How to review 3 account types at eToro.

5-step process, 5 required documents, and contact information for survivors.
View details →No. eToro USA does not open trust accounts, so an existing account cannot be retitled into your revocable trust and a successor trustee cannot take it over. A trust can still receive the money after the fact — the executor settles the eToro account through the estate, the balance is paid to the estate, and the estate then distributes it under the will (including a pour-over into the trust). Nothing about the eToro account itself moves to the trust.
