Unlike ordinary debt securities, the notes do not pay interest. Instead, the notes provide for a maturity payment amount that may be greater than or equal to the principal amount of the notes, depending on the performance of the Basket from the starting level to the ending level. The maturity payment amount will reflect the following terms: |
|
n |
If the level of the Basket increases, you will receive the principal amount plus a positive return equal to 100% of the percentage increase in the level of the Basket from the starting level to the ending level, subject to a maximum return at maturity of 29.40% of the principal amount. As a result of the maximum return, the maximum maturity payment amount will be $1,294.00 per note. |
|
n |
If the level of the Basket remains flat or decreases, you will receive the principal amount, but you will not receive any positive return on your investment. |
|
n |
Repayment of principal at maturity regardless of Basket performance (subject to issuer credit risk) |
|
n |
Any payment on the notes, including any repayment of principal, is subject to the creditworthiness of Barclays Bank PLC and is not guaranteed by any third party. If Barclays Bank PLC were to default on its payment obligations or become subject to the exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power (as described on page PS-6 of this pricing supplement) by the relevant U.K. resolution authority, you might not receive any amounts owed to you under the notes. See “Selected Risk Considerations” and “Consent to U.K. Bail-in Power” in this pricing supplement and “Risk Factors” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. |

n |
No periodic interest payments or dividends |
|
n |
No exchange listing; designed to be held to maturity |
See “Additional Information about the
Issuer and the Notes” on page PS-4 of this pricing supplement. The notes will have the terms specified in the prospectus dated May
15, 2025, the prospectus supplement dated May 15, 2025, the product supplement no. WF-2 dated May 20, 2025 and the underlying supplement
dated May 15, 2025, as supplemented or superseded by this pricing supplement.
The notes have complex features and investing
in the notes involves risks not associated with an investment in conventional debt securities. See “Selected Risk Considerations”
on page PS-9 herein, “Risk Factors” beginning on page PS-3 of the product supplement and “Risk Factors” beginning
on page S-9 of the prospectus supplement.
The notes constitute our unsecured and unsubordinated
obligations. The notes are not deposit liabilities of Barclays Bank PLC and are not covered by the U.K. Financial Services Compensation
Scheme or insured by the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency or deposit insurance agency of the
United States, the United Kingdom or any other jurisdiction.
Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(the “SEC”) nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these notes or determined that this
pricing supplement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

initial sale of the notes. In addition, Barclays Capital Inc. or any other of our affiliates may use this pricing supplement in market
resale transactions in any of the notes after their initial sale. Unless we or our agent informs you otherwise in the confirmation of

Notwithstanding and to the exclusion of any
other term of the notes or any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between Barclays Bank PLC and any holder or beneficial
owner of the notes (or the trustee on behalf of the holders of the notes), by acquiring the notes, each holder or beneficial owner of
the notes acknowledges, accepts, agrees to be bound by, and consents to the exercise of, any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution
authority. See “Consent to U.K. Bail-in Power” on page PS-6 of this pricing supplement.

the notes conducts hedging activities for Barclays Bank PLC in connection with the notes, such agent or participating dealer will expect
to realize a projected profit from such hedging activities, and this projected profit will be in addition to any discount, concession
or fee received in connection with the sale of the notes to you. This additional projected profit may create a further incentive for the
agents or participating dealers to sell the notes to you.

or if the sponsor of a Basket Component fails to publish that Basket Component, the calculation agent may select a successor index or,
if no successor index is available, will calculate the value to be used as the closing level of that Basket Component. In addition, the
calculation agent will calculate the value to be used as the closing level of a Basket Component in the event of certain changes in or
modifications to that Basket Component. For more information, see “General Terms of the Notes—Certain Terms for Notes Linked
to an Index—Adjustments to an Index” and “—Discontinuance of an Index” in the accompanying product supplement.

Market Linked Notes—Upside Participation to a Cap and Principal Return at Maturity
Notes Linked to an Index Basket due January 2, 2029
Additional
Information Regarding Our Estimated Value of the Notes
Our internal pricing models take into account
a number of variables and are based on a number of subjective assumptions, which may or may not materialize, typically including volatility,
interest rates and our internal funding rates. Our internal funding rates (which are our internally published borrowing rates based on
variables, such as market benchmarks, our appetite for borrowing and our existing obligations coming to maturity) may vary from the levels
at which our benchmark debt securities trade in the secondary market. Our estimated value on the pricing date is based on our internal
funding rates. Our estimated value of the notes might be lower if such valuation were based on the levels at which our benchmark debt
securities trade in the secondary market.
Our estimated value of the notes on the pricing
date is less than the original offering price of the notes. The difference between the original offering price of the notes and our estimated
value of the notes results from several factors, including any sales commissions to be paid to Barclays Capital Inc. or another affiliate
of ours, any selling concessions, discounts, commissions or fees to be allowed or paid to non-affiliated intermediaries, the estimated
profit that we or any of our affiliates expect to earn in connection with structuring the notes, the estimated cost that we may incur
in hedging our obligations under the notes, and estimated development and other costs that we may incur in connection with the notes.
Our estimated value on the pricing date is not
a prediction of the price at which the notes may trade in the secondary market, nor will it be the price at which Barclays Capital Inc.
may buy or sell the notes in the secondary market. Subject to normal market and funding conditions, Barclays Capital Inc. or another affiliate
of ours intends to offer to purchase the notes in the secondary market but it is not obligated to do so.
