Cash ISA FAQ

Everything you need to know about Cash ISAs, allowances, and managing your tax-free savings.

A Cash Individual Savings Account (ISA) is a tax-efficient savings account available to UK residents. Any interest earned within a Cash ISA is completely free from UK Income Tax and Capital Gains Tax.

The total ISA allowance for the 2024/2025 tax year is £20,000. You can split this allowance across different types of ISAs (e.g., Cash ISA, Stocks and Shares ISA), but the total combined contributions cannot exceed £20,000.

An Easy Access Cash ISA allows you to withdraw your money at any time without penalty, though interest rates may vary. A Fixed Rate Cash ISA locks your money away for a set period (e.g., 1 to 5 years) in exchange for a guaranteed, typically higher, interest rate.

Yes. Withdrawals from a Cash ISA do not count towards your annual ISA allowance. Furthermore, many providers offer ‘flexible’ ISAs, allowing you to replace withdrawn funds within the same tax year without it affecting your £20,000 allowance.
