferring to your Nationwide account

If you're looking to move money to your Nationwide account from another building society or a bank, you'll need to follow their instructions for paying someone new and set yourself up as a new payee on your non-Nationwide account.

There may be certain instructions for paying into your ISA, bond or savings account from an external account.
