What is a Cash ISA?

A Cash ISA is an individual savings account that you can use to earn interest on your money. You can save up to £20,000 into a Cash ISA each tax year, and the interest you earn is completely tax-free.

With the Moneybox Cash ISA, you’ll earn 5.17%* AER (variable) on balances of £500 or more, which includes a bonus rate of 0.47% for your first 12 months.

A lower interest rate of 0.75% AER (variable) applies whenever your account balance is less than £500. It also applies for the rest of your current 12-month period from your fourth withdrawal. The number of withdrawals you can make without impacting your rate will reset each year on the date you opened your Cash ISA.
