Open an account in 3 steps
1. You answer a few questions
We’ll find out how you feel about risk and how much you want to invest.
Get started with a minimum £500 investment. You can also add a monthly payment from £100 if you want to.
2. You get an investment plan
We’ll show you how we’ll invest your money, based on your answers. You’ll also get to see how your money could grow over time.
3. We do the rest
We’ll monitor your investments regularly and make changes to keep you to the right level of risk.
And if you need to speak to someone, our investment experts are here to help. Whether it’s a specific question about your investments, or to talk about the latest market events.
Investments that fit how you feel about risk
We’ll ask you a few questions to understand how you feel about risk. Our risk assessment helps us balance risk and reward in a way that’s right for you.
We’ll match you with one of 5 portfolios. For more adventurous investors we’ll match you with a portfolio that includes more shares. For more cautious investors we’ll invest in more bonds.
Shares typically give you a higher return over the long term, but are riskier. Whereas bonds are more stable but offer lower potential returns.
Monitored to keep you on track
We regularly check your investments to make sure your money is still invested at the right level of risk for you. If things have changed we’ll change them for you to get you back on track.
Staying invested at the right level of risk can have a bigger effect on your returns than anything else you do.
Real people, real support

Every penny you save on fees is a penny that can be reinvested for your future. That’s why we manage your investments for an all-in cost of just 0.60%. That includes our account fee, management fee and fund charges.

Things to consider
You can apply for a Stocks and Shares ISA if:
- you’re at least 18 years old
- you’re a UK resident
- you do not live in the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man
- you’re not a US tax resident or US citizen
You can pay in up to £20,000 each tax year (from 6 April to 5 April). This is called your ISA allowance and is the total amount you can pay into all your ISAs in one tax year.
Enjoy guidance from real human experts, at a fraction of the cost of our competitors:
- management fee 0.30%
- account fee 0.15% of your investments (capped at £375 per year)
- fund fee 0.15% (including variable transaction fees)
That’s just 0.60% per year in total. So for example, if you invested £1,000, it would cost you £6.
The minimum to join the service is a single payment of £500. You can also set up a monthly payment from £100 if you want to. You can change this amount whenever you like.
