Setup Fee

Gold IRA Glossary

A one-time charge from the custodian to open a new self-directed IRA and process the initial paperwork. Some Gold IRA companies pay this fee on your behalf as a promotion, though the cost may be recovered elsewhere in their pricing. Setup fees are separate from the annual maintenance and storage fees that continue each year.
