Why iTrustCapital?
Key benefits & what sets it apart

User experience highlights

- Instant buy/sell mechanics for supported assets

Account types & initial setup
Choose the right account
IRA flavors
Understanding whether to use a Traditional IRA, Roth IRA, or SEP IRA depends on your tax situation and retirement timeline. Each account type has different tax characteristics and eligibility rules; consider consulting a tax professional when choosing.
Creating your account
Sign-up commonly requires personal identification, Social Security number, and beneficiary information. Expect identity verification steps — these are standard for financial institutions and help protect your assets.
Funding options
Most users fund accounts via bank transfer (ACH) or IRA rollover. Plan transfers with your custodian or previous IRA administrator to minimize delays.
Security fundamentals
Protecting access and assets
Strong authentication
Always enable multi-factor authentication (MFA). Use an authenticator app (TOTP) or hardware security key where supported. SMS-only MFA is better than nothing but is less secure than app-based methods.
Password hygiene
Use a unique, long passphrase generated by a reputable password manager. Avoid reusing passwords across financial and non-financial sites. Change passwords immediately if you suspect compromise.
Device safety
Keep operating systems and browsers updated. Avoid logging in over public Wi‑Fi without a trusted VPN. Use device-level biometrics only when combined with a secure lock screen.
Login walkthrough — step by step
From visiting the site to successful access
Step 1: Visit the correct URL
Start at the official domain (type it manually or use a bookmark). Phishing attacks commonly present fake login pages — verify the TLS padlock and correct domain name before entering credentials.
Step 2: Enter username & password
Use your email or username registered with iTrustCapital. If you use a password manager, allow it to fill credentials to avoid typos and phishing substitutions.
Step 3: Complete MFA
After credential entry, complete the multi-factor challenge. Use an authenticator app for best security. If using a hardware token, follow browser prompts to complete the login.
Step 4: Review account dashboard
On first login you may see a welcome checklist — verify personal details, review funding status, and confirm notification preferences.
Troubleshooting common login issues
Quick fixes and when to contact support
Forgot password
Use the official "Forgot password" flow. Expect an email to confirm your identity; follow the link promptly. If no email arrives, check spam and verify the address used to enroll.
Locked account or suspicious activity
If your account is locked, follow the recovery prompts and contact iTrustCapital support if automated recovery fails. Report suspicious emails or login attempts immediately to reduce risk.
MFA device lost
If you lose access to your authenticator device, use backup codes if you stored them securely. Otherwise, contact support and be prepared to verify identity via documented ID verification processes.
Fees, pricing and account rules
What to expect vs. common questions
Custodial fees
Platforms like iTrustCapital typically charge custodial or platform fees and may add trading spreads for crypto and fees for gold allocation. Fee structures change — confirm current rates on the official pricing page before trading.
Reporting & tax forms
You will receive standard IRA tax documents for contributions and distributions. Cryptocurrency trades inside IRAs are handled within the account reporting; consult a tax professional about your specific tax situation.
Withdrawal and distribution rules
IRA rules apply: distributions before retirement age may incur taxes and penalties. Plan withdrawals carefully and consult your tax advisor when unsure.
Best practices for daily use
Small habits that protect your retirement assets
Routine checks
Review your account activity regularly, set up transaction alerts, and monitor for unfamiliar trades. Reconcile holdings with statements and report discrepancies promptly.
Update contact details
Keep your email, phone, and beneficiary information current. Outdated contact details can complicate recovery and delay important tax or compliance notices.
Periodic security refresh
Every 6–12 months, review MFA methods, rotate passwords if needed, and confirm that only authorized devices have access.
Help & resources
Where to learn more and get support
Official support channels