Assuming that all relevant factors remain constant
after the pricing date, the price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may initially buy or sell the notes in the secondary market, if any,
and the value that we may initially use for customer account statements, if we provide any customer account statements at all, may exceed
our estimated value on the pricing date for a temporary period expected to be approximately four months after the initial issue date of
the notes because, in our discretion, we may elect to effectively reimburse to investors a portion of the estimated cost of hedging our
obligations under the notes and other costs in connection with the notes that we will no longer expect to incur over the term of the notes.
We made such discretionary election and determined this temporary reimbursement period on the basis of a number of factors, which may
include the tenor of the notes and/or any agreement we may have with the distributors of the notes. The amount of our estimated costs
that we effectively reimburse to investors in this way may not be allocated ratably throughout the reimbursement period, and we may discontinue
such reimbursement at any time or revise the duration of the reimbursement period after the initial issue date of the notes based on changes
in market conditions and other factors that cannot be predicted.
We urge you to read the “Selected Risk
Considerations” beginning on page PS-9 of this pricing supplement.
Market Linked Notes—Upside Participation to a Cap and Principal Return at Maturity
Notes Linked to an Index Basket due January 2, 2029
Consent
to U.K. Bail-in Power
Notwithstanding and to the exclusion of any
other term of the notes or any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between us and any holder or beneficial owner of the notes
(or the trustee on behalf of the holders of the notes), by acquiring the notes, each holder or beneficial owner of the notes acknowledges,
accepts, agrees to be bound by and consents to the exercise of, any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority.
Under the U.K. Banking Act 2009, as amended, the
relevant U.K. resolution authority may exercise a U.K. Bail-in Power in circumstances in which the relevant U.K. resolution authority
is satisfied that the resolution conditions are met. These conditions include that a U.K. bank or investment firm is failing or is likely
to fail to satisfy the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”) threshold conditions for authorization
to carry on certain regulated activities (within the meaning of section 55B FSMA) or, in the case of a U.K. banking group company that
is a European Economic Area (“EEA”) or third country institution or investment firm, that the relevant EEA or third
country relevant authority is satisfied that the resolution conditions are met in respect of that entity.
The U.K. Bail-in Power includes any write-down,
conversion, transfer, modification and/or suspension power, which allows for (i) the reduction or cancellation of all, or a portion, of
the principal amount of, or interest on, or any other amounts payable on, the notes; (ii) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the
principal amount of, or interest on, or any other amounts payable on, the notes into shares or other securities or other obligations of
Barclays Bank PLC or another person (and the issue to, or conferral on, the holder or beneficial owner of the notes of such shares, securities
or obligations); (iii) the cancellation of the notes and/or (iv) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the notes, or the amendment
of the amount of interest or any other amounts due on the notes, or the dates on which interest or any other amounts become payable, including
by suspending payment for a temporary period; which U.K. Bail-in Power may be exercised by means of a variation of the terms of the notes
solely to give effect to the exercise by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of such U.K. Bail-in Power. Each holder and beneficial
owner of the notes further acknowledges and agrees that the rights of the holders or beneficial owners of the notes are subject to, and
will be varied, if necessary, solely to give effect to, the exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority.
For the avoidance of doubt, this consent and acknowledgment is not a waiver of any rights holders or beneficial owners of the notes may
have at law if and to the extent that any U.K. Bail-in Power is exercised by the relevant U.K. resolution authority in breach of laws
applicable in England.
For more information, please see “Selected
Risk Considerations—Risks Relating to the Issuer—You May Lose Some or All of Your Investment If Any U.K. Bail-in Power Is
Exercised by the Relevant U.K. Resolution Authority” in this pricing supplement as well as “U.K. Bail-in Power,” “Risk
Factors—Risks Relating to the Securities Generally—Regulatory action in the event a bank or investment firm in the Group is
failing or likely to fail, including the exercise by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of a variety of statutory resolution powers,
could materially adversely affect the value of any securities” and “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Securities Generally—Under
the terms of the securities, you have agreed to be bound by the exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority”
in the accompanying prospectus supplement.
Market Linked Notes—Upside Participation to a Cap and Principal Return at Maturity
Notes Linked to an Index Basket due January 2, 2029
Investor
Considerations
The notes are not appropriate for all investors.
