Pension Transfer

Transferring your old pensions to Wealthify couldn’t be simpler and comes with a whole host of benefits:

  • Low management fee of 0.6% per year, which includes the expert management of your Plan, taking the hassle out of saving for retirement.

  • When your pot reaches £100,000, get a reduced fee of 0.3% on any balance above that, meaning you get to keep more of your money.

  • Manage your Pension online or on our award-winning app.

The value of your Pension could go down as well as up. Tax treatments depend on your individual circumstances (and could change in the future). Minimum initial deposit of £5,000 required.

Can I combine my pensions?

You may have several pensions with different providers, which can happen when you change jobs and leave an old workplace behind. Combining these old pensions together with one provider is known as pension consolidation and can make it easier to keep track of your pension pot.

Thankfully, combining your pensions with Wealthify is easy! Just let us know which pensions you want to combine, and we'll bring them all together into your Wealthify Pension.

With investing, your capital is at risk. The tax treatment of your investment will depend on your individual circumstances and may change in the future.

New to Wealthify Pensions?

If you're just setting out on your journey to get better control over your pensions, you don’t have to commit all of your hard-earned pensions at once. If you’d prefer, you can elect to transfer just part of your pension and transfer the rest at a later date if that feels right for you.

Simply start your transfer and select how much of your existing pension(s) you’d like to transfer using our Plan Builder.

Pension Transfer FAQS

Transferring your old pensions is easier than you might think – all we need to know is who your old providers are, reference numbers , an estimated value, and your permission to get in touch with your old providers regarding your pensions. You can usually find this information on your latest pension statement. We’ll do the rest and consolidate them into your Wealthify Pension.

If you’re an existing customer, simply head to your Dashboard and use the ‘transfer in’ button on your home screen.

You can transfer most types of pensions to Wealthify, apart from:

  • Pensions with safeguarded benefits, such as those with a defined benefit (DB), guaranteed annuity rate (GAR), guaranteed minimum pension (GMP), or final salary promise;

  • Pensions with protected benefits such as Protected Tax-Free Cash, or Protected Pension Age*;

  • Pensions you’re already taking an income from;

  • Overseas pensions, including Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Schemes (QROPS);

  • Crystallised plans.

Please note we can only accept defined contribution plans that have no safeguarded benefits or guarantees.

*Exception: if your pension has a protected Normal Minimum Pension Age (NMPA) of 55 or 56, we can accept the transfer.

No, unfortunately, we’re not able to accept pensions that are already in payment or if you’ve already taken income from.
