Moneybox

Where did the idea behind Moneybox come from?

We launched Moneybox in 2015 with a small team and a big idea: to help people build wealth with confidence so they can enjoy life today and tomorrow. At the time, wealth management was an outdated, expensive industry designed for the few, leaving most people without the support they needed to grow their money.

We thought that advances in technology would significantly reduce the cost to serve customers, while regulatory changes like the introduction of the Lifetime ISA and pension auto-enrolment meant that more people than ever had money to invest. We saw an opportunity to redefine wealth management—creating an intuitive, accessible platform that could meet people where they are, helping them build financial confidence and long-term security.

From our initial ‘round ups’ investing feature, Moneybox has grown into a platform serving over a million customers across saving, investing, home-buying, and retirement. We’re leveraging data and technology to build what we believe will be the UK’s category-defining wealth management platform.

Where do you see the company in 5 years?

Moneybox is on a strong growth trajectory, and in five years, we see it cementing its position as the UK’s leading wealth-building platform—helping millions of people build wealth with confidence.

We’re focused on three key areas: expanding our customer base, deepening customer relationships through greater personalisation, and continuing to mature our product offering. Our vertically integrated tech platform, deep regulatory footprint, and talented team enable us to iterate quickly, delivering an ever-improving service that supports people at every stage of their financial journey.

We’ll continue enhancing our Saving, Investing, Home-buying, and Pension products, ensuring customers have the tools, knowledge, and confidence to make financial decisions that align with their life goals. We’re also exploring ways to offer more tailored financial guidance, working closely with the FCA on initiatives like the Advice Guidance Boundary Review.

Our ambition is to redefine how people engage with their finances—making wealth-building a steady, achievable practice for the many, not just the few. The best is yet to come.

What are the biggest opportunities for Moneybox’s business?

The market opportunity for Moneybox is significant. There are over 10 million people in the UK who are overly reliant on cash savings and missing out on the opportunity to grow their money through investing. Moneybox is uniquely positioned to help these people make the shift—providing accessible, intuitive products that support wealth-building at every stage of life.

We see three key opportunities for growth:

1. Expanding our reach – By continuing to acquire new customers at scale, particularly through competitive products like our Cash ISA and Lifetime ISA, we can introduce more people to our platform and help them build and embed positive saving and investing behaviours that will enable them to achieve all their financial goals throughout life.
2. Deepening customer relationships – Through greater personalisation and a seamless, intuitive experience, we can support customers as their financial needs evolve—whether they’re saving for their first home, investing for the future, or planning for a comfortable retirement.
3. Shaping the future of financial guidance – With the Advice Guidance Boundary Review underway, we’re actively exploring ways to provide more tailored financial support, ensuring that more people can make informed financial decisions with greater confidence.

Moneybox has already demonstrated strong, consistent growth across our product set, and we believe we have a clear path to becoming the UK’s category-defining wealth platform. By continuing to innovate, personalise, and support our customers in meaningful ways, we’re excited about the opportunities ahead.
