How the Crowd2Fund ISA works

When your ISA funds arrive

When your funds arrive, you will be notified and you can use the Smart-Invest feature to automatically deploy funds into campaigns that match your risk profile. Alternatively, you can select campaigns you choose to invest in from the opportunities page.

Fees

It costs nothing to set-up your IFISA and the only fees we collect is 1% of the value of the repayment. We collect this fee when the repayment is made to you on a monthly basis. You can understand more about our APR and AER here.

Timings to transfer

Often transfers are made from the old ISA managers using a cheque in the post. Sometimes this means the process can take up to three weeks for the funds to appear in your account.

The process can be speeded up if you call your old ISA manager and ask them to expedite the process. We’ll ensure you're kept informed on where the transfer process is.

Flexible ISA

You can withdraw funds from your Crowd2Fund IFISA account at any time.

This will remove the funds from your ISA wrapper, but if you replace them within the same tax year they will become part of your ISA wrapper again and your subscription for that year will not be affected.

Access your capital

You can potentially access your capital by selling an investment to another investor on the Exchange. You define your sale price and list your investment within the marketplace.

Transfer an ISA FAQs

The IFISA is offering investors potentially higher returns of 6 to 18% APR, before fees and bad debts, in comparison to the old Cash ISAs which are between 1.44% to 2.12%.

In addition to the potentially higher returns, investors can also choose to support businesses they like, and this way of investing also helps the economy grow at the same time.

You are able to transfer your old Cash ISA to our IFISA and continue earning tax-free returns on the invested amounts on Crowd2Fund.

We can only accept Cash ISAs, or the cash that is in a Stocks and Shares ISA i.e. stocks and shares would need to be liquidated before the transfer can occur, or the investor would need to have free cash in the Stocks and Shares ISA already.

Past performance and forecasts are not reliable indicators of future results.

Your capital invested is not covered for compensation in the event of a loss by the FSCS.

Tax treatment will depend on the individual circumstances and may be subject to change.

There are no fees for activating an IFISA, for cancelling or transferring out at any time.

You can open more than one IFISA but only subscribe to one IFISA per tax year.

You have subscribed to an IFISA if:

You have added new funds since activating an IFISA.

You added funds to an existing ISA this tax year and then transferred these ISA funds into an IFISA.

If you don’t subscribe to your IFISA within the tax year, i.e. if you don’t add new funds into your IFISA, it will automatically be cancelled at the end of the year.

The tax year runs from 6 April to 5 April.

There is no limit on the amount of existing ISAs you can transfer. However, you will need to complete a new form for each provider.

If you have Cash ISA savings that you have built up in previous tax years, you can transfer as much as you like, or as little as ÂŁ10, to your IFISA. In tax year 2020/2021, you can subscribe up to ÂŁ20,000 across your ISAs.

You can easily withdraw your funds from your IFISA whenever you like.

However, you should be aware that withdrawing funds will remove them from your ISA wrapper, but you can replace these funds within the same tax year without affecting your yearly subscription.

The form is easy to complete and asks for basic details including information about your old ISA provider and your authority for the transfer of funds.

We will need a copy of a valid photo ID for compliance purposes before you start investing.

Once we receive your completed ISA transfer form, we will send it to your old ISA manager to be processed. It should take around 15 days to be processed, but we will keep you updated on progress.

Your funds are not earning interest while in your account. In order to earn interest, you would need to make investments in loan-based campaigns that are IFISA eligible through your Crowd2Fund account.

Your IFISA won’t close when the tax year finishes. You will keep your savings on a tax-free basis for as long as you keep the money in your IFISA account. However, it will close if you do not subscribe that tax year.

You can email your ID to us or directly upload it into your account under "Account > Withdraw funds".
