Got questions?
Well, we've got answers.

What is Alto?

Alto is a self-directed IRA custodian that enables individuals to invest in alternative assets through a variety of partnerships and Alto’s capital raise platform, which allows issuers to bring individual offerings to the table.

What are the benefits of IRA capital?

By accepting IRA capital, you’re allowing your investors to tap into what could be their largest source of investable assets: their retirement funds. That means potentially closing your raise sooner. And by leveraging IRA capital, your investors are able to take advantage of the tax advantages afforded to traditional, Roth, and SEP IRA accounts. The type of deal and amount of investors that may access an offering is decided upon by the issuing company.

How much does it cost to list my offering?

There’s no cost to raising private capital using Alto. We don’t charge a placement fee, and we don’t take a cut of your raise, so you get every IRA dollar you accept.

Is it costly for my investors to contribute to my raise?

Not at all! For too long, investing in alternative assets using a self-directed IRA has been an expensive and laborious process. That goes against everything we stand for. At Alto, we’re on a mission to make alternatives accessible for all, and that starts with pricing that is fair. It’s also why we offer two pricing plans.

Individuals looking to invest in deals they source or that issuers invite them to through their Alto IRA will need to choose our Pro plan, which carries a low account fee of $25/month (or $250/year). Additionally, they’ll pay a $75 investment fee on every private investment they make. And that’s it!

Are investors required to be accredited?

Alto supports non-accredited investors as well as accredited investors. Anyone can create an Alto IRA account, though some offerings are open only to accredited investors. This determination is entirely up to the company issuing the offering.

How many investors can participate in an offering?

The number of investors allowed to participate in an offering is dependent on the rules and regulations of the Securities Act of 1933. For example, offerings under Rule 506(b) of Regulation D can have an unlimited number of accredited investors, and up to 35 non-accredited purchases.

Who can I contact with questions about setting up my offering?

You’ll likely find that most questions you have are answered on our Issuer Support page; however, if you have a question we didn’t answer, you can contact us here.
