Ablrate launched its IFISA on 2 August and says many users are new customers.
A note to investors also said ISA transfers would be allowed shortly.

The platform said there is a healthy pipeline of around £3m of loans for investors to fund, while the website will also soon be redesigned.
The asset-backed business lender launched in July 2014, specialising in funding leasing for aircraft transactions.
The platform, which has since expanded into capital equipment and property offers investors annual returns ranging between 10 and 14 per cent, giving potential for “significant risk adjusted returns” from the IFISA, the platform said.
