Quick LinksQuick links are where we have an arrangement with a provider so you can move directly from our site to theirs to view more information and apply for a product. We also use quick links where we have an arrangement with a preferred broker to move you directly to their site. Depending on the arrangement we may receive a modest commission either when you press a 'Go to Provider' or 'Speak to a Broker' button, when you call an advertised number or when you complete an application.
Our instant access cash ISAs comparison chart is an easy way of comparing all the instant access cash ISAs available on the market, making it quick and simple to see which one could be right for you. The chart lists all the products in an easy-to-read format, starting with those that can be applied for directly by clicking on the ‘Go To Provider’s Site’ button. Under these, the accounts are arranged in descending order to show the highest rates first and the lowest rates at the bottom. The chart can be easily refined according to your specific criteria, for example by changing the investment amount, investment type and account management and opening options, as well as by letting you see the top-paying accounts first, with or without a link.
When choosing the right instant access cash ISA there are many factors that need to be taken into consideration. Along with considering the interest rate being offered, it’s also important to look at factors such as the minimum investment needed and how the account can be opened and managed, as these will have an impact on the suitability of the account. Make sure to check the withdrawal restrictions, too – while many instant access ISAs allow unlimited access to funds, some have stricter rules in place, so always check the finer details of any account before making your decision.
