Opening an account
How you’ll open an account.
GoInvest will help you compare the banks and brokers offering the Investment Account and pick the one that suits you. The provider you choose will open the account: they confirm your identity, your tax residency, and where your money comes from, and they hold your investments.
What we do and don’t ask for
We never ask for your PPSN, passport, bank details, or investment history. Those belong with the bank or broker that will hold your money, and they are the only ones who can approve and open your account. We only pass your details to a provider with your consent.
If a provider pays us when you open an account through GoInvest, we tell you before you click through. That payment never changes the price you pay, and it never affects where a provider appears in our comparison.
What’s coming
As banks and brokers publish their Investment Account fees, fund ranges, and apps, we will add them to the comparison with the date we checked each one. Sign up for updates and we will email you when the first providers are ready.
The Finance Bill lets you move your account between providers, and where both support it your investments move without being sold. We will also compare what it costs to switch, so you can change provider later without losing out.
