Sharesave maturity options

Hi all,
Looking for some advice as I've not done this before. I've gained £4500 from a sharesave scheme (put in approx £6k now worth approx £10.5k). My exercise choices are now:
- keep the shared in a corporate sponsored nominee
- keep the shares as a share certificate
- Sell the shares and receive the proceeds
I want to cash out and I thought the best way to do this was to transfer the funds to an ISA? But I'm not sure I see how to do this from the options. Can anyone tell me how please.
I believe CGT is payable over £3k, is that correct and is it still applicable if it goes into an ISA?
How do I proceed? TIA!

can you transfer a share certificate to the ISA?
otherwise if you cash out then you'd have the money in your account and can then pay that into an ISA.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe, Old Style Money Saving and Pensions boards.

Don't cash out - that will trigger CGT.
Have a look at this thread
Clarification needed on 90 day SAYE shares to ISA transfer. — MoneySavingExpert Forum
It mentions Equiniti as an ISA provider though you probably won't need to worry about the flexi ISA stuff.3 -
