How do I deposit cash into my account?

You can deposit cash into your account at any Post Office or PayPoint location – you only need your Tide card.

Post Office deposits made on weekdays are usually processed within a few minutes. Deposits made late in the day, on a weekend or Bank Holiday, can arrive in your account on the next business day.

You can’t deposit more than:

  • £500 per single deposit (but you can make multiple deposits in a day)

  • £25,000 per month

  • £300,000 per year into your Tide account. 

However, the Post Office have their own limits, and these amounts may vary from branch to branch.

Post Office fees:

  • £2.50 for a deposit of up to £500

  • 0.5% of the deposit if over £500

PayPoint deposits made on weekdays are usually processed within 10 minutes. Deposits made late in the day, on a weekend or Bank Holiday, can arrive in your account on the next business day.

The minimum amount you can deposit at a PayPoint is £10, and the maximum is £500 per day.

PayPoint fees:

  • 3% of the deposit amount

Important: All cash deposit fees are deducted automatically, at the time of processing. The amount you’ll receive in your account is your deposit, minus the fee.
