Our awards cabinet
We're really proud of all the awards we've won for our Stocks and Shares ISA: Boring Money’s Best Buy ISA (four times in a row from 2020 to 2023); Good Money Guide’s Best Managed Stocks and Shares ISA (2023); and the Personal Finance Awards’ Best Investment ISA (2021).
Here's just a small selection of the other 60+ awards we've won since launching in 2016.
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. At Wealthify, we offer a flexible Stocks and Shares ISA, meaning you’re able to withdraw money from your account and deposit it back in within the same year — without affecting your annual 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.

How have Wealthify Investment Plans performed?
The past performance data shown represents real transactions we've carried out for actual customer Plans across each of our five Investment Styles. When it comes to investment performance, if you’d invested in one of our Original Confident Plans from the very beginning (29 February 2016), you’d have enjoyed a 47.88% return so far (up until 29th November, 2024). You can see projections for how your ISA could grow moving forward by using our Plan builder as you Start your ISA.

Ethical
Of course, we experienced the ups and downs of the market along the way and you could get back less than you put in. Although we cannot rely on past performance to predict future results investing for the long-term (5 years or more) typically delivers positive returns. These figures are after all fees have been taken (based on 0.60% p.a Wealthify management charge), and are based on the performance of Plans worth more than £100 and will be different for Plans below that amount.

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 current tax year's Stocks and Shares ISA, you will lose that portion of your ISA allowance.
With our flexible Cash ISA, however, you can withdraw and replace funds within the same tax year, without affecting your annual ISA allowance.