The notes may be an appropriate investment for you if all of the following statements are true:
| § | You do not seek an investment that produces periodic
interest or coupon payments or other sources of current income. |
| § | You anticipate that the ending level will be
greater than the starting level, and you are willing and able to accept the risk that, if it is not, you will receive only the principal
amount of your notes at maturity. |
| § | You are willing and able to accept that any potential
return on the notes is limited to the maximum return. |
| § | You are willing and able to accept the risks
associated with an investment linked to the performance of the Basket, as explained in more detail in the “Selected Risk Considerations”
section of this pricing supplement. |
| § | You understand and accept that you will not be
entitled to receive dividends or distributions that may be paid to holders of the securities composing the Basket Components, nor will
you have any voting rights with respect to the securities composing the Basket Components. |
| § | You do not seek an investment for which there
will be an active secondary market and you are willing and able to hold the notes to maturity. |
| § | You are willing and able to assume our credit
risk for all payments on the notes. |
| § | You are willing and able to consent to the exercise
of any U.K. Bail-in Power by any relevant U.K. resolution authority. |
The notes may not be an appropriate
investment for you if any of the following statements are true:
| § | You seek an investment that produces periodic
interest or coupon payments or other sources of current income. |
| § | You anticipate that the ending level will be
less than or equal to the starting level, or you are unwilling or unable to accept the risk that, if it is, you will receive only the
principal amount of your notes at maturity. |
| § | You seek an investment with uncapped exposure
to any positive performance of the Basket. |
| § | You are unwilling or unable to accept the risks
associated with an investment linked to the performance of the Basket, as explained in more detail in the “Selected Risk Considerations”
section of this pricing supplement. |
| § | You seek an investment that entitles you to dividends
or distributions on, or voting rights related to, the securities composing the Basket Components. |
| § | You seek an investment for which there will be
an active secondary market and/or you are unwilling or unable to hold the notes to maturity. |
| § | You are unwilling or unable to assume our credit
risk for all payments on the notes. |
| § | You are unwilling or unable to consent to the
exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by any relevant U.K. resolution authority. |
The considerations identified above are not
exhaustive. Whether or not the notes are an appropriate investment for you will depend on your individual circumstances, and you should
reach an investment decision only after you and your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors have carefully considered the
appropriateness of an investment in the notes in light of your particular circumstances. You should also review carefully the “Selected
Risk Considerations” beginning on page PS-9 of this pricing supplement and the “Risk Factors” beginning on page PS-3
of the accompanying product supplement and the “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-9 of the accompanying prospectus supplement
for risks related to an investment in the notes. For more information about the Basket and the Basket Components, please see the sections
titled “The S&P 500® Index” and “The EURO STOXX 50® Index” below.

Market Linked Notes—Upside Participation to a Cap and Principal Return at Maturity
Notes Linked to an Index Basket due January 2, 2029
Selected
Risk Considerations
An investment in the notes involves significant
risks. Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the Basket or its components. Some of the risks that apply to
an investment in the notes are summarized below, but we urge you to read the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the notes
generally in the “Risk Factors” sections of the product supplement and prospectus supplement. You should not purchase the
notes unless you understand and can bear the risks of investing in the notes.
Risks Relating to the Notes
Generally
| · | You May Not Receive Any Positive Return On
Your Investment In The Notes — Any amount you receive on the notes at stated maturity in excess of the principal amount will
depend on the percentage increase, if any, in the ending level of the Basket relative to the starting level. Because the level of the
Basket will be subject to market fluctuations, the ending level may be less than the starting level, in which case you will receive only
the principal amount of your notes at stated maturity. Even if the ending level is greater than the starting level, the amount you receive
at stated maturity may be only slightly greater than the principal amount, and your yield on the notes may be less than the yield you
would earn if you bought a traditional interest-bearing debt security of Barclays or another issuer with a similar credit rating with
the same stated maturity date. |
| · | Your Return Will Be Limited To The Maximum
Return And May Be Lower Than The Return On A Direct Investment In The Securities Composing the Basket Components — The opportunity
to participate in the possible increases in the level of the Basket through an investment in the notes will be limited because any positive
return on the notes will not exceed the maximum return, regardless of any increase in the level of the Basket, which may be significant.
Therefore, your return on the notes may be lower than the return on a direct investment in the Basket Components. Furthermore, the effect
of the upside participation rate will be progressively reduced for all ending levels exceeding the ending level at which the maximum return
is reached. |
| · | Correlation (Or Lack Of Correlation) Of Performances
Among The Basket Components May Adversely Affect Your Return On The Notes, And Changes In The Levels Of The Basket Components May Offset
Each Other — “Correlation” is a measure of the degree to which the returns of a pair of assets are similar to each
other over a given period in terms of timing and direction. Movements in the levels of the Basket Components may not correlate with each
other. At a time when the level of one Basket Component increases, the level of the other Basket Component may not increase as much, or
may even decline. Therefore, in calculating the Basket Components’ performance on the calculation day, an increase in the level
of a Basket Component may be moderated, or wholly offset, by a lesser increase or by a decline in the level of the other Basket Component.
In addition, however, high correlation of movements in the levels of the Basket Components could adversely affect your return on the notes
during periods of negative performance of the Basket Components. Changes in the correlation of the Basket Components may adversely affect
the market value of the notes. |
| · | No Periodic Interest Will Be Paid On The Notes
— No periodic payments of interest will be made on the notes. |
| · | Any Payment On The Notes Will Be Determined
Based On The Closing Levels Of The Basket Components On The Dates Specified — Any payment on the notes will be determined based
on the closing levels of the Basket Components on the dates specified. You will not benefit from any more favorable levels of the Basket
Components determined at any other time. |
| · | Owning The Notes Is Not The Same As Owning
The Securities Composing Either Or Both Of The Basket Components — The return on your notes may not reflect the return you would
realize if you actually owned the securities composing either or both of the Basket Components. For instance, as a holder of the notes,
you will not have voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions or any other rights that holders of the securities
composing either Basket Component would have. |
| · | No Assurance That The Investment View Implicit
In The Notes Will Be Successful — It is impossible to predict whether and the extent to which the level of the Basket will rise
or fall. There can be no assurance that the ending level will be greater than the starting level. The level of the Basket will be influenced
by complex and interrelated political, economic, financial and other factors that affect the Basket Components and the securities composing
the Basket Components. You should be willing to accept the downside risks associated with equities in general and each Basket Component
in particular. |
| · | You Will Be Required To Recognize Taxable
Income On The Notes Prior To Maturity — If you are a U.S. holder of a note, under our intended treatment of the notes, you will
be required to recognize taxable interest income in each year that you hold the note, even though you will not receive any payment in
respect of the note prior to maturity (or earlier sale, exchange or retirement). In addition, any gain you recognize will be treated as
ordinary interest income rather than capital gain. You should review the section of this pricing supplement entitled “Tax Considerations.” |
Risks Relating to the Issuer
| · | The Notes Are Subject To The Credit Risk Of
Barclays Bank PLC — The notes are unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations of the issuer, Barclays Bank PLC, and are not,
either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. Any |
Market Linked Notes—Upside Participation to a Cap and Principal Return at Maturity
Notes Linked to an Index Basket due January 2, 2029
payment to be made
on the notes, including any repayment of principal, is subject to the ability of Barclays Bank PLC to satisfy its obligations as they
come due and is not guaranteed by any third party. As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness of Barclays Bank PLC may affect
the market value of the notes and, in the event Barclays Bank PLC were to default on its obligations, you might not receive any amount
owed to you under the terms of the notes.
