This promotion runs from 00:00 on 1 October 2026 to 23.59pm 14 October 2026, UK time.

1. What are the promotion’s key details? 

  • Get a cash reward worth between £25 - £300 when you:

- Are a new IG client. 

- Use the code CASHBACK300 to open an eligible account between 1 October 2026 and 14 October 2026.

- Invest £300 or more in this eligible account by 31 October 2026.

- Hold an average investment value of at least £300 in the eligible account from the date you meet the minimum investment to 31 January 2027.

  • The amount you receive will depend on the value of your investments, as shown below.
  • We’ll add any due reward to your standard GIA (UK General Investment Share Dealing Account) by the end of February 2027.  
  • These terms include the full eligibility criteria for this promotion. By taking part in this promotion, you are agreeing to these terms and conditions.  
 
Your customer agreement and our usual costs and charges apply to your IG account(s). These charges may also apply to any reward you receive, such as a foreign exchange fee.

2. How do I become eligible for this promotion? 

  • Be a UK resident and aged 18 or over. 
  • Be a new IG client and not have held any account with IG before applying for your eligible account under this promotion. 
  • Between 1 October 2026 and 14 October 2026, open one of the IG share dealing accounts listed below using promotional code CASHBACK300:

- Smart or standard GIA (UK General Investment Account)  

- Smart or standard ISA (UK Individual Savings Account) 

  • Make investments with a value of at least £300 in this eligible account by 31 October 2026.  You can make more than one investment during this period to meet the minimum investment amount..
Value is the value of investments in your eligible account, less the value of any investments sold or transferred out. The following will not count towards this promotion:
Transfers from a third party to IG.
IPO-related investments or trades, including shares bought through IG's IPO allocation service or during an IPO subscription, grey market or conditional dealing period.
Cash, including cash deposits.
Unsettled trades or pending orders.
  • Hold an average investment value of at least £300 in the eligible account from the date you meet the minimum investment to 31 January 2027. 
  • If you maintain a higher average investment value you may qualify for a higher reward, as shown in the table below.

 

During the hold period mentioned above, we’ll work out your average investment value each month as follows:
Each day at 22:00 UK time, we’ll check the current market price in GBP of each investment in your eligible account. We’ll multiply that figure by the number of shares you hold, then add these amounts together.
At the end of each month, we’ll add together your daily investment values and divide that total by the number of days in that month.
This gives us your average investment value for that month.
  • You must have an open IG GIA (UK General Investments Share Dealing Account) when the reward is due to be paid. 
  • You won’t lose your reward if your account falls below £300 because of market movements. This only applies if you invested at least £300 during the relevant period and did not sell or withdraw investments. 
  • If you open more than one eligible account, we’ll only apply this promotion to the one that reaches £300 first. 

3. How and when will I receive the promotion reward? 

  • If you meet the promotion requirements, we’ll give you a cash reward of between £25 and £300, depending on your average investment during the relevant period, as shown the table below:

  • You will receive the reward for the highest tier you qualify for. You will not receive rewards from any lower tiers. For example, if you qualify for Tier 3, you will receive the Tier 3 reward only and not the rewards for Tiers 1 - 2 as well. 
  • We’ll add any due reward to your standard GIA (UK General Investment Share Dealing Account) by 28 February 2027. We won’t add it to any other account, even if you made your investment in a different account or opened a Smart Portfolio account. 
  • You can only receive one reward, even if you open more than one account or meet the reward requirements in more than one account. 
  • You will not receive a reward if your average investment during the relevant period is less than £300.  
  • The maximum reward available under this promotion is £300. 

4. What about tax? 

  • If the law requires us to deduct or withhold tax, we may do this before crediting the reward to your account.  
  • You are responsible for any tax that may be due on your reward and for submitting any required tax form by the deadline. We are not responsible if you miss out on the reward because you do not submit it in time. 
  • We do not provide tax advice. If you are unsure about your tax position, you should speak to an independent tax adviser. 

5. When can’t I take part in the promotion? 

  • We'll do what we reasonably can to open your account, but you won't be able to take part in the promotion if:  

- You are taking part in another IG group promotion or incentive, unless those terms allow it. If you are taking part in more than one IG group promotion, you will only be eligible for the promotion you took part in first. 

- You joined IG or opened an account indirectly through a third party, introducer or similar arrangement.  

- You work for IG group, one of its affiliates or subsidiaries, or a direct competitor of IG. 

- Legal, regulatory or other restrictions apply to your account, for example because of where you live.  

- You or your investments do not meet our usual account checks or suitability requirements.  

  • Where possible, we'll let you know during the application process if any of these restrictions mean you can’t take part in the promotion.
