Terms and conditions

1. These Terms and Conditions apply to the July–September 2026 TRANSFER250 Transfer Promotion (“Promotion”). By participating in the Promotion, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions as well as the Customer Agreement for your IG account. If any provision of these Terms and Conditions conflicts with any provision of the Customer Agreement, the Customer Agreement shall prevail.

2. The Promotion is organised by IG Trading and Investments Limited, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (register number 944492) and whose registered address is Cannon Bridge House, 25 Dowgate Hill, London EC4R 2YA (“we”, “us”, “IG” or “our”).

3. The Promotion will start at 00:00 UK time on 24 July 2026 and end at 23:59 UK time on 30 September 2026 (“Promotional Period”). We may extend or shorten the Promotional Period at our sole discretion.

4. Definitions

In these Terms and Conditions:

"GIA" means a UK General Investment Share Dealing account with IG;

"ISA" means a UK Individual Savings Account with IG;

"Holding Period" means the period from the end of the Promotional Period to 23:59 on 31 March 2027;

"IPO-related Instruments" means any security that IG designates as an IPO market, including shares acquired through IG’s IPO allocation service during the IPO subscription, grey market or conditional dealing period;

"Qualifying Transfer" means a completed transfer of investments (in specie) to your Share Dealing Account from another provider, with a value of at least £10,000. For the avoidance of doubt, cash deposits and cash transfers into your Share Dealing Account are not Qualifying Transfers for the purposes of this Promotion — only transfers of stock or investments count;

"Share Dealing Account" means a GIA or ISA. SIPPs are excluded from this Promotion and are not a Share Dealing Account for the purposes of these Terms and Conditions.

5. You must satisfy all of the following conditions to participate in the Promotion:

A. Be a UK resident and aged 18 years or older;

B. Apply to open a Share Dealing Account (GIA or ISA only) during the Promotional Period using the promotional code “TRANSFER250”, or have been contacted directly by IG to participate in the Promotion;

C. Submit a validly completed IG transfer form by 23:59 on 30 September 2026 to initiate a Qualifying Transfer on that Share Dealing Account;

D. Complete a Qualifying Transfer by 30 November 2026;

E. Maintain at least one open position until 23:59 on 31 March 2027.

6. Positions held in IPO-related Instruments are excluded from this Promotion and will not count towards the requirement to maintain an open position under clause 9E above.

7. We shall not be responsible for any delay by your existing provider in processing the transfer nor for any delay caused by circumstances outside of our control.

8. If you are depositing a UK share certificate, instead of completing the online transfer form, you’ll need to complete a ‘Certificate Transfer Form’ and a ‘Crest Transfer Form’. You can find these forms in the ‘Transfers’ section of our online service. You’ll need to send us your completed forms along with your share certificate(s) by 23:59 on 30 September 2026.

9. Although we’ll make every effort to transfer all your stocks to our service, we regret that there may be some instances where this is not possible. We’ll let you know if this is the case.

10. If you are eligible for the Promotion and satisfy the Promotion’s conditions, we will credit the applicable cashback award to your GIA account by 30 April 2027, calculated in accordance with clause 15.

11. Cashback calculation:

A. The cashback award is calculated as 1% of your Net Qualifying Transfer Value, being the total value of your Qualifying Transfer(s) initiated during the Promotional Period, reduced by any amounts withdrawn from your Share Dealing Account during the Holding Period, subject to the maximum cashback award set out in C below.

B. Any transfers made outside of the Promotional Period, and any cash deposits or cash transfers to your Share Dealing Account, will not increase the amount on which cashback is calculated.

C. The maximum amount of cashback per client is £250. This maximum is reached once your Net Qualifying Transfer Value is £25,000 or more.

D. If withdrawals during the Holding Period reduce your Net Qualifying Transfer Value below £10,000, you will receive no cashback award.

Example Scenario 1: You transfer £10,000 of investments before 30 September 2026 and make no withdrawals during the Holding Period. Your Net Qualifying Transfer Value is £10,000, and you will receive £100 cashback.