| · | You May Lose Some Or All Of Your Investment
If Any U.K. Bail-In Power Is Exercised By The Relevant U.K. Resolution Authority — Notwithstanding and to the exclusion of any
other term of the notes or any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between Barclays Bank PLC and any holder or beneficial
owner of the notes (or the trustee on behalf of the holders of the notes), by acquiring the notes, each holder or beneficial owner of
the notes acknowledges, accepts, agrees to be bound by, and consents to the exercise of, any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution
authority as set forth under “Consent to U.K. Bail-in Power” in this pricing supplement. Accordingly, any U.K. Bail-in Power
may be exercised in such a manner as to result in you and other holders and beneficial owners of the notes losing all or a part of the
value of your investment in the notes or receiving a different security from the notes, which may be worth significantly less than the
notes and which may have significantly fewer protections than those typically afforded to debt securities. Moreover, the relevant U.K.
resolution authority may exercise the U.K. Bail-in Power without providing any advance notice to, or requiring the consent of, the holders
and beneficial owners of the notes. The exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority with respect to the
notes will not be a default or an Event of Default (as each term is defined in the senior debt securities indenture) and the trustee will
not be liable for any action that the trustee takes, or abstains from taking, in either case, in accordance with the exercise of the U.K.
Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority with respect to the notes. See “Consent to U.K. Bail-in Power” in
this pricing supplement as well as “U.K. Bail-in Power,” “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Securities Generally—Regulatory
action in the event a bank or investment firm in the Group is failing or likely to fail, including the exercise by the relevant U.K. resolution
authority of a variety of statutory resolution powers, could materially adversely affect the value of any securities” and “Risk
Factors—Risks Relating to the Securities Generally—Under the terms of the securities, you have agreed to be bound by the exercise
of any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. |
Risks Relating to the Basket
Components
| · | There Are Risks Associated With Investments
In Securities Linked To The Value Of Non-U.S. Equity Securities In Non-U.S. Securities Markets With Respect To The SX5E Index —
The equity securities composing the SX5E Index are issued by non-U.S. companies in non-U.S. securities markets. Investments in securities
linked to the value of such non-U.S. equity securities involve risks associated with the securities markets in the home countries of the
issuers of those non-U.S. equity securities, including risks of volatility in those markets, governmental intervention in those markets
and cross shareholdings in companies in certain countries. Also, there is generally less publicly available information about companies
in some of these jurisdictions than there is about U.S. companies that are subject to the reporting requirements of the SEC, and generally
non-U.S. companies are subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements and securities trading rules
different from those applicable to U.S. reporting companies. The prices of securities in non-U.S. markets may be affected by political,
economic, financial and social factors in those countries, or global regions, including changes in government, economic and fiscal policies
and currency exchange laws. |
| · | The Securities Do Not Provide Direct Exposure
To Fluctuations In Exchange Rates Between The U.S. Dollar And The Euro With Respect To The SX5E Index — The SX5E Index
is composed of non-U.S. securities denominated in euros. Because the value of the SX5E Index is also calculated in euros (and not in U.S.
dollars), the performance of the SX5E Index will not be adjusted for exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the euro.
In addition, any payments on the securities determined based in part on the performance of the SX5E Index will not be adjusted for exchange
rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the euro. Therefore, holders of the securities will not benefit from any appreciation of
the euro relative to the U.S. dollar. |
| · | Each Basket Component Reflects The Price Return
Of The Securities Composing That Basket Component, Not The Total Return — The return on the notes is based on the performance
of a Basket composed of the Basket Components. The performance of each Basket Component reflects changes in the market prices of the securities
composing that Basket Component. Each Basket Component is not a “total return” index that, in addition to reflecting those
price returns, would also reflect dividends paid on the securities composing the applicable Basket Component. Accordingly, the return
on the notes will not include such a total return feature. |
| · | We Cannot Control Actions Of Any Of The Unaffiliated
Companies Whose Securities Are Included As Components Of The Basket Components — Actions by any company whose securities are
components of a Basket Component may have an adverse effect on the price of its security, the closing level of such Basket Component on
the calculation day and the value of the notes. These unaffiliated companies will not be involved in the offering of the notes and will
have no obligations with respect to the notes, including any obligation to take our or your interests into consideration for any reason.
