First Home Saver prize draw

Save and you could win £10,000

Saving for your first place isn’t always straight forward. One month you’re on it, the next something comes up. It happens.

That’s why, each month from May to December 2026, we’re giving £10,000 to 1 lucky person who has a First Home Saver with us. Every £100 increase in your balance that month equals 1 entry.  Aged 18+. T&Cs apply.

To be eligible for each month’s prize draw, you’ll need to:

  • be a UK resident
  • be aged 18+
  • have an open Santander First Home Saver account
  • increase your account balance by at least £100 each month.
  • We’re going to pick 1 winner at random each month from May to December 2026 to give £10,000, which they’ll get by the end of the following month.
  • Winners will need have a Santander First Home Saver account and increase their savings by at least £100 in the month to gain an entry.
  • You’ll get an entry into each month’s prize draw for every £100 you increase your First Home Saver account balance by during the month.

For example, if you have a balance of £500 in your Santander First Home Saver at the end of May, and a balance of £800 at the end of June, your balance will have increased by £300 in June, meaning 3 entries for June's draw. Maximum 100 entries per customer per month.

  • You don’t need to enter the prize draw and will be automatically entered each month you’re eligible. However, if you wish to opt out, you can do so by emailing your full name, date of birth and address to prizedraws@santander.co.uk. This will withdraw you from all monthly draws.

If you win, we'll try to call you to let you know. If you want to be sure it's us, you can call us back on 0330 9 123 123. When we speak to you on the phone, we'll need you to pass our security checks. We'll only ask you for basic details and won't ask you to provide your account, card or log on details.

1. You can enter if you’re a UK resident aged 18 or over. You can’t enter if you work for Santander UK plc and have been directly involved with the prize draw. You’ll be automatically entered if you meet the eligibility criteria below, unless you opt out (see point 9).

    Winners will be chosen at random. They won’t need to accept the Prize as it’ll be paid straight to their Santander First Home Saver Account (see point 7). If a prize is declined, a new winner will be selected. Maximum 1 prize per customer.

5. Santander won’t offer alternatives to the Prize.
6. You’ll receive an entry into each month’s prize draw for every £100 increase in your Santander First Home Saver Account balance within that month.

If you opened your First Home Saver Account in April, your total balance increase from account opening will be used for May’s draw.

7. Should a winner close their Santander First Home Saver Account before receiving the Prize, the Prize must be paid to a Santander current account, instant access or limited access savings account. Should a winner not hold any of these, they will need to open one before the Prize can be paid.
If a winner has multiple Santander accounts, the Prize will be paid to the account that was most recently opened (including joint accounts). This will happen if we haven’t been able to speak with you in advance.
8. The closing date for entries is 11.59pm on 31/12/2026. The prize draw closes at 11.59pm on 31/12/2026.
