FAQs
A Junior Cash ISA is a tax-free savings account for children under the age of 18 who are resident in the UK. Parents or legal guardians can save up to £9,000 per tax year, and the money belongs to the child. Funds are locked until they turn 18, helping build a financial foundation for their future.
Yes, CMC Invest is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and we have regulatory permissions to hold and control client money.

Yes, you can. A child can only have one Junior Cash ISA (JISA). If you want to open a new account, you’ll need to transfer your existing JISA to CMC Invest.
All you have to do is download the CMC Invest app, open a JISA, fill out our transfer form in the app, and we’ll work with your current provider to transfer your savings on your behalf. Learn more about our transfer process.
However, if you’re transferring a fixed-rate ISA before maturity (when the fixed-rate ISA ends), you may incur an early closure charge or penalty from your current provider.
Yes, you can. You can transfer a fixed-rate ISA before or after the maturity date (when the fixed-rate ISA ends). However, it's essential to be aware that transferring a fixed-rate ISA before its maturity may incur an early closure charge from your current provider.
If you're a parent or legal guardian, you can open and manage the account for a child under 18 years old who lives in the UK.
A Junior Cash ISA can be opened from as little as £1, and has a £9,000 annual contribution limit across all Junior ISAs – including a Junior Stocks & Shares ISA.
Transferring existing Junior Cash ISAs to CMC Invest can be initiated and managed all within the CMC Invest app. Learn more about our transfer process.
With CMC Invest, the minimum amount you can deposit is £1. You can use your debit card to add funds, but you can’t deposit more than £9,000 across multiple Junior ISAs in the same tax year.
No, you can't. Money can't be withdrawn from a Junior ISA until the child is 18. And any contributions to the Junior ISA can't be refunded and belong to the child.
You can cancel the account free of charge within 14 days of opening. For special circumstance closures, view our terms and conditions.
Currently, we only offer a junior ISA, a flexible Cash ISA and a flexible Stocks & Shares ISA. If you’re interested in us adding other types of ISAs, please let us know using the ‘Send us your feedback’ banner on the home screen in the app.
No, there are no fees to hold a Junior Cash ISA.
Yes, CMC Markets Investments Limited (registration number 948126) is fully authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) in the UK. Retail client money is held in segregated client bank accounts, and money held on behalf of clients is distributed across a range of major banks, which are regularly assessed against our risk criteria.
Yes, your eligible deposits with CMC Markets are protected up to a total of £120,000 by the Financial Services Compensations Scheme (FSCS), the UK's deposit guarantee scheme. If CMC Invest ever went into liquidation, retail clients would have their share of segregated money returned, minus the administrator's costs in handling and distributing these funds. Any shortfall of funds up to £120,000 may be compensated under the FSCS.
Under the FCA's client money rules, we're required to segregate client money from our own funds (unless you agree with us otherwise). The money held in segregated bank accounts does not belong to us and will be held in a way that enables it to be identified as client money. Learn more about client money regulations.
In the UK, you won’t need to pay capital gain tax (CGT) on any profits you make from selling investments, and dividend tax on income you receive from companies in your stocks & shares ISA and self-invested personal pension (SIPP). Any profits and dividend income to your general investment account is taxable and will be shown in your ‘Consolidated Tax Certificate’, provided to you following the end of each tax year. Tax treatment depends on your individual circumstances and may be subject to change in the future.
