Rocket Dollar

Operated by Rocket Dollar, Inc. (Delaware, organized 2018-02-16; co-founders Henry Yoshida, CEO, Thomas Young and Richard Dude). Acquired 2024-03-18 by WAO Fintech, LLC (dba Retired.com, Las Vegas), per Rocket Dollar Capital, LLC's audited statements. Affiliates per Rocket Dollar's privacy notice (2025-02-11): WAO Fintech, Digital Trust, LLC (custodian), Alternative IRA Services, LLC dba BitcoinIRA, Rocket Dollar Capital, LLC (broker-dealer, CRD 314075), Rocket Dollar Advisor, Inc., WAO Advisory, LLC, My Retirement Account Services, LLC.

Rocket Dollar sells self-directed IRA and Solo 401(k) accounts for a setup fee and a monthly subscription, so savers can put retirement money into real estate, private funds, startups, notes, crypto and other assets they choose themselves. It is the account administrator, not the custodian: Digital Trust, LLC holds the IRAs, partner banks hold checkbook cash, and the customer picks, executes, values and keeps compliant every investment. Since March 2024 Rocket Dollar and Digital Trust have been under common ownership, a fact disclosed in Rocket Dollar's privacy notice and its broker-dealer's audited filings but not highlighted on the pages where customers choose a plan.
