You can easily set up incoming or outgoing electronic fund transfers (ACH) between your bank and eOption brokerage account, including automatic contributions to your IRA. Transfers can be made on demand or on a recurring basis.
To start using ACH, you have two options:
1. Set up your ACH relationship entirely online. This is the fastest and easiest way to link your accounts. This process may be completed during the online account opening process or, once your eOption account is set up, you may establish an ACH relationship within our Additional Services/Cash Management tab after you login to our secure trading platform. This process requires you to enter your banking relationship and answer personalized questions via our secure connection with VISA Plaid.
Please note: your login data is fully encrypted and eOption never has access to your credentials.
2. Set up your ACH relationship manually. You may complete and return an ACH Authorization Form, including a voided check or bank letter. After receipt of your ACH authorization, activation may take up to 10 business days. Voided checks for ACH set ups must have an address printed on the check matching the address on the brokerage account. If the attached voided check does not have a matching address, a copy of a driver’s license/State ID or a bank statement with an address matching your brokerage account must be included along with your ACH form.
