What is Wealthify?

If you're thinking about opening an Investment ISA, General Investment Account, or Stocks and Shares Junior ISA, Wealthify could be just what you need to get started. Wealthify helps you invest your money simply, without all the confusing jargon and puzzling charts.

All you need to do is tell Wealthify about your investment goals, how you want to reach them, and the risk level you’re comfortable with.

Remember, investments can fall as well as rise, and you could get back less than you put in. 

The tax treatment of your investment will depend on your individual circumstances and may change in the future.

  • Investments that suit you

    Investment styles range from Cautious to Adventurous — and you can choose an Ethical Plan if that matches your values.

  • Simple withdrawals

    You can withdraw your cash anytime, with no penalties. The funds in a Junior ISA can only be drawn out when the child reaches 18, at which point the funds legally belong to them.

  • Easy-to-use app

    Wealthify’s app makes tracking investment performance easy, with the option to use an online dashboard, if you prefer.

How much it costs

Wealthify believes in keeping fees low and transparent, so you can get the most from your money. Unlike some providers, you won’t be charged to deposit or withdraw money, transfer or close your Plan.

You’ll pay one monthly fee that’s made up of two parts: 

  1. 0.6% for managing your investments
  2. 0.16% for average investment costs (or 0.7% for Ethical Plans)

Your fee is based on the value of your investments, so the exact amount will change from month to month. Here's an example of what your first month's fee could be if you invested £5,000.

wealthify fee 0.6% £2.50 + average investment costs 0.16% £0.67 = first month fee £3.17

The illustration above is based on an investment of £5000, with a monthly Wealthify charge of 0.6% equal to £2.50, and monthly average investment costs of 0.16% at £0.67. This gives a first-month fee of £3.17. Wealthify charge one fee for management costs, which is calculated on an annual basis but shown as a monthly fee for clarity.

How it works

Step 1 of 3

Choose

Set the risk level you’re comfortable with, with five choices from ‘Cautious’ to ‘Adventurous’. You can pick from ethical investments, too, if that fits with your values.

Step 2 of 3

Check

You’ll answer some quick suitability questions, to check if your chosen investment account and investment style is right for you.

Step 3 of 3

Sit back

Wealthify’s investment experts will then manage and monitor your Investment Plan, based on your choices.

Before you apply

A few things you need to know before you can open an account.

The tax treatment of your investment will depend on your individual circumstances and may change in the future. 

To open a Wealthify account you need to be:

  • Over 18
  • A UK tax resident
If you're looking to open an ISA there's a few more things you must also consider:
  • Whether you’re within the maximum allowance each year - currently £20,000 across all ISAs you have, or £9,000 for junior ISA
  • Shouldn’t have opened or be contributing to a stocks and shares ISA, other than a lifetime ISA, this tax year (from 6 April to 5 April)

And if you're transferring an ISA, bear in mind:

  • It doesn’t count towards your ISA allowance, unless you paid into an ISA this tax year
  • You can transfer an ISA you’ve paid into this tax year, but you have to transfer the whole amount
  • You might be charged by your current provider, so check before you do anything
  • It can take between 3 to 6 weeks to cash in, transfer and reinvest your money – your investments won’t be invested in the markets during some of this time
