Funding an Account

There are no minimums or maximums on UPMA accounts. There are several ways to fund a UPMA™ account. Members may use the online 'Deposit' feature to initiate deposit requests via card, check, or wire transfer. Card deposits are an excellent option for new members sending limited funds as one-time contributions. Applicable credit card fees apply. Standard Credit Card rates of 3.5% are automatically applied to the pricing on Alpinegold.com and are subject to change.

Depending on the method of deposit, funds may need to clear before they are fully available in your UPMA account. Wire transfers typically take 24 hours to clear, checks may require a 10-day waiting period, and ACH deposits may take up to 60 business days to clear.

Additional funding options: There are other funding options available, such as using bill pay with your financial institution or sending a cashier's check, personal check, or money order to the mailing address provided for Alpine Gold. Each method has its own instructions and requirements.

If a member would like to send more than $1,000 within a one-month period may send a cashier's check, personal check or money order to the mailing address maintained for Alpine Gold™. Please make all checks payable to --Legal Tender Services PLLC--.

The most secure way of sending funds in any amount is through a wire transfer. Wire instructions are automatically emailed to you after submitting a “wire/check” deposit into your account. You can also call 888.210.8488 or email [email protected] for wire instructions.
