¹ Holding Fees are charged monthly, and may be paid via credit card, ACH or from available cash in the account (there must be adequate cash in the account to cover the charge).
² Holding Fees for Digital Assets are calculated in arrears as 0.083% monthly based on the average account balance held the previous month, and may also be pulled from liquid digital holdings, if requested. Fees are not prorated.
³ Transaction and Service Fees are not prorated and are charged as they are incurred upon each occurrence. These fees may be charged to a credit card or paid from available cash in the account (there must be adequate cash in the account to cover the charge). For an asset purchase, if you request the fees to be paid from available cash and the account’s available cash is insufficient to cover the charge, Digital Trust reserves the right, at its discretion, to reduce the amount sent for the investment by the fee amount due.
⁴ Equity and public security trades placed through the Choice app incur an additional $0.005 per share fee charged by Interactive Brokers ($1 minimum per trade).
