EquityZen allows Rocket Dollar members to access pre-IPO stocks using EquityZen's online trading marketplace.
Before creating an account with EquityZen, you will first need to create a Rocket Dollar account at RocketDollar.com.
Please note that the time required to fund your Rocket Dollar IRA depends on your transferring custodian's processing time and can take anywhere from two to ten business days. We recommend calling your previous custodian after you receive notification from Rocket Dollar support that your request has been submitted to confirm your transfer is in process and complete any additional steps the previous custodian requires. If possible, request an expedited turnaround time on your transfer.
In the meantime, you can commit to your investment on EquityZen by following the steps below:

After setting up an account you will be prompted to verify that you are an accredited investor. You can find additional information on accredited investors on the SEC's website.
After confirming your investor accreditation, you will then be asked to complete a suitability questionnaire. This is a necessary step in the process, the questionnaire will determine your risk tolerance as it applies to the investments available on the EquityZen platform.