These companies will not receive any of the proceeds of the offering of the notes and will not be responsible for, and will not have participated
in, the determination of the timing of, prices for, or quantities of, the notes to be issued. These companies will not be involved with
the administration, marketing or trading of the notes and will have no obligations with respect to any amounts to be paid to you on the
notes. |

Notes Linked to an Index Basket due January 2, 2029
| · | We And Our Affiliates Have No Affiliation
With The Sponsor Of Either Basket Component And Have Not Independently Verified Their Public Disclosure Of Information —
We, our affiliates and WFS and its affiliates are not affiliated in any way with the sponsor of either Basket Component and have no ability
to control or predict their actions, including any errors in or discontinuation of disclosure regarding the methods or policies relating
to the calculation of the applicable Basket Component. We have derived the information about each Basket Component contained
in this pricing supplement and the accompanying underlying supplement from publicly available information, without independent
verification. You, as an investor in the notes, should make your own investigation into each Basket Component and the sponsor of each
Basket Component. The sponsor of each Basket Component will not be involved in the offering of the notes made hereby in any way, and the
index sponsors do not have any obligation to consider your interests as an owner of the notes in taking any actions that might affect
the value of the notes. |
| · | Adjustments To The Basket Components Could
Adversely Affect The Value Of The Notes And The Amount You Will Receive At Maturity — The sponsor of a Basket Component may
add, delete, substitute or adjust the securities composing that Basket Component or make other methodological changes to that Basket Component
that could affect its performance. The calculation agent will calculate the value to be used as the closing level of a Basket Component
in the event of certain material changes in or modifications to that Basket Component. In addition, a sponsor of a Basket Component may
also discontinue or suspend calculation or publication of that Basket Component at any time. Under these circumstances, the calculation
agent may select a successor index that the calculation agent determines to be comparable to the discontinued Basket Component or, if
no successor index is available, the calculation agent will determine the value to be used as the closing level of that Basket Component.
Any of these actions could adversely affect the level of the relevant Basket Component and, consequently, the value of the notes. See
“General Terms of the Notes—Certain Terms for Notes Linked to an Index—Adjustments to an Index” and “—Discontinuance
of an Index” in the accompanying product supplement. |
| · | The Historical Performance Of The Basket Components
Is Not An Indication Of Their Future Performance — The historical performance of the Basket Components should not be taken as
an indication of the future performance of the Basket Components. It is impossible to predict whether the closing levels of the Basket
Components will fall or rise during the term of the notes, in particular in the environment in the last several years, which has been
characterized by volatility across a wide range of asset classes. Past fluctuations and trends in the levels of the Basket Components
are not necessarily indicative of fluctuations or trends that may occur in the future. |
Risks Relating to Conflicts
of Interest
| · | Potentially Inconsistent Research, Opinions
Or Recommendations By Barclays Capital Inc., WFS Or Their Respective Affiliates — Barclays Capital Inc., WFS or their respective
affiliates may publish research from time to time on financial markets and other matters that may influence the value of the notes or
express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the notes. Any research, opinions or recommendations
expressed by Barclays Capital Inc., WFA or their respective affiliates may not be consistent with each other and may be modified from
time to time without notice. You should make your own independent investigation of each Basket Component and the merits of investing in
the notes. |
| · | We, Our Affiliates And Any Other Agent And/Or
Participating Dealer May Engage In Various Activities Or Make Determinations That Could Materially Affect Your Notes In Various Ways And
Create Conflicts Of Interest — We, our affiliates, WFS and any dealer participating in the distribution of the notes (a “participating
dealer”) may play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the notes, as described below. In performing these roles,
our economic interests and the economic interests of our affiliates, WFS and any participating dealer are potentially adverse to your
interests as an investor in the notes. |
In connection with
our normal business activities and in connection with hedging our obligations under the notes, we and our affiliates make markets in and
trade various financial instruments or products for our accounts and for the account of our clients and otherwise provide investment banking
and other financial services with respect to these financial instruments and products. These financial instruments and products may include
securities, derivative instruments or assets that may relate to the Basket Components or their components. In any such market making,
trading and hedging activity, investment banking and other financial services, we or our affiliates may take positions or take actions
that are inconsistent with, or adverse to, the investment objectives of the holders of the notes. We and our affiliates have no obligation
to take the needs of any buyer, seller or holder of the notes into account in conducting these activities. Such market making, trading
and hedging activity, investment banking and other financial services may negatively impact the value of the notes. Participating dealers
may also engage in such activities that may negatively impact the value of the notes.
In addition, the role
played by Barclays Capital Inc., as the agent for the notes, could present significant conflicts of interest with the role of Barclays
Bank PLC, as issuer of the notes. For example, Barclays Capital Inc. or its representatives may derive compensation or financial benefit
from the distribution of the notes and such compensation or financial benefit may serve as an incentive to sell the notes instead of other
investments. Furthermore, we and our affiliates establish the offering price of the notes for initial sale to the public, and the offering
price is not based upon any independent verification or valuation.
Market Linked Notes—Upside Participation to a Cap and Principal Return at Maturity
Notes Linked to an Index Basket due January 2, 2029
Furthermore, if any
dealer participating in the distribution of the notes or any of its affiliates conducts hedging activities for us in connection with the
notes, that participating dealer or its affiliates will expect to realize a projected profit from such hedging activities, and this projected
profit will be in addition to any selling concession and/or any fee that the participating dealer realizes for the sale of the notes to
you. This additional projected profit may create a further incentive for the participating dealer to sell the notes to you.
In addition to the
activities described above, Barclays Bank PLC will also act as the calculation agent for the notes. As calculation agent, we will determine
any levels of the Basket Components and make any other determinations necessary to calculate any payments on the notes. In making these
determinations, we may be required to make discretionary judgments, including those described in the accompanying product supplement and
under “—Risks Relating to the Basket Components” above. In making these discretionary judgments, our economic interests
are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the notes, and any of these determinations may adversely affect any payments
on the notes. Absent manifest error, all determinations of the calculation agent will be final and binding, without any liability on the
part of the calculation agent. You will not be entitled to any compensation from Barclays Bank PLC for any loss suffered as a result of
any determinations made by the calculation agent with respect to the notes.
