    Capitalize made it SO easy to transfer

    Capitalize made it SO easy to transfer my four 401ks and 403bs from 2013, even though a few were complex. I was amazed it was a free service. The support team was great too.

    Although the representative I spoke

    Although the representative I spoke with was friendly, waiting for months for this appointment ended up being pointless since they couldn't assist me in transferring funds from a rollover IRA (from my old employer's 401k) to my current employer's 401k. I opted for Capitalize to simplify the process, but it turned out to be a complete waist of my time.

    I tried this company to help with my 401k rollover. I sent my check to the new bank through them. Someone cashed the check, but no one knows who. Neither bank can find it. Capitalize hasn't replied to my emails or tried to solve this. My savings might be gone. Don't use this company; they might be a scam.

    My rollover remains incomplete

    My rollover remains incomplete, the second time it's vanished in transit. Capitalize's communication is consistently lacking. Automated emails go unanswered, leaving me frustrated. The process, ongoing for months, prompts regret for not choosing a more respectful financial advisor instead.

    Hicapitalize web site provides false facts and give the impression that it found your 401K from the company that you think you have it and it turns out to be not true. I don’t recommend using this service.

    I had this retirement savings

    I had this retirement savings mess from a few old jobs, like, four different accounts. It felt like a mountain I just couldn't climb, especially since I kept forgetting how to get into each account. Honestly, it was this annoying task sitting on my to-do list for over a year, staring me down. Trying to do it myself felt like navigating a maze, plus I was worried about losing tax protections if I messed up. And don't get me started on all the paperwork, printing forms, mailing checks—it was a nightmare. Then I found Capitalize, and they made everything so easy and quick. It was like a weight lifted off my shoulders. I'd totally tell anyone dealing with a similar headache to check them out.

    I was seriously dreading the whole 401(k) rollover thing. I had four accounts, split between two firms, and each one needed a check manually cut and sent out. I procrastinated for a year because it seemed like a nightmare. But then, my new custodian offered a rollover promotion through Capitalize, and wow, they made it super simple. I just handed over my account info, and they took care of scheduling calls with everyone involved. They even looped me in for approvals. Before I knew it, the checks were sent, and Capitalize provided pre-addressed envelopes with postage paid. The checks were with me for like three minutes, tops. It was a breeze. Highly recommend them.

    I had the chance

    I had the chance to work with Jake Schlais, and let me tell you, it was a real smooth experience. Jake's got this way of making things straightforward and easy to understand. He was always polite and totally knew what he was doing, keeping me updated on everything without me having to ask. It was like he was one step ahead, making sure things were ticking along just right. If you're looking for someone who really gets the job done, Jake's your guy. The whole process felt seamless, and I left feeling pretty happy about it all. Can't say enough good things about the service, it's definitely worth checking out if you want things done right.

    Man, I had 401k accounts scattered all over the place and it was driving me nuts. Keeping track of all those logins and then having the assets moved around was just too much. I really needed to merge them but the thought was overwhelming. Enter Capitalize. These guys are lifesavers. They made the whole process so simple and quick, I couldn't believe it. The customer service was top-notch, always there to help and super fast. They handle all the tough stuff, so you don’t have to worry about a thing. Plus, as a SoFi client, I'm getting 1% on my rollover, which is a nice bonus. Huge thanks to Sophie B. for being so awesome and kind!

    I was totally confused about handling my 401k, like, where do I even start? Luckily, Jake and the team at Capitalize stepped in. They made everything so simple, I didn’t have to stress at all. It felt like they genuinely cared about helping me, not just ticking off another task. They guided me through each step, explaining things in a way that made sense, and I never felt alone in the process. I really appreciated having someone on my side, just focused on making things easier for me. It was a huge relief, and now I feel more confident about my financial stuff. If you're lost with your 401k, definitely reach out to them!

    I was dealing with my old 401(k) and Capitalize stepped in to help out. I was already rolling it over, but they got things moving faster. They set up a call with the new firm handling my money, and it made everything smooth. Kasen Quiring from Capitalize was super helpful and really knew his stuff. They managed to do an electronic transfer directly between trustees, which saved me about a week since there was no need to send checks back and forth. It's nice to have someone take care of the nitty-gritty details and make the whole process less of a hassle. Overall, it was a solid experience, and I'm glad they reached out.

    I transferred some funds

    I transferred some funds and was pleasantly surprised by how hassle-free the whole experience was. The process was straightforward and didn’t take long at all. While I waited for the paper checks to go through, no one bothered me with constant updates or unnecessary questions. Once everything was finalized, they just confirmed if the transfer was complete and that was it. No annoying calls or spam emails, just efficient service. It’s refreshing to see a company that focuses on getting things done without all the extra nonsense. Makes you wish more businesses operated like this, keeping things simple and efficient.

    I recently had the pleasure of working with Tom O’Neill to transfer my old 401K to a new IRA, and it was a breeze! Tom was amazing, taking care of all the complicated stuff, which was a huge relief for me. I just got married, so my last name changed, and he handled that effortlessly too. Tom really knows his stuff and made the whole process simple. I didn't have to stress about paperwork or anything; he guided me through everything smoothly. I’m really grateful for his support and Capitalize for having such awesome service. If you need help with retirement accounts, I’d definitely recommend reaching out to them.

    When I needed to roll

    When I needed to roll over my Roth and traditional retirement accounts from an old job, I went with Capitalize and it was a game changer. I’d tried before and always got stuck with all the confusing info from my old firm, and I’m an accountant, so that's saying something! Capitalize made everything clear and simple, guiding me on what accounts I needed to set up and walking me through the entire rollover process. It was a huge relief to finally get it done without all the headaches. Big thanks to Capitalize for making it so straightforward and stress-free. Highly recommend them if you’re in the same boat!

    I gotta say, working with Capitalize was a game-changer for me. A finance group at my new job recommended them, and I finally decided to roll over my old retirement accounts. Honestly, I was pretty nervous about messing it up or facing tax issues, but they made it so simple. We went through everything step-by-step on the phone and Zoom. I even had a tricky question about one account that I couldn’t find an answer for anywhere online. They nailed it with just one email. Now, all my accounts are in one place, and I feel way more confident about my financial future and retirement goals. Thanks, 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.
