Mini Cash ISAs are a form of saving account in the United Kingdom. They allow people on low incomes to make savings that are tax-free. This means that any profit that the ISAs accrue is theirs to keep, and the tax man gets none of it.

Mini Cash ISAs operate in a similar fashion to regular savings account plus the benefits mentioned above, so setting one up is a relatively simple process and most banks in the high street offer mini cash ISAs for anyone over 18.

Here is an example of how mini cash ISAs can work for the average person. If £1,000 was invested in 1986, over the space of 20 years this figure would of rose to £7,817, which is a healthy amount I’m sure anyone would agree. Sure if the money was invested in stocks then that amount could be more, but stocks carry a huge risk where as ISAs have none.

Since mini cash ISAs work in the same way as a regular savings account, you can put money in to them at any time. You could pay in a regular monthly fee or simply put any money spare in the account whenever you feel you have enough money to last you the month – this is my preferred method when using my ISA.

Finding the best ISA for you can be a hardy task and it may even be worth talking to a financial advisor who deals with investment options. If you would like to find one yourself then it’s best to look around at the different banks offering them and to look at the rates as it is these that determine how much your savings will make over a period of time. Some banks also offer bonus rates for the first few months of year so this is another thing to look out for.
