We analyze accumulation of ultracold neutrons (UCN) in a superfluid-helium converter vessel surrounded by a magnetic multipole reflector. Employing formulas valid for trapped UCN in mechanical equilibrium we solved the rate equation and obtained results for the saturation density of low field seeking UCN for any field strength of the multipolar field. The addition of magnetic storage can increase the density and energy of the UCN produced and serves to mitigate the effects of wall losses on the source performance. This work was performed in preparation of the UCN source project SuperSUN at the ILL.
