    I'm delighted to share that my experience was truly positive

    I'm delighted to share that my experience was truly positive. I had initial reservations about transferring funds, fearing complications, but everything unfolded rather smoothly. When I made an error, the Capitalize team swiftly resolved the issue upon being informed. Their follow-up check-ins and prompt responses were greatly appreciated. While my preference was to have phone communication initially, reaching out via email led to quick and efficient responses, which shifted my perspective positively. Overall, Capitalize's service left me content and assured.

    I had been planning to rollover some accounts

    I had been planning to rollover some accounts for a long time but was always anxious about messing it up and getting a distribution by mistake. Capitalize made everything straightforward, letting me stay in control while offering support throughout. Capitalize provided clear instructions for submitting my info and was very responsive before, during, and after the process. I was grateful for the frequent updates and either direct calls or customized emails once a step was done. Definitely suggest to get rollovers sorted out with ease!

    My previous employer or their 401(k) administration service

    My previous employer or their 401(k) administration service (not sure which) worked with Capitalize to help ex-employees manage their 401(k). I had already begun a rollover when Capitalize reached out, but they set up a 3-way call with the receiving company and made everything go much smoother. Kasen Quiring was the Capitalize rep, and he stayed professional and capable all the way through. They managed to complete a trustee-to-trustee electronic transfer that saved me about a week (no need to send checks back and forth).

    I worked with several diferent representatives

    I worked with several diferent representatives at Capitalize and they guided a really complicated old 401K to IRA move from Fidelity to Robinhood. Everyone I talked with was prompt and professional on all mediums - phone, chat, and email. I never felt that I was left hanging. On the other hand, Fidelity makes it hard to move funds out, so it was invaluable to have the support from Capitalize operations agents. It's so rare these days to have real, human help and it's a huge relief when moving retirement funds.

    The team at Capitalize was quick to respond, called me as promised, and explained the process very well. Honestly, the whole experience was way easier than I thought it would be. Some things that really stood out: The Capitalize agent was super helpful during our call with Fidelity. She asked all the right questions and made sure everything was understood. The envelope for sending my check to my new financial company got to my house fast and had clear instructions that were really easy to follow.

    Capitalize made rolling over my 401(k) easy! The platform was simple to use and had clear directions that helped me all the way through. The best part was the open communication, which kept me updated all along. My agent, Ian, was great. His skill and commitment made everything go well. He answered all my questions and made sure the process went smoothly. In short, Capitalize's easy-to-use platform, clear communication, and great service from Ian make them a top pick. Definitely recommend!

    Capitalize made the process of transferring multiple 401ks easy. They provided excellent service from start to finish. Guided me through each step on a video call, addressed all my questions, took care of the details by contacting one of my old 401k providers to ensure a smooth transfer, and followed up to make sure everything was done properly. One of the better customer service experiences I've had in a long time.

    The company made everything so simple and much easier than if I had tried to handle my rollover alone. I put my rollover off for quite a while because I thought the process would be a headache, but Travia was so helpful that I wish I had done it sooner! She gave me easy to understand explanations for each step of the process and even helped me to make sure I was moving my money to the right type of account.

    Capitalize diligently facilitated the release of my 401-K funds from my previous company and guided the seamless rollover to an IRA. Their consistent support during this process left me content. I'd consider their services again and genuinely recommend them. No compensation for this review; it's an authentic reflection of my experience. Special thanks to Dan H. for his assistance.

    The company made everything so simple. They knew exactly what to do to get the info I needed, assisted with the call to the other company, and made sure all was ready before ending the call. It took around 30 minutes because of the account call, but then it was finished quickly and I was surprised at how straightforward it was! Thanks for making this process smooth and easy!

    Ian P. did a great job helping me with my 403(b) rollover. He was very informed, went over the process in detail before linking up with my old retirement account, and was excellent at following up to make sure everything was in order. His skill and method made this task so smooth to handle! I strongly suggest this service if you need to combine old retirement accounts.

    Capitalize made it easy!

    Our 401k plan at our company was terminated after we were sold and we needed to roll our 401k and Roth 401k dollars over. The rep was on the call with the 401k plan provider and actually made the rollover process simple and smooth. The money was in my IRA and Roth IRA within a few days. I really appreciate the time and effort they put in to get it done.

    I've literally been putting off doing my rollover for years, but with Capitalize it was truly easy. They called me once they had my old 401k provider on the line, and then walked through the process with me to get my funds rolled over. Couldn't be more satisfied with the excelent product and service from Capitalize!

About Hicapitalize.com

Capitalize is revolutionizing the retirement savings landscape to match the evolving work dynamics. They address the challenges faced by millions who switch jobs each year, leaving behind 401(k) plans, and those at current employers struggling to comprehend fees and investments. With a blend of innovative technology and a compassionate team, Capitalize simplifies the process of locating, consolidating, and optimizing retirement savings for Americans. Their platform enables individuals to gain better control over their financial future, ensuring they don't miss out on significant retirement benefits. Capitalize is dedicated to enhancing retirement savings strategies, making them more accessible and efficient.

Key Details:

  • Location: The company is headquartered in New York, United States.
  • Founders: Hicapitalize.com was founded by Gaurav Sharma, Chris Phillips.
  • Foundation Date: The company was established in the year 2019.