Example Scenario 2: You transfer £15,000 of investments before 30 September 2026 and then withdraw £8,000 during the Holding Period. Your Net Qualifying Transfer Value is £7,000, which is below the £10,000 minimum, and you will receive no cashback award.

Example Scenario 3: You transfer £25,000 or more of investments before 30 September 2026 and make no withdrawals during the Holding Period. You will receive £250 cashback, the maximum cashback award available.

Example Scenario 4: You transfer £20,000 of investments before 30 September 2026 and then withdraw £5,000 during the Holding Period. Your Net Qualifying Transfer Value is £15,000, and you will receive £150 cashback.

12. In accordance with the Customer Agreement for your Share Dealing Account, you may be liable for fees and charges in respect of the cashback award you receive as part of this Promotion. You can find our share dealing fees here: https://www.ig.com/uk/investments/share-dealing/costs-fees.

13. You may not take advantage of concurrent promotions, incentives or promotional codes offered by IG or IG group, unless the terms and conditions for the relevant promotion specify otherwise. If you participate in multiple promotions simultaneously, you shall be deemed eligible only for the one you began to participate in first.

14. You must be a direct client of IG. If you have any third-party introduction or introduction-type arrangement with IG or any IG group company, any accounts opened thereunder will not qualify for the Promotion.

15. All accounts are subject to our standard account opening criteria and accounts are available subject to certain jurisdictional restrictions, and as such not all applicants will be successful in their application for an account.

16. If any restrictions apply to your account, your account may not be eligible for the Promotion until the restrictions have been lifted. Any restrictions that apply to a new account will be detailed in the email to the account holder upon account activation.

17. The Promotion is not open to employees of IG or IG group or employees of any other company engaged in direct competition with IG or any IG group company.

18. The Promotion and any obligations of IG pursuant to it will be revoked or withdrawn from participants who abuse the spirit or intention of it. We reserve the right to cancel or withdraw the Promotion at any time for any reason, including, but not limited to, in case of any suspected abuse of the Promotion. Further, where any of these Terms and Conditions are breached, if we believe that any of the terms of your Customer Agreement with us have been breached in any way, you no longer have an account with IG or there is any reason to suspect a participant has acted fraudulently or obtained an unfair or unintended advantage pursuant to this Promotion, we reserve the right to stop, withhold or cancel payment of the cashback award or to prevent any attempted withdrawal of the cashback award from your account.

19. We are the sole arbiter of the Promotion, these Terms and Conditions and any other issues arising under this Promotion. Exceptions to these Terms and Conditions are at the sole discretion of IG’s management, and our decision is final. We reserve the right to alter, amend or terminate the Promotion or any aspect of it (including the Terms and Conditions) at any time and without prior notice.

20. We will not be held liable for any losses incurred by you as a result of your trading or in relation to this Promotion except where such loss is a result of our negligence or wilful misconduct. All trading involves risk. The value of shares, ETFs and ETCs can fall as well as rise, which could mean getting back less than you originally put in. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Please ensure you fully understand the risks and take care to manage your exposure.

21. We will not be held liable for your inability to satisfy the eligibility requirements of the Promotion or ability to trade as the result of any technical malfunction of the internet, IG’s trading platform, or your own computing system. You accept all risks associated with trading over the internet, mobile applications, and downloadable software.

22. Any dispute or situation not covered by these Terms and Conditions will be resolved by IG’s management in a manner it deems to be fairest to all concerned and that decision will be final and binding on all parties.

23. If at any time all or any part of any provision of these Terms and Conditions are or become illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, such provision(s) will not affect or impair the legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of the remainder of that provision or all other provisions of these Terms and Conditions or the legality, validity or enforceability under the law of any other jurisdiction of that provision or all other provisions of these Terms and Conditions.

24. If any tax is payable on the cashback award you receive under this Promotion, this tax will be your liability and will not be incurred by us. If the law requires us to withhold this tax and settle with the relevant tax authority on your behalf, then we shall credit the cashback award to your account net of this tax.

25. For more information on how IG may use your data, see our Privacy Notice, Access Policy and privacy website at www.ig.com/uk/privacy.
