Making a single contribution

If your client wants to make a single contribution into their pension with us, everything you need to get started is right here.

If you’re just looking to start a conversation about the benefits of making a one-off payment, or even brush up on all the different tax rates and allowances, we can help you with that too.

How to pay

Submit applications online without a signature

It’s quick and easy to submit single contribution applications for existing Pension Portfolio clients with our online form - simply log into online service (opens in a new window) to get started.

  • less than two years since the last single contribution
  • no change to adviser
