Quick things to know

  • Chip charges a platform fee for managing your investments

  • ChipX has no platform fee

  • Fund providers also charge a management fee - this is regardless of the plan you're on

  • Fees are charged monthly but are shown annually

What is a platform fee?

The platform fee is what you pay to Chip for providing and managing your investment account.

  • It’s charged as a percentage of your balance (including gains)

  • Collected monthly, shown as an annual percentage

  • You’ll see this fee in your contract notes and quarterly statements

Platform fees by plan

Plan

Platform Fee

Chip

0.25% annually, charged monthly (min £1/month per account)

ChipX

0% platform fee

Note: The £1 monthly minimum applies per investment account. So if you have both an ISA and a GIA, each may be charged separately.

What other fees are there?

Each investment fund also charges an annual management fee. This is set by the fund provider, not by Chip.

  • These fees vary by fund

  • You can find them in each fund’s Key Investor Information Document (KIID)

  • These fees are taken directly from your investment value

Is there a cost to join ChipX?

Yes. ChipX costs:

  • £5.99 every 28 days (monthly)

  • Or £65.05 annually (which works out as £4.99 every 28 days)

Will fees ever change?

We may change our fees, but we’ll always give you at least 2 months’ notice if we do.
