Our verdict on each

eToro

The retained provider fee page attributes the UK GBP account to eToro Money UK Ltd.

Read the full eToro review

Insignis Cash

Insignis Cash suits UK savers who want a cash management account with a low entry point and FSCS cover, and not those chasing a locked rate. The headline rate of 4.4% to 4.61% is the number that decides it, and the variable rate type decides how long it lasts.

Pros and cons

eToro

Pros

  • Access to shares, funds and crypto through one platform
  • Fractional shares for smaller purchases in higher priced companies
  • Data and analysis tools alongside views from the investor community

Cons

  • Investment values can fall, so holdings may end below their starting value
  • Copying other investors can bring risks that are hard to judge

Insignis Cash

Pros

  • The minimum deposit is £0, so there is no floor to clear before you can start.
  • The headline rate of 4.4% to 4.61% sits above the 3.3% listed at PayPal Colombia.
  • Deposits are covered by the FSCS scheme, listed as FSCS up to GBP 85,000.

Cons

  • The rate type is variable while the listed model is fixed rate, so treat 4.4% to 4.61% as a figure that can move rather than a return locked across 6 to 60.
  • Choosing a notice or fixed-term deposit ties that money up for 6 to 60 instead of leaving it on easy access terms.
  • The account is grouped as cash management, which suits holding cash but sits on a different shelf from the easy-access savings accounts most rate comparisons come from.

Who each suits

eToro

Who it suits

  • Readers identifying the provider named for eToro’s UK GBP account.

Who should look elsewhere

  • People who need savings protected from market moves
  • Investors who prefer a single product with a fixed return

Insignis Cash

Who it suits

  • UK savers who put cover first, since deposit protection is listed as FSCS up to GBP 85,000.
  • People who need easy access for one pot and a longer lock of 6 to 60 for another, from the same provider.
  • Readers who want a named UK company behind the money: Insignis Asset Management Limited, founded in 2017.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Not for the highest headline figure on the site: Plazo ES lists 24.19% and AXI Card Tarjeta y Credito 21.59%, well above the 4.4% to 4.61% here.
  • Not for savers who will settle for a lower number: PayPal Colombia lists 3.3% against 4.4% to 4.61% at Insignis Cash, so you trade some yield for the wider set of deposit terms.

Questions about each

eToro

What kinds of assets can investors reach?+

Investors can reach shares from many exchanges around the world, along with exchange traded funds and crypto assets. Fractional shares open higher priced companies to smaller purchases. Each holding can be sized around personal goals, with the data and analysis tools offering context for those choices.

Where does the company operate and who holds the accounts?+

The company serves a global community of investors across many markets. Its licences cover key markets, so the local status of an account depends on the country involved. Anyone thinking of investing should confirm which company entity holds their account before depositing money.

Insignis Cash

What is the minimum deposit, and can I start small?+

The minimum deposit is £0, so there is no floor to clear before you start. Deposits come as easy access, notice and fixed-term options, and fixed terms run 6 to 60. On minimum deposit the account ranks 1 of 370 brands on the site.

Is my money protected?+

Money is covered by the FSCS scheme, listed as FSCS up to GBP 85,000, so the protection comes with a cap you can read. The provider operates under the Financial Conduct Authority's Payment Services Regulations permission, recorded as 813442 for the UK. Hold on to the cap and the licence, since they answer different questions about the same balance.