Risks Relating to the Estimated
Value of the Notes and the Secondary Market
| · | The Notes Will Not Be Listed On Any Securities
Exchange And We Do Not Expect A Trading Market For The Notes To Develop — The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange.
Barclays Capital Inc. and other affiliates of Barclays Bank PLC intend to make a secondary market for the notes but are not required to
do so, and may discontinue any such secondary market making at any time, without notice. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not
provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the notes easily. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market
for the notes, the price at which you may be able to trade your notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which Barclays Capital
Inc. and other affiliates of Barclays Bank PLC are willing to buy the notes. The notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments.
Accordingly, you should be willing and able to hold your notes to maturity. |
| · | The Value Of The Notes Prior To Maturity Will
Be Affected By Numerous Factors, Some Of Which Are Related In Complex Ways — Structured notes, including the notes, can be thought
of as securities that combine a debt instrument with one or more options or other derivative instruments. As a result, the factors that
influence the values of debt instruments and options or other derivative instruments will also influence the terms and features of the
notes at issuance and their value in the secondary market. Accordingly, in addition to the levels of the Basket Components on any day,
the value of the notes will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each other, including: |
| · | the expected volatility of the Basket, the Basket
Components and the components of each Basket Component; |
| · | the correlation (or lack of correlation) among
the Basket Components; |
| · | the time to maturity of the notes; |
| · | the market prices of, and dividend rates on,
the securities composing the Basket Components; |
| · | interest and yield rates in the market generally; |
| · | supply and demand for the notes; |
| · | the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar relative
to the euro; |
| · | a variety of economic, financial, political,
regulatory and judicial events; and |
| · | our creditworthiness, including actual or anticipated
downgrades in our credit ratings. |
| · | The Estimated Value Of Your Notes Is Lower
Than The Original Offering Price Of Your Notes — The estimated value of your notes on the pricing date is lower than the original
offering price of your notes. The difference between the original offering price of your notes and the estimated value of the notes is
a result of certain factors, such as any sales commissions, selling concessions, discounts, commissions or fees to be allowed or paid
to Barclays Capital Inc., another affiliate of ours, WFS or its affiliates or other non-affiliated intermediaries, the estimated profit
that we or any of our affiliates expect to earn in connection with structuring the notes, the estimated cost that we may incur in hedging
our obligations under the notes, and estimated development and other costs that we may incur in connection with the notes. |
| · | The Estimated Value Of Your Notes Might Be
Lower If Such Estimated Value Were Based On The Levels At Which Our Debt Securities Trade In The Secondary Market — The estimated
value of your notes on the pricing date is based on a number of variables, including our internal funding rates. Our internal funding
rates may vary from the levels at which our benchmark debt securities trade in the secondary market. As a result of this difference, the
estimated value referenced above might be lower if such estimated value were based on the levels at which our benchmark debt securities
trade in the secondary market. |
Market Linked Notes—Upside Participation to a Cap and Principal Return at Maturity
Notes Linked to an Index Basket due January 2, 2029
| · | The Estimated Value Of The Notes Is Based
On Our Internal Pricing Models, Which May Prove To Be Inaccurate And May Be Different From The Pricing Models Of Other Financial Institutions
— The estimated value of your notes on the pricing date is based on our internal pricing models, which take into account a number
of variables and are based on a number of subjective assumptions, which may or may not materialize. These variables and assumptions are
not evaluated or verified on an independent basis. Further, our pricing models may be different from other financial institutions’
pricing models and the methodologies used by us to estimate the value of the notes may not be consistent with those of other financial
institutions that may be purchasers or sellers of notes in the secondary market. As a result, the secondary market price of your notes
may be materially different from the estimated value of the notes determined by reference to our internal pricing models. |
| · | The Estimated Value Of Your Notes Is Not A
Prediction Of The Prices At Which You May Sell Your Notes In The Secondary Market, If Any, And Such Secondary Market Prices, If Any, Will
Likely Be Lower Than The Original Offering Price Of Your Notes And May Be Lower Than The Estimated Value Of Your Notes — The
estimated value of the notes will not be a prediction of the prices at which Barclays Capital Inc., other affiliates of ours or third
parties may be willing to purchase the notes from you in secondary market transactions (if they are willing to purchase, which they are
not obligated to do). The price at which you may be able to sell your notes in the secondary market at any time will be influenced by
many factors that cannot be predicted, such as market conditions, and any bid and ask spread for similar sized trades, and may be substantially
less than our estimated value of the notes. Further, as secondary market prices of your notes take into account the levels at which our
debt securities trade in the secondary market, and do not take into account our various costs related to the notes such as fees, commissions,
discounts, and the costs of hedging our obligations under the notes, secondary market prices of your notes will likely be lower than the
original offering price of your notes. As a result, the price at which Barclays Capital Inc., other affiliates of ours or third parties
may be willing to purchase the notes from you in secondary market transactions, if any, will likely be lower than the price you paid for
your notes, and any sale prior to the stated maturity date could result in a substantial loss to you. |
| · | The Temporary Price At Which We May Initially
Buy The Notes In The Secondary Market And The Value We May Initially Use For Customer Account Statements, If We Provide Any Customer Account
Statements At All, May Not Be Indicative Of Future Prices Of Your Notes — Assuming that all relevant factors remain constant
after the pricing date, the price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may initially buy or sell the notes in the secondary market (if Barclays
Capital Inc. makes a market in the notes, which it is not obligated to do) and the value that we may initially use for customer account
statements, if we provide any customer account statements at all, may exceed our estimated value of the notes on the pricing date, as
well as the secondary market value of the notes, for a temporary period after the initial issue date of the notes. The price at which
Barclays Capital Inc. may initially buy or sell the notes in the secondary market and the value that we may initially use for customer
account statements may not be indicative of future prices of your notes. |

Hypothetical
Examples and Returns
The payout profile, return table and examples
below illustrate the maturity payment amount for a $1,000 principal amount note on a hypothetical offering of notes under various scenarios,
with the assumptions set forth in the table below. Terms used for purposes of these hypothetical examples do not represent the actual
starting component level of either Basket Component or the actual ending level applicable to the notes. The actual maturity payment amount
and resulting pre-tax total rate of return will depend on the actual terms of the notes. You should not take these examples as an indication
or assurance of the expected performance of the notes. These examples are for purposes of illustration only. The values used in the examples
may have been rounded for ease of analysis. The examples below do not take into account any tax consequences from investing in the notes.

