Prize Bonds are a State Savings product which, instead of paying interest, offers bond holders the chance to win cash prizes every week.
Prize Bonds are an integral part of the wider range of Ireland State Savings products offered to retail customers by the National Treasury Management Agency (NTMA).
The scheme is operated by the Prize Bond Company on behalf of the NTMA. While the Prize Bond Company is a joint venture between An Post and FEXCO all money is placed directly with the Irish Government under the management of the NTMA.
An Post will make contact with the individual who purchased the Prize Bond in 2002 and their highlighting the importance of updating your address if you move location.
