You can transfer your full cash ISA balance (i.e., your contributions from previous years' ISA allowances) into your Chip Cash ISA without it affecting your current year's allowance.
Total flexibility
The Chip Cash ISA is a flexible ISA, which means you can withdraw and deposit (almost instantly) as many times as you like, without it affecting your annual £20,000 ISA allowance. Giving you the freedom to take your money out and put it back in when it suits you, with no restrictions or penalties.
With other providers, withdrawn funds can lose that tax-free status and will be taken off your ISA allowance. To add to that, you may be limited to a few withdrawals a year, or face a reduction to your interest rate for accessing your money. But not with Chip.
Hands-free saving

FAQs
Everything you've ever wanted to know about the Chip Cash ISA. Find all our up to date terms here.
The Bank of England Bank Rate, often simply referred to as the base rate, is the interest rate at which the Bank of England lends money to commercial banks. It serves as a benchmark for all other interest rates in the economy, influencing the rates that banks offer on their lending and savings products.
The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC), a group within the Bank of England, sets the base rate based on economic conditions, with the primary aim of managing inflation. MPC decisions are widely reported on and their meeting notes are a matter of public record.
A Cash ISA (Individual Savings Account) is a type of savings account available to residents in the United Kingdom. It allows individuals to earn interest without paying income tax on the interest earned. Cash ISAs are considered a tax-efficient way to save because any interest earned within the ISA is tax-free.
The Chip Cash ISA has a tracker rate. This means the gross interest rate is variable and tracks at 0.26% below the current Bank of England base rate.
Basically, when the base rate moves up or down, your savings rate will move on the same day. This ensures it automatically stays competitive and in line with the wider market. Read more here
The annual ISA allowance is £20,000 across the four different types of ISAs available, this includes the Cash ISA.
For example, if you had £10,000 in your Chip Stocks and Shares ISA and £10,000 in a Chip Cash ISA, you would have reached your annual ISA limit. Your annual ISA allowance resets at midnight 5 April 2024.
After this point we are in a new tax year and your new £20,000 ISA allowance comes into effect.
A flexible ISA allows individuals to withdraw money from their ISA accounts and then replace it within the same tax year without affecting their annual ISA allowance. Also, if you withdraw your money in our Cash ISA, you won’t receive any restrictions or penalties.
Interest is paid on the fourth working day of each month.
