*Examples of stocks that are at or above the minimum value you could get with your ISA portfolio size (as at 22 September 2021). Share prices go up and down. We will assess that a share's value meets the minimum value threshold at the point of purchasing, based on independent third party data feeds, at our sole discretion.
**Bear in mind you can deposit a maximum of £20,000 into your 2021/22 ISA. To receive a free share valued at £300 or more, you will need to transfer an existing ISA you hold with another provider.
How do you determine my ISA portfolio size?
We will look at the amount deposited into your ISA in the first 14 days of you opening it.
For transfers, your ISA will be valued at whichever is higher:
A) Cash and positions value at time of awarding, or
B) Total value of the transfer when it arrives in your new Freetrade ISA
When does this offer end?
This offer is only for ISAs opened and funded between 23 September and 30 November 2021.
If you are transferring an ISA, you have until 31 January 2022 for your transfer to be completed and to be eligible for the award.
What if I deposit or transfer more money into my ISA after I receive my free share?
You can only receive one free share under this offer. If you deposit more money after you receive your free share, you won’t qualify for an additional award.
If you have any queries about this, email freeshare@freetrade.io.
I don’t see the free share in my ISA!
Due to rules around the ISA annual allowance, your free share will be awarded to your General Investment Account (GIA).
What if I want to close or withdraw from my ISA?
If you close or withdraw from your Freetrade ISA within one year of receiving a free share under this offer, the free share you received will be forfeited. The one year starts from the date you open the ISA.
If you have sold the free share before closing the ISA, you will have to repay to Freetrade the value of the free share at the time of awarding.