either Basket Component. The actual starting component level for each Basket Component is set forth under “Terms of the Notes”
above. The actual ending level will be based upon the closing levels of the Basket Components on the calculation day. For historical closing
levels of the Basket Components and historical performance of the Basket, see the historical information set forth under the sections
titled “The Basket,” “The S&P 500® Index” and “The EURO STOXX 50® Index”
below. We cannot predict the level of the Basket or the closing level of either Basket Component on any day during the term of the notes,
including on the calculation day.

Hypothetical Examples
Example 1. Maturity payment amount is greater
than the principal amount and reflects a return that is less than the maximum return:
|
SPX Index |
SX5E Index |
Hypothetical starting component level: |
100.000 |
100.00 |
Hypothetical ending component level: |
130.000 |
80.00 |
Hypothetical component return: |
30.00% |
-20.00% |
Based on the component returns set forth above, the
hypothetical ending level would equal:
100 × [1 + (50% × 30.00%) + (50% ×
-20.00%)] = 105.00
Therefore, the hypothetical ending level is 105.00,
resulting in a basket return of 5.00%.
Because the hypothetical ending level is greater
than the starting level, the maturity payment amount per note would be equal to the principal amount of $1,000 plus a positive
return equal to the lesser of:
(i) $1,000 × basket return × upside
participation rate
= $1,000 × 5.00% × 100%
= $50.00; and
(ii) the maximum return of $294.00
On the stated maturity date, you would receive
$1,050.00 per note.
Market Linked Notes—Upside Participation to a Cap and Principal Return at Maturity
Notes Linked to an Index Basket due January 2, 2029
Example 2. Maturity payment amount is greater
than the principal amount and reflects a return equal to the maximum return:
|
SPX Index |
SX5E Index |
Hypothetical starting component level: |
100.000 |
100.00 |
Hypothetical ending component level: |
180.000 |
140.00 |
Hypothetical component return: |
80.00% |
40.00% |
Based on the component returns set forth above, the
hypothetical ending level would equal:
100 × [1 + (50% × 80.00%) + (50% ×
40.00%)] = 160.00
Therefore, the hypothetical ending level is 160.00,
resulting in a basket return of 60.00%.
Because the hypothetical ending level is greater
than the starting level, the maturity payment amount per note would be equal to the principal amount of $1,000 plus a positive
return equal to the lesser of:
(i) $1,000 × basket return × upside
participation rate
= $1,000 × 60.00% × 100%
= $600.00; and
(ii) the maximum return of $294.00
On the stated maturity date, you would receive $1,294.00
per note, which is the maximum maturity payment amount.
Example 3. Maturity payment amount is equal
to the principal amount:
|
SPX Index |
SX5E Index |
Hypothetical starting component level: |
100.000 |
100.00 |
Hypothetical ending component level: |
50.000 |
25.00 |
Hypothetical component return: |
-50.00% |
-75.00% |
Based on the component returns set
forth above, the hypothetical ending level would equal:
100 × [1 + (50% × -50.00%)
+ (50% × -75.00%)] = 37.50
Therefore, the hypothetical ending level
is 37.50, resulting in a basket return of -62.50%.
On the stated maturity date, you would
receive $1,000.00 per note.
Because the hypothetical ending level
is less than or equal to the starting level, the maturity payment amount per note would equal the principal amount. This example illustrates
that the notes provide for the repayment of the principal amount at maturity even in scenarios in which the ending level of the basket
declines significantly from the starting level (subject to issuer credit risk).
Market Linked Notes—Upside Participation to a Cap and Principal Return at Maturity
Notes Linked to an Index Basket due January 2, 2029
Example 4. Maturity payment amount is equal
to the principal amount:
|
SPX Index |
SX5E Index |
Hypothetical starting component level: |
100.000 |
100.00 |
Hypothetical ending component level: |
150.000 |
20.00 |
Hypothetical component return: |
50.00% |
-80.00% |
Based on the component returns set
forth above, the hypothetical ending level would equal:
100 × [1 + (50% × 50.00%)
+ (50% × -80.00%)] = 85.00
Therefore, the hypothetical ending level
is 85.00, resulting in a basket return of -15.00%.
On the stated maturity date, you would
receive $1,000.00 per note.
Because the hypothetical ending level
is less than or equal to the starting level, the maturity payment amount per note would equal the principal amount. In this example, the
significant decrease in one of the Basket Components has a significant impact on the ending level notwithstanding the percentage increase
in the other Basket Component.

