A clear, transparent charging structure
We follow a responsible pricing approach that includes reducing our charges as our business grows. We have reduced our charges at least 18 times since 2008, delivering ever-increasing value for money.
100% of cash interest paid to clients
Unlike many of our competitors, we repay all interest earned on client money to clients and in 2025 we paid over £210 million to clients in cash interest. The rate of interest we pay varies in line with the rates available from the banks we use.
Where other platforms choose to retain cash, this acts as a cost to you. This is a relevant consideration when assessing whether you are paying fair value for your platform.

Where you hold more than one wrapper of the same type, you will only be charged one wrapper fee per wrapper type each quarter.
The quarterly fee for the Personal Pension Plan, SIPP and JISA wrappers will be waived if you are in a linked family group until you reach age 18, at which point the quarterly fee will become effective.
A single quarterly PP or SIPP wrapper fee will apply if you are in a linked family group. The single fee applies to PP and SIPP wrappers separately and will be split equally between those within the family group that hold a PP or SIPP pension. If applicable, the quarterly fee can be taken from the wrapper of a nominated client within the group.
Dealing charges
There are no charges for trading OEICs or unit trusts. Dealing charges only apply when trading assets that are listed on a stock exchange, for example equities or exchange traded funds.
For each transaction to buy or sell investments listed on or admitted to a stock exchange: | |
|---|---|
Single transaction | Up to £3.75 per transaction (economies apply; this £3.75 charge is shared amongst clients where more than one client is requesting the same transaction for the same investment at the same time) |
Phased transactions | Up to £1.00 per transaction |
Regular transactions | Up to £0.50 per transaction |
Express trades | £10 per transaction |
Please note: different charges will apply when we use other parties to execute transactions and these are applied proportionately to all clients. Third-party dealing charges vary by security type, market and transaction value.
