Lifetime isa is a good idea for the 25% bonus of £1000 on 4k.
Might work, dependent on time frame
Not sure if you can open it in kids name but of its yours then you must be under 40 years of age, to open an account.
Remember that you will loose 25% if you withdraw before 60, you can also use it for first house deposit, and all gains are tax free.
In a similar vein to the above, what's a good way to save for kids?
I'm vaguely aware that there are various kids and lifetime ISAs which do some kind of bonus but is that going to be better than a simple tracker or similar?
And how do you open these things for kids given they have no ID, etc. Do you just do it as the parent or is there a better way to do it?