The
Basket
The notes are linked to an equally weighted basket
consisting of the SPX Index and the SX5E Index. While historical information on the Basket does not exist for dates prior to the pricing
date, the following graph sets forth the performance of the Basket from January 1, 2020 through June 27, 2025, assuming that, on January
1, 2020, the Basket was constructed with the specified weights for the Basket Components, the starting component levels were determined
and the starting level was set equal to 100.
Historical Information
We obtained the closing levels of each Basket
Component used to calculate the graph below from Bloomberg Professional® service (“Bloomberg”) without independent
verification. The historical performance of the Basket should not be taken as an indication of the future performance of the Basket. Future
performance of the Basket may differ significantly from historical performance, and no assurance can be given as to the level of the Basket
during the term of the notes, including on the calculation day. We cannot give you assurance that the performance of the Basket will result
in a payment at maturity in excess of the principal amount.
The performance of the Basket will reflect the
performance of the Basket Components. See “Risk Factors—Correlation (Or Lack Of Correlation) Of Performances Among The Basket
Components May Adversely Affect Your Return On The Notes, And Changes In The Levels Of The Basket Components May Offset Each Other”

Tax
Considerations
There is uncertainty regarding the U.S. federal
income tax consequences of an investment in the notes due to the lack of governing authority. You should review carefully the sections
entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Notes Treated as Indebtedness
for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes” and, if you are a non-U.S. holder, “—Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders,”
in the accompanying prospectus supplement. The discussion below applies to you only if you are an initial purchaser of the notes; if you
are a secondary purchaser of the notes, the tax consequences to you may be different. In the opinion of our special tax counsel, Davis
Polk & Wardwell LLP, the notes should be treated as debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The remainder of this discussion
assumes that this treatment is correct.
Based on current market conditions, we intend
to treat the notes as “contingent payment debt instruments” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as described under “—Contingent
Payment Debt Instruments” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. The remainder of this discussion assumes that this treatment
is correct.
Assuming that our treatment of the notes as contingent
payment debt instruments is correct, regardless of your method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes, you generally will
be required to accrue taxable interest income in each year on a constant yield to maturity basis at the “comparable yield,”
as determined by us, even though we will not be required to make any payment with respect to the notes prior to maturity. Upon a sale
or exchange (including redemption at maturity), you generally will recognize taxable income or loss equal to the difference between the
amount received from the sale or exchange and your adjusted tax basis in the notes. You generally must treat any income as interest income
and any loss as ordinary loss to the extent of previous interest inclusions, and the balance as capital loss. The deductibility of capital
losses is subject to limitations. Special rules may apply if the amount payable at maturity is treated as becoming fixed prior to maturity.
You should consult your tax advisor concerning the application of these rules.
Our intended treatment of the notes as CPDIs will
be binding on you, unless you properly disclose to the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) an alternative treatment. Also,
the IRS may challenge the treatment of the notes as CPDIs. If the IRS successfully challenges the treatment of the notes as CPDIs, then
the notes will be treated as debt instruments that are not CPDIs and, would require the accrual of original issue discount as ordinary
interest income based on a yield to maturity higher than the comparable yield. Accordingly, under this treatment, your annual taxable
income from (and adjusted tax basis in) the notes would be higher than if the notes were treated as CPDIs, and any loss recognized upon
a disposition of the notes (including upon maturity) would be capital loss, the deductibility of which is subject to limitations. Accordingly,
this alternative treatment could result in adverse tax consequences to you. The discussions herein and in the accompanying prospectus
supplement do not address the consequences to taxpayers subject to special tax accounting rules under Section 451(b).You should consult
your tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the notes, as well as tax consequences arising under
the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.
After the original issue date, you may obtain
the comparable yield and the projected payment schedule by requesting them from Barclays Cross Asset Sales Americas, at (212) 528-7198.
Neither the comparable yield nor the projected payment schedule constitutes a representation by us regarding the actual amount that we
will pay on the notes.
Non-U.S. holders. We do not believe that non-U.S.
holders should be required to provide a Form W-8 in order to avoid 30% U.S. withholding tax with respect to the excess (if any) of the
payment at maturity over the face amount of the notes, although the IRS could challenge this position. However, non-U.S. holders should
in any event expect to be required to provide appropriate Forms W-8 or other documentation in order to establish an exemption from backup
withholding, as described under the heading “—Information Reporting and Backup Withholding” in the accompanying prospectus
supplement. If any withholding is required, we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts withheld.
Treasury regulations under Section 871(m) generally
impose a withholding tax on certain “dividend equivalents” under certain “equity linked instruments.” A recent
IRS notice excludes from the scope of Section 871(m) instruments issued prior to January 1, 2027 that do not have a “delta of one”
with respect to underlying securities that could pay U.S.-source dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes (each an “Underlying
Security”). Based on our representation that the notes do not have a “delta of one” within the meaning of the regulations,
our special tax counsel believes that these regulations should not apply to the notes with regard to non-U.S. holders, and we have determined
to treat the notes as not being subject to Section 871(m). Our determination is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with
this determination. Section 871(m) is complex and its application may depend on your particular circumstances, including whether you enter
into other transactions with respect to an Underlying Security. You should consult your tax advisor regarding the potential application
of Section 871(m) to the notes.
Non-U.S. holders should also discuss with their
tax advisors the estate tax consequences of investing in the notes.

all as stated in the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, dated May 15, 2025, which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement referred to above.
