A provider portal built around your bank.

From the first application to the opened account, Crown gives providers answers they can act on. Your bank defines how much they can see.

Provider-led application preparation

Providers start applications on behalf of their customers, fill in permitted details, and add supporting paperwork before handoff. Give each new customer a head start on opening a self-directed retirement account.

A clear customer handoff

Customers complete any remaining information, review the application, verify their identity, and sign. Provider editing ends at handoff, keeping the customer’s review and required steps in their hands.

Application status without the follow-up

With access granted by your bank, providers can check each signer’s application, verification, and signature progress. They can answer customer questions and explain the next step without asking the bank for an update.

Approval under your bank’s rules

Approval can be 100% automatic after Crown’s extensive identity verification and OFAC checks. Your bank fully customizes the approval rules, including when an application needs review by your team.

Visibility after the account opens

Keep providers connected to their customers after onboarding. Your bank can grant access to account details and status, or include balances and transaction history with Full account access. Identity documents and internal compliance information stay restricted.

Provider tiers defined by your bank

A provider tier is a named set of access permissions assigned to a provider firm. Set application visibility and opened-account visibility independently, so each firm sees the information your bank permits.
