Value for money services
For you, your family, your business... even your friends.
We’ve a range of accounts from a Cash ISA for your savings, to a SIPP Dealing account for your pension investing.
Choose the account you want, then apply online and you could be up and running in just 10 minutes. For some accounts you’ll need to complete an application form instead. And if you’d like some help in deciding which account might suit you best, use our handy account selector.
Please bear in mind that:- The value of investments can fall as well as rise and any income from them is not guaranteed. You should be prepared to lose your investment. Past performance is not a guide to future performance.
- Selftrade provides you with a range of tools and information to help you make informed investment decisions but does not provide investment advice. If you are in any doubt as to the risk or suitability of an investment or product you should seek advice from an independent financial adviser.
- You should always read the Prospectus and understand the nature of the investment you plan to make. Be aware that some may use derivatives which carry a high risk to your capital. We will ask you to confirm that you have received the Simplified Prospectus or Key Investor Information Document, as appropriate, and will be unable to accept your purchase instruction without this confirmation.
Important news: Selftrade has become a bank with deposit taking permissions granted by the Financial Services Authority. This marks an extension of Selftrade’s execution-only stock broking service, which remains at the heart of the Selftrade business.
Selftrade’s Terms and Conditions have therefore changed.

Please remember: not all accounts will be suitable for all investors; if in doubt you should consult an independent financial adviser. The benefits of tax-efficient accounts will vary according to your individual circumstances; the level of tax allowances and the way in which they are applied may change.
The value of investments may fall as well as rise and you may get back less than you originally invested. Limited liability instruments mean that you cannot lose more than you have invested. The risks associated with different instruments will vary; you should choose investments appropriate to your needs and consider your overall mix of different investment types.
