Our Verdict
This offer is for an IRA transfers, and the tiers are mostly better than on the e*Trade brokerage transfer offer. Overall this is a solid offer and well worth considering for someone with a large IRA account balance. This should work for either a traditional IRA or Roth IRA (but seemingly not for a combination of the two).
We’ll add this to our List of Best Brokerage Bonuses.
