Key product information
How it works
With the Loyalty Cash ISA, we reward you for your loyalty as long as you pay at least £1 into your ISA each year. This exclusive variable loyalty rate applies for 12 months from the date of each payment.
If you make further payments into your ISA, your loyalty rate period will begin again from the date of each payment. Upon the expiry of your Loyalty rate period, you will earn a standard rate of interest until you make a further payment.
You can start your ISA savings with any amount from £1. The overall annual ISA subscription limit is subject to change every year (currently £20,000). Within this, the Lifetime ISA has its own annual payment limit (currently £4,000).
Our ISA isn’t a flexible cash ISA, so any money withdrawn will not change how much of your annual ISA subscription limit you have already used. If you have fully subscribed, you will need to wait until the next tax year to subscribe more funds.

Interest is variable, is calculated daily and credited to the account monthly.
A Loyalty rate applies for 12 months from the date of each payment into your ISA. If you make further payments into your ISA, your Loyalty rate period will begin again from the date of each payment. Upon the expiry of your Loyalty rate period, you will earn a standard rate of interest until you make a further payment.
Can HSBC change the interest rate?
Yes. The account pays a variable rate of interest, which means it can change over time. The HSBC Cash ISA Terms and Conditions explain when and how we do this. For example, we might review the interest rate if the Bank of England base rate changes.
