Is my client’s money safe?

Yes, your client's money is safe with Tide. Most of our members have ClearBank accounts and their eligible deposits up to £85,000 are protected by the UK Government’s deposit guarantee scheme. This is the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). If the sort code of your client's account is 04-06-05, then it's a ClearBank account. In the past we offered e-money accounts to new customers, but we no longer do. If your client still has an e-money account with us, then the money in their account is stored and protected. With an e-money account, the money is never invested or loaned out, and is safeguarded in line with regulatory requirements. FSCS protection does not apply to the legacy e-money accounts. If the sort code of your client's account is 23-69-72, then it's a legacy e-money account.
