FSCS Protection
The Financial Services Compensation Scheme
Moneybox is covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) up to £85,000 per person for claims relating to investment products. Moneybox does not hold your money itself, it uses third party banks. The banks we partner with are covered by the FSCS. You are covered up to £85,000 per person per bank for your total eligible deposits with a particular bank, whether that is deposited through Moneybox, other providers, or directly with the bank.
Here we explain where your money is held so you can understand what banks you might need to consider in relation to FSCS cover.
