Each tax year the UK government sets an ISA allowance. It’s the total amount of money you can put into ISAs each year.
The ISA allowance for the 2022/23 tax year (which ends on 5th April 2023) is £20,000.
The Freetrade ISA costs £3 per month. We don’t charge a percentage account fee,
so your investments can grow without your account fees growing too.

You'll be charged for your ISA on the day of the month you sign up and that day each month thereafter. If you are a Freetrade Plus member, your ISA is free.
No, we don’t charge you anything for transferring your stocks and shares ISAto Freetrade. However, your current provider may charge, so please check directly with them.
If you cancel your Plus subscription, your monthly ISA payment will continue at £3 per month as long as you have an open ISA.
Unfunded ISAs will still be subject to the monthly fee. If you’d like to close your ISA, head to your profile area in-app and ‘Manage my ISA’.
You can have more than one ISA. Which means you could have a Cash ISA and a Stocks and Shares ISA at the same time. You could also have a few stocks and shares ISAs that you have built up over the years with different providers.
There is a catch though, each tax year you can only open or top up one of each type of ISA account.
So for example, you can top up one stocks and shares ISA and one Cash ISA in the same tax year. But you can’t top up two stocks and shares ISAs in the same tax year.
