ACAT Transfer In Process
If you wish to partially or fully transfer your positions and/or funds to your Ustocktrade account, contact Ustocktrade Support with your request.
We will send you an application to set up a temporary transfer account. We will also request for an account statement that shows the positions to be transferred and their cost basis.
Once the completed application and requested documents are submitted to us, a transfer account will be opened for you with our clearing firm. This process can take between 3 to 5 business days.
When the transfer account is opened, your ACAT request will be submitted to the sending broker. Once your position/s and funds have been received to your transfer account, they will be reviewed and moved to your Ustocktrade account.
Supported Securities
Only fully paid for US-listed equities and ETFs supported by Ustocktrade will be accepted.
We do not accept the following securities:
- Margined Securities
- Limited Partnerships
- Rights
- Warrants
- OTC-traded symbols
- Options
- Futures
Please see this FAQ for more details on available securities.
Residual Distributions (applicable for full transfers only)
If any corporate actions or distributions are paid within 60 days from your transfer to your outside brokerage account, you can contact Ustocktrade Support with a request to transfer to the distribution to your Ustocktrade account.
ACAT Transfer In Fee
Ustocktrade does not charge a fee for transfers in.
ACAT Transfer Out Process
If you wish to partially or fully transfer your positions and/or funds to another brokerage account, contact Ustocktrade Support with your request.
We will send you an application to set up a temporary transfer account. Once the completed application is submitted to us, a transfer account will be opened for you with our clearing firm. This process can take between 3 to 5 business days.
The ACAT out request submitted to your receiving broker will always be a full transfer out of your transfer account. If you require a partial transfer from your Ustocktrade account to your transfer account, please inform Ustocktrade Support at the time of the ACAT request.
When the transfer account is opened, we will send you a notification that your positions and funds will be moved at the end of the day. The ACAT transfer out fee will be charged at that time as well. Once your position/s and funds have been moved to the transfer account, they cannot be accessed until the transfer is complete. If you have requested to transfer all positions and funds out of your Ustocktrade account, your account will be closed once the positions and funds have been moved to the transfer account*.
Once your positions and funds have been moved to the transfer account, we will provide you with the information the receiving broker will need to initiate the full ACAT transfer.
Residual Distributions (applicable for full transfers only)
*Any corporate actions or distributions that are paid within 60 days from your transfer will be credited to your Ustocktrade trading account, and promptly transferred to the transfer account to be made available for the receiving broker-dealer to transfer to your account. No membership fees will be charged to your Ustocktrade trading account during this period.
ACAT Transfer Out Fee
Partial or full transfers will cost $75. The fee will be deducted from your Ustocktrade fund balance at the time your positions and funds are moved to the transfer account.
