You’ve probably seen offers from lots of banks out there for a time-limited promotional rate – a good deal for a bit but, when it’s done, your money isn’t earning nearly what it should be.
But what if you could have a top-tier promotional rate and an everyday rate higher than any of the big banks? Because you can.

Right now, you can get 5.00% interest for four months* when you open a new Manulife Bank Advantage Account. When your promotional rate ends, you’ll still have one of the strongest everyday high interest rates in Canada (currently 2.85% as of May 24, 2023. Rates are subject to change). ** And, with no monthly fees and full access for everyday banking, earning high interest everyday has never been so easy.

The interest rate environment today makes this an ideal time to take your savings to new heights. Applying can take as little as five minutes.

Charitable giving is a powerful tool that helps you enrich the lives of Canadians in the communities around you. Every year, thousands of non-profit organizations in Canada rely on others to help make an impact through a charitable donation of cash or gifts in kind.



From a financial perspective, this not only benefits the registered charity but donors too! Donors can use their donation tax receipt to reduce their taxes payable in that year, or they can choose to carry the amount forward (up to five years).



While giving can be simply donating directly to the registered charity, did you know there are other ways to give, too?