Launched in 2019 by Gaurav Sharma and Chris Phillips, Hicapitalize.com began its journey to guarantee that every American can retire with enough money. It is a fintech company that is venture-backed with headquarters in New York. Its area of specialization is making the process of rolling over 401(k) into an IRA less complex.

The site functions as the middleman. Hence, it assists users in transferring abandoned 401(k) accounts from former employers to new IRA accounts, working with well-known investing platforms such as Vanguard, SoFi, and Betterment to help with these rollovers. The way it operates is also distinct, as it provides these services without any fee. Let’s start this Hicapitalize review to uncover more crucial details.

Company History

The story of Hicapitalize.com started with the cooperation between Gaurav Sharma and Chris Phillips, whose finance and technology knowledge formed a company devoted to changing the retirement savings market. Sharma, a veteran of investing at high-profile firms like Greenlight Capital and Highbridge Capital Management, and Phillips, a seasoned executive in the technological divisions and technical strategy development, envisioned a platform that would make retirement saving convenient and effective.

What is Hicapitalize? Since its inception, Hicapitalize.com has focused on addressing many Americans' challenges: transitioning through different employment situations and tracking and managing 401(k) accounts. Research conducted by the company in 2021 unraveled the issue, finding an estimated 24.3 million forgotten 401(k)s, which might lead to a serious problem of retirement savings that could affect individuals.

The company began with basic, clear services designed to find all old 401(k) accounts and then rolled them into IRAs. Over time, the website extended its offerings to include educational products, access to financial experts for consultation, and a full range of comparisons of IRA options based on fees, investment options, and usability.

Is Hicapitalize legit? Sure! The company's main milestones include creating proprietary technology, simplifying the rollover process, establishing relationships with the leading financial institutions for a wide range of IRA solutions, and getting recognition for its groundbreaking approach to retirement savings.

Products and Services

Capitalize stands out among financial technology companies by providing a niche, hassle-free service that streamlines the IRA rollover process for individuals with old 401(k) plans from previous employers. While Capitalize is not a traditional financial service provider, it does not offer its customers brokerage accounts or direct market access. On the contrary, it works as an intermediary, aiding the rollover of 401(k) assets from either old or forgotten accounts to IRAs through networks of partnerships with the most popular investment platforms such as Vanguard, SoFi, and Betterment.

Is Hicapitalize reliable? Yes. The unique selling point of Capitalize is its promise to deliver free service, which involves both the rollover process and consultations with financial advisers. With this approach, you can be certain that the advice given is impartial and free of additional costs, making it a superior option for those pursuing the best ways to maximize their retirement savings.

You will hardly find negative or mixed Hicapitalize reviews and complaints. Moreover, Capitalize builds on the services provided by expanding educational content on retirement savings management and the necessity of rolling over the old 401(k) plans. Also, the platform motivates users with a referral program that gives a reward, which is physical, to the ones who help expand its user base.

Getting Started with Hicapitalize

The 401(k) rollover process with Hicapitalize is designed to be convenient and smooth for the new clients by making it simple to move the retirement funds. This is the step-by-step guide to start this smooth and uncomplicated journey that everyone can use, and that will ensure that every client finds their investment pathway simple and pleasant.

Step 1: Locating 401(k)

Is Hicapitalize a scam? Of course not! The initial stage of the process is to locate where your current 401(k) plan is at. If you know the name of the 401(k) institution you are invested with, you can contact us at Hicapitalize. If that's not the case, then there's no reason to panic. You need to mention the company name, and Hicapitalize will automatically search its database, which is the largest and most in-depth, to find your 401(k) for you.

Step 2: Picking an Account

The next step you need to take once you locate your 401(k) is to choose an appropriate rollover IRA. Hicapitalize streamlines this process with questions that help to understand your investing style, financial objectives, and how your IRA fits in with the rest of your financial plan. The next step is to display a list of custom-made IRA options for you, including their fees, investment choices, and other important features to help you make an informed decision.

Step 3: The Part Where Hicapitalize Comes Into Play

With the account selection made, Hicapitalize releases the heavier part of the work. The platform initiates the transition by contacting your previous 401(k) provider and takes care of all administrative tasks required for a seamless transition. Throughout this period, Hicapitalize remains in contact with you, continues to inform you about the status of your rollover, and instructs you in case of any concerns.

First, Hicapitalize requires new clients to go through the registration process that entails providing basic personal data, details regarding their employment history (such as companies they have had 401(k) accounts with), and their investment objectives. As for the required documents, you should have identification verification, for example, an official ID and possibly other documents related to your current 401(k) plan to make the transition run smoothly. Besides, almost all Hicapitalize reviews are positive!

When choosing a client during the account selection phase, Hicapitalize provides guidance on various investment strategies suitable to the different IRA options the client is presented with. This dialog is useful to ensure that the IRA you choose will match your long-term financial goals and investment preferences. When you have selected an IRA, Hicapitalize will help you with the online account setup. Is Hicapitalize safe? Sure! Hicapitalize's support also involves the organization of transferring your 401(k) assets to your existing or new IRA without any problems.

Conclusion

Hicapitalize.com is now one of the leading fintech firms, and it is especially evident in the area of retirement savings. Instead of the traditional approach of seeking help, its unique approach, which focuses on one-click 401(k) rollovers into IRAs, fills a vital gap and puts the power back into the hands of ‌individuals to control their retirement future.
