Pension Transfer
Transferring your old pensions to Wealthify couldn’t be simpler and comes with a whole host of benefits:
✓ Low annual management fee of 0.6% per year which includes the expert management of your Plan, taking the hassle out of saving for retirement
✓ When your pot reaches £100,000 get a reduced fee of 0.3% on any balance above that, meaning you get to keep more of your money
✓ Manage your pension online or on our award-winning app
The value of your pension could go down as well as up. Tax treatments depend on your individual circumstances (and could change in the future)

"Wealthify have been superb for my pension...
Wealthify have been superb in bringing my multiple modest pension pots together. They were really helpful when one pension provider was unresponsive. Using Welathify has led to a much better return on my investment than would have happened without their pension product. I also like how they communicate what's happening with the fund and why the investment strategy changes. I feel my pension is in excellent hands."

Can I combine my pensions?
You may have several pensions with different providers, which can happen when you change jobs and leave an old workplace behind. Combining these old pensions together with one provider is known as pension consolidation and can make it easier to keep track of your pension pot.
Thankfully, combining your pensions with Wealthify is easy! Just let us know which pensions you want to combine, and we'll bring them all together into your Wealthify Pension.
With investing, your capital is at risk. The tax treatment of your investment will depend on your individual circumstances and may change in the future.
New to Wealthify Pensions?
If you're just setting out on your journey to get better control over your pensions, you don’t have to commit all of your hard-earned pensions at once. If you’d prefer, you can elect to transfer just part of your pension and transfer the rest at a later date if that feels right for you.
Simply start your transfer and select how much of your existing pension(s) you’d like to transfer using our Plan Builder.
