How we calculate your Qualifying Investment Balance:
- Your ‘Investment Balance’ is the total value you hold in any investment funds or as uninvested cash in your Chip Stocks & Shares ISA and/or General Investment Account (GIA) and includes investment growth, losses or dividends.
- We’re using ‘Qualifying Investment Balance’ for this promotion, to ensure that market performance does not affect your eligibility during the promotion period.
- To calculate your Qualifying Investment Balance we will look at your;
- “Opening Investment Balance” on 23:59 on 23 June 2026 and;
- “Net Deposits” between 00:00 24 June 2026 and 23:59 24 July 2026.
- Your ‘Opening Investment Balance’ is your ‘Investment Balance’ as of 23:59 on 23 June 2026
- This will include any interest payments / growth / losses/ dividends that have been paid or accrued prior to 23:59 on 23 June 2026
- This will include any interest payments / growth / losses/ dividends that have been paid or accrued prior to 23:59 on 23 June 2026
- “Net Deposits” are the cash amount you deposit, minus any withdrawals, between 00:00 24 June 2026 and 23:59 on 24 July 2026 (i.e. during the promotion period).
- These will not include any interest payments / growth / losses / dividends.
- Pending deposits do not count towards your net deposits. Only deposits that have settled into your investment account(s) will be taken into consideration when determining your net deposits.
- Note if you choose to sell down your investments this will update your Qualifying Investment Balance using the same calculation we use for your Annual Valuation Statement. We look at the original price you paid for your investment and compare this to how your investment's unit price has changed to ensure that original capital is accounted for proportionately towards the “Net Deposits” in your entries.
How and when you’ll be rewarded
- If you meet the eligibility criteria and complete the qualifying actions, we'll automatically apply your +0.25% AER rate boost on 27 July 2026.
- Your rate boost is only paid on up to £20,000 of balance in your Smart Cash ISA. Any balance over that amount will earn a standard rate of 3.75% AER (variable tracker).
- For example, if you have £50,000 in your Smart Cash ISA, only £20,000 will earn the boosted rate, and the remaining £30,000 will earn the Smart Cash ISA standard variable tracker rate.
- Your rate boost will last for 365 calendar days (12 months) from 27 July 2026. After this, your rate will revert to the Chip Smart Cash ISA standard variable rate – currently 3.75% AER (variable).
