Only customers who make their first top-up within the campaign period are eligible for this offer. This could be either new customers who sign up within the campaign period or current customers who have never topped up their Freetrade account prior to 1 December 2023.
Customers who have previously topped up their Freetrade account are not eligible for this offer.
Yes, you can make several deposits that total £200 - it doesn’t have to be a lump sum.
Bear in mind that you need to top up with £200 net. This means we will add all your deposits and deduct all your withdrawals during the campaign period to determine your net funding amount.
For example, if you deposit £200, but then withdraw £100, your net funding amount is £100.
Cash Investments are a collection of low-risk ETFs from Freetrade. They track or try to outperform overnight rates, like the fed funds rate or Sterling Overnight Index Average (SONIA), or invest in ultrashort investment grade bonds.

Free shares chosen for this offer are £UESD and $ERNA from our collection of Cash Investments. If you qualify, you will receive a bundle of these instruments (either a mix of both or all of the same one) with a total value of approximately £20.
Your free shares will drop into your General Investment Account between 27 and 31 December 2023. If your net minimum funding drops below £200 by the time of awarding, you won’t qualify for the offer and won’t receive your free bundle of shares.
⚠️ Important: You’ll need to keep a net total of £200 in your account for at least 12 months after the campaign end date. In case the net funding of your account drops below £200, we have the right to claw back the free reward or an equivalent cash amount.
