For additional information please contact: freeshare@freetrade.io

If I transfer across multiple accounts (GIA/ ISA/ SIPP) will the value be totalled?

No, we will only combine transfer values within each specific investment account.

Free share awarding will be measured at an individual investment account level (GIA, ISA, or SIPP). Multiple transfers into a single investment account will be measured together.

If you transfer funds into all three investment accounts you will have three opportunities to receive free shares, depending on transfer value.

What free share will I get?

Free shares are awarded according to the tier you fall into per account (GIA, ISA or SIPP).

The value of the free share you receive will depend only on the net amount you transfer into each of your GIA, ISA, and/or SIPP accounts (as cash and/or value of investments) between 11 December and 31 January 2024, regardless of the amount you had in your Freetrade account, if any, before.

Remember: If you withdraw or transfer any amounts out of your relevant Freetrade account which causes its value to fall before we award the share, then this lower value will be used to determine whether you get a free share.

When does this offer end?

This offer is for all investment accounts into which transfers of cash or investments have been contributed between 11 December and 31 January 2024.

If you are transferring an account, you have to initiate a transfer before 31 January 2024.

Can you put the free share in my ISA or SIPP?

Due to ISA and SIPP rules, your free share will be awarded to your General Investment Account (GIA).

What if I want to close or withdraw from my account?

If you make a withdrawal or transfer out which causes the value of the Freetrade account to fall or you close your Freetrade account before we award the free share, then this will affect whether you get a free share or the value of any awarded free share, in line with the table above.

How many free shares can I get under this offer?

You may receive either one or several free shares equivalent to the total value of the free share you qualify for.

You will get a free share associated with each investment account (GIA, ISA or SIPP) into which a transfer has taken place awarded to your GIA.

When will I get the free share?

We will award the free share within 90 days of the completion of the campaign if your transfer has completed. This is dependent on you keeping your account open, not withdrawing or transferring to below £10,000, and you have an active annual subscription.

If you make a withdrawal or transfer which causes the value of your GIA, ISA, and/or SIPP to fall before we award the free share, then it will affect whether you get a free share or how much that free share is worth. If you close your Freetrade account before we award the free share, then you won't be awarded a free share.

What if my transfer hasn't been completed within 90 days of the campaign completing, will I still get my free share?

Yes, we will review all those transfers who qualified before 31 January each month and award outstanding free shares in a monthly cycle.

Are Freetrade Treasuries included in this offer?

No, any money that you pay into your Freetrade Treasury is not included in this offer. The offer is only valid for transfers from another investment account into a Freetrade GIA, ISA or SIPP before 31 January.
