At M1, you can open the following IRA accounts:
M1 Traditional IRA
A Traditional IRA is a tax-advantaged account designed to help save for retirement.
Contributions are generally made with after-tax money but can be tax-deductible if you meet income eligibility.
Any potential earnings grow tax-deferred and are not taxed until you withdraw them after age 59½.
Read more about Traditional IRAs on the IRS website.
M1 Roth IRA
A Roth IRA is a tax-advantaged savings account that provides federally tax-free growth and distributions once it has been open for five years and you are at least 59½ years of age.
Contributions are made with after-tax income.
Read more about Roth IRAs on the IRS website.
M1 SEP IRA
A Simplified employee pension (SEP) IRA is a retirement savings account for self-employed individuals or small business owners.
A SEP IRA has a higher contribution limit than a Traditional or Roth IRA. M1 currently only supports SEP IRAs for self-employed individuals.
