There are two ways you can pay into your Tembo Cash ISA:

1. Direct debits

Setting up direct debits is a great way to grow your savings pot without having to remember to transfer money each month. You can set up a direct debit from as little as £25 (but you can choose to transfer more than this) and it will automatically recur each month.

Setting up direct debits is part of our onboarding flow, so you'll be invited to create a direct debit when you first sign up to Tembo. You’ll select a date and amount you want to be transferred into your account automatically each month.

You can amend the date or amount of your direct debit (or skip it) up to 3 working days before the payment date via the Tembo app. Your direct debit can be skipped for up to 3 months at a time, or even cancelled. Just make sure you do this before the 3 working day cut-off prior to each payment date.

🚨 Please note: It takes 1 working day after your direct debit is collected for the funds to land in your Lifetime ISA or Cash ISA. If you’re setting up a new direct debit, please allow up to 4 working days before your desired payment date for your new direct debit to be set up.

2. One-off contributions

This is the fastest & easiest way to add money, as top-ups only take 1-2 days to show in your account 🚀 You can top-up your account with as little as £10! Just tap the “Add money” button on the Tembo app’s home screen to get started.
