Current does not currently support beneficiary designations, transfer-on-death registrations, or trust account titling on any account type. All Current accounts pass through the estate at death and may require probate.
When an account holder dies, the executor or administrator will need to contact Current with a death certificate and legal authority documents to claim account balances. The process and required documents are covered on the death claim page.
Current does not currently support beneficiary designations (POD or TOD) on any account type. All accounts transfer through the estate at death and may require probate.
Why trust accounts are not available
Current does not support retitling accounts into a trust, naming a trust as beneficiary, or any other probate-avoidance mechanism. Account balances transfer through the estate at death. Current is a fintech platform that does not support trust-titled accounts. Banking services are provided by partner banks Choice Financial Group, Member FDIC, and/or Cross River Bank, Member FDIC, but trust account opening and retitling must be done through an institution that supports trust accounts. Current accounts cannot be retitled to a trust.
