iTrustCapital

iTrustCapital, founded in 2018 and headquartered in Irvine, California, is an award-winning fintech software platform that provides 24/7 access to digital assets through secure Premium Custody Accounts and Tax-Advantaged Crypto IRAs.

What Sets iTrustCapital Apart

• Multiple Account Types: The platform provides investors access to invest in dozens of cryptocurrencies and precious metals through a secure Premium Custody Account (PCA) or a Tax-Advantaged Crypto IRA.
• Premium Custody Account (PCA): Crypto hacks and wallet drains have cost investors millions, leaving many searching for a safer way to buy, sell, and store digital assets. A PCA is a non-IRA (non-retirement) account that lets clients buy and sell crypto 24/7. Transactions are taxable, with no annual contribution limits, and the structure differs from exchange-based accounts or self-custody wallets by prioritizing secure custody. At the core of a PCA is iTrustCapital’s closed-loop system.
  • Closed-Loop System: Unlike traditional crypto exchanges, where assets can be moved to external wallets by users or exploited through unauthorized access, Premium Custody Account (PCA) operates within a closed-loop system. Clients can fund their PCA with either USD or eligible crypto in-kind, but withdrawals are limited to USD only and must be sent to a U.S. bank account. It does not allow an account to be withdrawn as digital assets. This feature helps mitigate the risk of funds being drained from a compromised account.
• Tax-Advantaged Crypto IRA: A Crypto IRA is a type of self-directed Individual Retirement Account (SDIRA) that gives clients access to buy and sell dozens of cryptocurrencies 24/7 with tax benefits. Clients can buy and sell dozens of cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Ripple (XRP), Solana (SOL), and more, offering a diversified approach beyond traditional assets. One of the most compelling benefits of a Crypto IRA is its inherent tax advantages. Whether in a traditional or Roth IRA, your crypto gains enjoy a tax-advantaged status, either being tax-deferred or tax-free. In addition, unlike traditional markets with limited hours, you can buy and sell digital assets around the clock, 24/7.
• 24/7 Market Access: Unlike traditional investing accounts tied to limited market hours, iTrustCapital’s platform provides 24/7 access to buy and sell over 80 cryptocurrencies and precious metals.
• Award-Winning U.S.-Based Live Customer Support: In an industry dominated by AI bots, automated responses, and offshore service centers, iTrustCapital stands out with an award-winning, U.S.-based live support team. Their representatives are available to answer client questions directly, a level of service that is rare in the industry.

Custody & Security

iTrustCapital uses third-party Institutional Storage Providers and Qualified Custodians. Clients’ USD is held by third-party U.S.-based custodians, and their crypto assets are secured by third-party Institutional Storage Providers within a fully secure, audited, and regularly stress-tested institutional environment utilizing Cold Storage, Multi-Party Computation (MPC), and Hardware Security Modules (HSM).

Their secure closed-loop system mitigates the risk of funds being drained from a compromised account. Even if a client's login is compromised, the client's crypto stays protected. No external wallet transfers. No backdoors. No loopholes. Just secure, controlled custody you can trust.
