- Investment platform is offering John Lewis gift cards to new customers

Hargreaves Lansdown is offering new customers up to £200 in John Lewis vouchers when they open or transfer a stocks and shares Isa or a self-invested personal pension.
The festive period will be well underway by the time the offer closes on 10 December, with turkeys and Quality Street lining the supermarket shelves.
Deals like this can sometimes be turkeys themselves, with customers only qualifying for a paltry sum – or nothing at all – unless they have a large amount to invest.
When it comes to the Hargreaves Lansdown offer*, you must add at least £10,000 to an account to be eligible. This is about the usual minimum for offers of this type. When opening or transferring an Isa you’ll get a £150 John Lewis voucher and for a Sipp you’ll get a £200 voucher.
Hargreaves Lansdown has potentially missed a trick by not emailing vouchers to customers in time for use on Christmas shopping, or to alleviate the January blues – you’ll receive your voucher by 14 March 2026.
Hard cash is also preferable to a gift card you can only use at one shop. That being said, if you’ve been thinking about switching investment platform and Hargreaves Lansdown fits the bill, this is a decent incentive.

John Lewis vouchers: Hargreaves Lansdown has forgone cashback for this incentive
How does the Hargreaves Lansdown deal stack up?
A few investment platforms are currently running incentives to switch including:
| Provider | Incentive | Account type | Minimum deposit/transfer | Deadline |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fidelity | £200-£2000 cashback | Sipp | £35,000 | 10 November 2025 |
| Hargreaves Lansdown* | £150 (Isa) or £200 (Sipp) John Lewis voucher | Isa/Sipp | £10,000 | 10 December 2025 |
| Interactive Investor | £200 | Sipp | £15,000 | 30 September 2025 |
Hargreaves Lansdown’s deal compares favourably with others currently available, because there’s an incentive on both Isas* and Sipps* and there’s a lower minimum deposit or transfer. Investors also have more time to act than with other deals.
Make sure you read all the terms and conditions of the deal before going ahead – you must open an account or start a transfer by 10 December 2025.
If transferring, it must complete by 31 January 2026, however you can contact the Hargreaves Lansdown customer service team to extend this if you need more time to transfer.
It’s important you don’t choose a provider based on deals and incentives alone. You should check the platform is right for you – read our guides to the best stocks and shares Isas and the best Sipps to help you decide.
In the case of pensions, make sure you won’t lose any valuable benefits when transferring out of an existing one.
