Account Fee Schedule

All-Inclusive Fee Schedule Provides Unbeatable Value

Equity Trust’s continued growth and success is based in part on our commitment to providing incredible services for a fair price. While some IRA custodians have complicated fee structures and others require large upfront set-up fees (sometimes thousands of dollars), we provide a straightforward fee schedule.

With our all-inclusive fee schedule, there are no hidden fees or surprise charges. It’s very simple and easy to understand, and it comes with unbeatable value that you can only get from a leading self-directed IRA custodian.

Coverdell Education Savings Accounts for Minors

Special maintenance fees apply to Equity Trust CESA accounts opened on behalf of children and teenagers under the age of 18:

  • When a minor opens an Equity Trust account valued at $10,000 or less, a $50 one-time set-up fee is assessed along with a $75 yearly maintenance fee.
  • Once the child reaches age 18 or the account exceeds $10,000, the account converts to the regular maintenance fee schedule and is billed annually.
