Barclays Cash ISA

Before you commit an allowance

What to check first

  • The 4.50% headline is for Premier customers. If you are not eligible for Premier Banking, the best fixed rate available to you is 4.30%.
  • The Reward ISA's 2.75% only applies in months with no withdrawals. Take money out and that month pays 0.85% — read it as a no-touch account rather than an easy-access one.
  • The Instant Cash ISA pays 1.00%, well below the rest of this range and below several easy-access ISAs elsewhere on the site.
  • Barclays is running an ISA transfer incentive of £50 to £600 depending on the balance moved and the current account held — £50 at £10,000 with a Barclays current account, up to £600 at £100,000 with a Premier Current Account. The transfer-in request had a 25 November deadline when this page was checked, so confirm the offer is still open.
  • Barclays rate pages render their tables in JavaScript. If you are checking these figures yourself, open the page in a browser rather than trusting a cached or scraped copy.

A Cash ISA allowance is annual and does not roll over. Read how the providers compare before committing it to one bank.
