What is an ISA?

Launched in 1999, ISA stands for Individual Savings Account. ISAs are a tax-efficient way to save or invest up to £20,000 each tax year; this £20,000 is known as your annual ISA allowance.

These are four different types of ISAs: Stocks and Shares ISA (aka Investment ISA); Cash ISA; Innovative ISA, and Lifetime ISA (which has a £4,000 allowance). Even though all four ISAs offer different options and benefits, you can split your annual £20,000 allowance between them.

The great thing about ISAs is that you don’t have to pay capital gains tax or income tax on any of the money you earn. This means you get to keep more of the interest or returns you make!

Transferring an ISA?

Here are a few things to consider

  • You can transfer any Cash ISAs or Stocks and Shares ISAs (Investment ISAs) you have with other providers to Wealthify.
  • When you transfer an ISA to Wealthify, you should always use the official ISA transfer form to retain the ISA tax benefits. 
  • Transferring ISAs from previous tax years doesn’t impact your current ISA allowance, so you can still put up to £20,000 into an ISA this tax year.

Investment FAQs

You can open an ISA with Wealthify if you:

Are over 18

Are UK tax resident

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 withdraw funds from your ISA plan at any time, without penalty. However, if you withdraw money from this year's ISA, you will lose that portion of your ISA allowance. 

Stocks & Shares ISA, Junior ISA & General Investment Account
Yes, they are. Investments in our Stocks and Shares ISA, Junior ISA, and General Investment Account are held by Wealthify itself. Up to £85,000 of your money may be protected under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), as Wealthify is authorised by the FSCS.

This is also the case in regard to any cash held in our investment Plans — as our trusted Banking Partner, ClearBank Limited, is also authorised by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). This protection would apply in the additional instances:
• Money to be invested or paid out;
• Money transferred in the case of a rebalance process;
• Cash Park;
• Or, the percentage of cash held in your Plan(s).

Self-Invested Personal Pension customers
Yes, they are. The custodian of our Self-Invested Personal Pension is Embark Investment Services Limited — part of the Embark Group — the UK’s fastest-growing digital retirement platform. Embark hold your assets separately from Wealthify. So, even if we went into administration, our creditor would not have a claim to your investments.

All investment customers
The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) covers the first £85,000 of your investments. However, it’s essential to understand that the FSCS doesn’t cover you if your investments don't perform as expected, and you get back less than you originally invested. For more information, visit https://www.fscs.org.uk/.

Along with the FSCS cover outlined above, the companies we work with, and Wealthify itself, are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). All assets in our Stocks & Shares ISAs, Junior ISAs, General Investment Accounts, and Self-Invested Personal Pensions will be held in accordance with the FCA's Client Asset (CASS) rules; meaning all parties hold your cash securely and separately from their own. For more information, please read Wealthify's Investment Terms and Conditions.
