Allocated Metals Benefits
NEED CONTENT Tired of waiting on custodians to approve every move? With a Checkbook IRA, you gain direct access to your retirement funds through an IRA-owned LLC. Write checks, initiate wire transfers, and seize investment opportunities in real-time—no delays, no gatekeepers.
Gold, silver, platinum and palladium coins that meet IRS guidelines can be held in your Solo 401(k), Traditional IRA, Roth IRA or Checkbook IRA account. Whether you're opening a new retirement account or adding to an existing one we make it easy to diversify your portfolio with precious metals.
We work with a network of carefully vetted storage providers*, including publicly traded vault operators, government-sponsored depositories and other approved facilities that have successfully completed our due diligence process. Every storage partner is selected to meet our standards for security, operational excellence and asset protection.
From American Eagles to Australian Kangaroos, you have access to a wide range of globally recognized bullion coins. Pick the coins that matter to you.
Opening an Allocated Metals account is simple. Begin with a $7,500 initial trade, and after that, you can trade at your own pace — no minimums, no pressure.
*Per IRS regulations, allocated coins must be stored through our secure storage partner (storage fees apply).
