Frequently Asked Questions

How do I start earning yield with Higlobe Earn?
You can start earning a yield by opting in through a website. You will begin earning yield on your entire Higlobe balance automatically. 

Is there a minimum balance required to earn yield?
No, there is no minimum balance required. You can earn yield on any balance you choose to maintain in your Higlobe account, no matter how small.

How often is yield calculated and paid?
Once you opt-in, you will earn a yield any day in which you have a positive balance in your account for an entire 24-hour day, starting at 0:00 Greenwich mean time and ending at 0:00 GMT on the following day. 

Yield payments will be added to your Higlobe account balance weekly, usually a few days after the end of the week. 

But there is no need to maintain a positive balance for an entire week. Once you opt in to Higlobe Earn, you will earn yield on your balance for any day on which you have a positive balance for the entire day. 

What is the yield rate for Higlobe Earn?
The yield average annual rate is 3% APY. 

Are there any fees for using Higlobe Earn?
Higlobe Earn is free to use for all customers. The only fees apply when converting and withdrawing funds to local currencies, but these are guaranteed to be the lowest conversion costs available.

Can I choose to earn yield on only a portion of my Higlobe balance?
Not currently. If you choose to opt-in, yield will be applied to the full balance that you maintain in your Higlobe account. 

Will I earn yield on my balance on the day that I opt in to Higlobe Earn? 
No. You will only earn yield on balances that are in your account for an entire day, so no yield will be paid on the day that you opt in. Similarly, no yield will be paid on the day that you withdraw your entire balance.

What happens if I opt out of Higlobe Earn and then opt back in on the same day? 

If you opt out of Higlobe Earn, even briefly, and then opt back in on the same day, you will lose eligibility for earnings for that entire day. To earn yield for a particular day, you must remain opted to Higlobe Earn for the full day, from the start of the day until the end of the day (12 am to 12 am), without opting out at any point.

What if my balance increases or decreases part way through the day, for example if I receive a payment, or make a partial withdrawal? How will yield be calculated for that day?
Yield returns for any single day are calculated based on the lowest balance that is in your account on any day. So if your balance increases during the day, yield will be calculated on the lower of the two amounts, amount that was in your account before the increase (though of course you will be credited with yield on the full balance, including the deposit, the following day).  Similarly, if you make a withdrawal in the middle of the day, yield for that day will be calculated based on the balance remaining after your withdrawal.
