When you’re building your Personal Investment Plan, the first question you will be asked is whether you would like to open an ISA or a General Investment Account. Select ‘ISA’ to create an Investment ISA Plan. Under the current rules, you can have as many ISAs of each type you want (excluding Lifetime ISAs and Junior ISAs), and you can split your annual ISA allowance between them however you like.
If you’re likely to exceed your ISA allowance, you can simply set up a General Investment Plan to invest additional funds. There’s no extra cost for having two or more Plans.
The ISA limit and maximum you can save each year is £20,000. The tax year runs from the 6th of April to 5th of April the following year. Under the current rules, you can have as many ISAs of each type you want (excluding Lifetime ISAs and Junior ISAs), and you can split your annual ISA allowance between them however you like.
Nothing at all. A Stocks and Shares ISA and an Investment ISA are just different names for tax-free investments.
Yes, you can do an ISA transfer from your previous years' Investment ISAs, Innovative Finance ISAs, or Cash ISAs to another investment ISA provider at any time. Transfers don't impact your current year’s ISA allowance at all, so you can still invest this tax year’s full ISA limit as well as transfer existing ISAs over.
However, please ensure to use a transfer form. If you withdraw the money you pay in, you'll lose your tax-efficient benefits on that money. To arrange a transfer, simply create a Wealthify ISA Plan, then complete our simple ISA transfer form. We’ll arrange everything else.
If you’re an existing customer, simply head to your Dashboard and use the ‘transfer in’ button on your home screen. You can then choose whether you want to transfer your money into an existing Plan, or create a new one.
Yes, you can transfer your Wealthify Stocks and Shares ISA to either a Stocks and Shares ISA or a cash ISA with a different provider. If you want to transfer money you’ve invested in a Wealthify ISA in the current tax year, then you must transfer all of it, whereas previous years’ ISAs can be transferred in whole or in part. It’s worth checking with your new ISA provider for any restrictions or charges they may apply to transferring ISAs. Wealthify will never charge you for transferring ISAs in or out.
ISA Plans offer tax-efficient benefits compared to a Regular Investment Plan. With a Stock and Shares ISA, you won’t pay any capital gains tax or UK income tax on your returns. The other main difference with a Stocks and Shares ISA Plan is that you can only pay in up to your annual ISA allowance each year. Regular Wealthify Plans do not limit the amount you can invest, but you will pay tax on your returns.
Yes. The fee you pay is a percentage of the combined value of all your Wealthify Investment Plans.
Yes, you can withdraw funds from your ISA plan at any time, without penalty. Since both our Stocks and Shares ISA and Cash ISA are flexible, you can also withdraw and replace funds within the same tax year without affecting your annual ISA allowance.
Under current tax rules, you can contribute your annual £20,000 allowance to as many Cash ISAs and Investment ISAs as you like per tax year to take advantage of your tax-efficient savings benefits (this does not include Lifetime ISAs and Junior ISAs). These ISAs can be with the same, or different providers.
You can also create as many ISA investment plans within your Wealthify account as you like in one tax year, as long as the combined total contributions you make to these plans does not exceed annual allowance. So, if you have various goals in mind, you can create different ISA pots for each one.
You can open an ISA with Wealthify if you:
Are over 18
Are UK tax resident
Yes, if you are a UK tax resident (England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland) you can use all – or part of – your annual tax-efficient savings allowance of £20,000 (current tax year) to invest in a Stocks and Shares ISA with Wealthify. We don’t offer Innovative Finance ISAs or Lifetime ISAs.
