How the offer works

How the pension transfer cashback offer works

  1. Open or hold a Lloyds pension
    You’ll need to hold or open a Lloyds Ready-Made Pension (RMP) and/or Lloyds Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP).
  2. Transfer one or more pensions online
    Complete an online transfer form for each transferring pension by 30 November 2026.
  3. Transfer at least £20,000 in total
    The combined value of eligible pension transfers must be £20,000 or more when the transfer(s) complete.

    If you make separate eligible transfers into a Ready-Made Pension and a Self-Invested Personal Pension, cashback will be calculated on the combined value of those transfers.
  4. Keep your pension invested
    To qualify for cashback, the transferred benefits must remain invested in your Lloyds RMP or SIPP until 31 May 2027 (market movements don’t affect eligibility).
  5. Receive your cashback
    Cashback will be paid into your Lloyds, Halifax or Bank of Scotland personal bank account by 30 June 2027, subject to the terms and conditions.

Let's break it down

You can take part in this offer if:

  • you’re a new or existing Lloyds customer
  • you hold or open a Lloyds Ready Made Pension or Lloyds SIPP
  • you hold or open a Lloyds, Halifax or Bank of Scotland personal bank account
  • you start an eligible pension transfer by 30 November 2026
  • your eligible transfers total £20,000 or more when they complete.

This offer doesn’t apply if:

  • the total value of eligible transfers requested by 30 November 2026 is under £20,000 when they complete
  • you transfer out some or all of the transferred benefits on or before 31 May 2027 and the recalculated value of your eligible transfers on 30 November 2026, is less than £20,000
  • your Lloyds, Halifax and Bank of Scotland personal bank account is closed before the cashback is paid
  • the transfer is from an existing Lloyds, Halifax, Bank of Scotland or a Scottish Widows – Ready-Made Pension or Self-Invested Personal Pension.

Is a pension transfer the right thing for you?

While there are benefits to combining your pensions, there are a few things you may want to understand before continuing.

Transferring isn’t right for everyone

Take the time to understand your choices and what you may be giving up. While there are benefits to combining your pensions, it’s worth checking whether your current pension includes any valuable benefits you’d lose when you transfer.

Remember, pensions are a long-term investment. The benefits you receive from a Lloyds Ready-Made Pension or Self-Invested Personal Pension will depend on a number of factors, including how much you pay in, how investments perform, how long you hold the pension, and the costs and charges we deduct. The value of investments isn't guaranteed and can go down as well as up, and you could get back less than you put in.

If you would like financial advice, you should speak to an Independent Financial Adviser. Unbiased and Vouchedfor will let you find a local adviser based on your requirements. There will be a charge for this service.

You can get free help and guidance through MoneyHelper, a government-backed service. If you’re over 50, you could also benefit from a free 60-minute appointment with Pension Wise.

You can’t transfer every type of pension.

We can’t accept transfers:

  • from final salary (defined benefits) scheme pensions (also referred to as ‘safeguarded benefits’)
  • which include other types of safeguarded benefits, such as a Guaranteed Annuity Rate (GAR), a Guaranteed Conversion Option (GCO), Section 9(2B) rights, or a Guaranteed Minimum Pension (GMP). Ask your current scheme for more details
  • from pensions already in drawdown
  • from workplace pension schemes that you and/or an employer are still paying into
  • from overseas pension schemes
  • of benefits which are subject to a bankruptcy order, pension earmarking or sharing order, or other receiving orders
  • of ‘disqualifying’ pension credits from a pension sharing order (where a pension sharing order has been applied to a pension already in drawdown).

How much cashback you could receive

The cashback you receive depends on the total value of eligible pension transfers when your transfer(s) complete.

    b) The Offer applies to transfer applications submitted using the online transfer journey between 1 June 2026 and 30 November 2026 (the “Offer Period”) which is set out in Section 3. Transfer requests must be completed in line with these Terms and Conditions, including the qualifying and maintenance requirements set out below in section 4.
    To qualify for this Offer, you and the pension(s) you are transferring must meet the criteria set out in Sections 3 to 7 of these Terms and Conditions.

    1.2. By taking part in this Offer, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. Please read them carefully before deciding whether to participate.

  • 2.1. Eligible customers may receive cashback when they transfer one or more eligible pension(s) with a combined value of £20,000 or more into a RMP and/or SIPP within the Offer Period.

    2.2. Where a customer transfers into both an RMP and a SIPP as part of the same application or transfer journey, this will be treated as a single eligible transfer for the Offer, and any cashback will be calculated based on the combined value transferred across both accounts.

    2.3. Cashback will be determined in line with the cashback bands set out in Section 8 below, based on the total combined value of eligible transfers at the point the transfer(s) complete.

    2.4. Where a customer makes multiple eligible transfers within the Offer Period, they will be treated as a single eligible transfer for the Offer and any cashback will be calculated on their combined value. The cashback band you qualify for will be determined based on the total combined value of those eligible transfers when your transfer(s) complete, subject to the qualifying and maintenance requirements set out in section 4.

    2.5. Stock value will be calculated at the mid-point closing price on the day it is received into the account. This is calculated to 4 decimal places.

    2.6. For the purposes of calculating cashback, eligible pension stock and cash transfers (where applicable) will be combined.

  • 3.1. This offer is available to new and existing customers.

    3.2. To qualify, you must:

    a) Open or already hold a Lloyds RMP and/or Lloyds SIPP; and
    b) Complete an online transfer form for each transfer request by 30 November 2026,
    c) You must hold or open a Lloyds Banking Group bank account in your name which must remain open and eligible to receive the cashback payment until payment is made.

    3.3. Transfer requests must be submitted during the Offer Period and have a combined value of at least £20,000 (valued at the point each transfer completes).

    3.4. This offer applies automatically. If you wish to opt out, you must contact us by telephone to do so.

  • 4.1. To remain eligible for cashback, the rights under the RMP or SIPP attributable to, or purchased by, the eligible transferred pension(s) must be maintained from when each transfer is received into the account until 31 May 2027 (Qualifying Period).

    4.2. Any withdrawals or transfers out of the RMP or SIPP during the Qualifying Period will reduce the rights attributable to, or purchased by, the eligible transferred pension(s), and will result in cashback being calculated on the value of the remaining rights attributable to, or purchased by, the eligible transferred pension(s) as at the date each eligible transfer completed. If the re-calculated value of those remaining rights is less that £20,000, no cashback will be paid. Otherwise, the cashback will be re-calculated using the cashback bands set out in Section 8 below.

    4.3. If the value of the rights attributable to, or purchased by, the eligible transferred pension(s) decreases solely due to market movements, the cashback entitlement will be unaffected.

    4.4. If, after cashback has been paid, you withdraw or transfer out from the RMP or SIPP before 31 December 2027, some or all of the rights attributable to, or purchased by, the eligible transferred pension(s), Lloyds reserves the right to reclaim some or all the cashback paid. The amount(s) reclaimed will be determined following each withdrawal or transfer and will be calculated using the methodology set out in 4.2 by deducting the revised cashback amount from the cashback paid.

Where re‑registration is not possible, investments may be sold by your existing provider in order to complete the transfer.

    6.2. If an investment cannot be re‑registered or sold, it will not be transferred and will remain with your existing provider. This may result in a partial transfer or, in some cases, your existing provider cancelling the transfer. We will contact you if this applies.
