How to get started

If you are an existing Scottish Friendly customer, log into your My Plans account to get started. Just look for the transfer option under your existing policy.

Otherwise select from our two options below.

Ready-made

Easy investment option. Our carefully selected single fund options include:

  • A fund with a guarantee

  • A climate focused fund choice

Do-it-yourself

You can pick from a range of funds that best suit your child's needs:

  • Choice of funds with varying risk levels

  • Select just one, a mixture of all, or somewhere in between

Please note that Scottish Friendly doesn’t offer a Cash Junior ISA. Keep in mind that stock market investments can go down as well as up, so your child could get back less than you've paid in. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and tax rules could change in the future.

If within the first 5 years of setting up the policy the registered contact transfers the policy to another Junior ISA manager, there will be a charge of £50 deducted from the withdrawal value. Only a mum, dad or guardian can take out a Junior ISA for the child. However, once set up anyone can contribute. The funds in a Junior ISA belong to the child and can only be accessed by them when they turn 18.
