What happens to my ISA if I downgrade from Freetrade Plus?

If you hold a Stocks & Shares ISA with Freetrade Plus, downgrading means your ISA wrapper will close. Your investments won't be sold, but they'll move to a General Investment Account (GIA), losing the tax-free ISA status. Future gains and dividends will then be subject to tax.

Are there fees for cancelling Freetrade Plus?

There's no cancellation fee for downgrading from Freetrade Plus to Standard. You'll simply lose Plus features at the end of your current billing period. The Standard (free) tier still allows commission-free investing.

How long does it take to downgrade or close a Freetrade account?

Downgrading from Plus takes effect at the end of your billing cycle, typically within 1–30 days. If you want to fully close your account, you'll need to sell all investments and withdraw funds first, which can take 3–10 business days.

Retention Tips

Before downgrading from Freetrade Plus, consider what you'd be giving up: a Stocks & Shares ISA (which shelters your gains from tax), access to 6,000+ global stocks, and priority customer support. If you hold investments in an ISA, downgrading moves them to a GIA and you'll lose your tax-free status. It might be worth keeping Plus for the ISA benefit alone. Would you like to reconsider before proceeding?
