Elise Ash, Marketing Director at IG, said: “For anyone new to investing or thinking about switching platforms, this offer provides a rewarding nudge in the right direction, giving them a valuable way to build their portfolio.” She added that investors can choose an ISA, SIPP, or GIA, and can also benefit from IG’s commission-free investing and available asset range.

To qualify, customers must open a new account, place a first trade of at least £50, and maintain an active portfolio valued at a minimum of £50 from January to March 2026. Cashback will be calculated as 5% of the customer’s daily average invested value during the promotional period, with a maximum payout of £100. Payments are scheduled to be credited by 30 April 2026.

IG Highlights Savings Shift, eToro Launches ISA

IG has highlighted concerns over Cash ISAs through its “Save Our Stock Market” campaign, arguing that tax-advantaged cash accounts reduce investment in domestic equities .

The launch coincides with eToro, in partnership with Moneyfarm, introducing a Cash ISA for UK customers. The account offers a 4.67% AER in the first year, combining a 3.87% variable base rate with a fixed 0.8% boost on the first deposit or transfer.

Minimum deposit and transfer requirements are £500 and £15,000. The ISA works alongside eToro’s other account types and is available until the end of December 2025.
