    The brokerage stack, already built

    Corporate actions & dividends

    Alpaca processes corporate actions and dividend activity, with records surfaced through account activities so you can display and reconcile them.

    Daily processing & reconciliation

    We handle core brokerage processes such as beginning-of-day sync, trade reporting, end-of-day calculations, cost basis, and margin calculations.

    Tax reporting & statements

    Reports are generated as part of Alpaca’s full brokerage infrastructure. Add your own branding to trade confirmations, portfolio history, customer statements and more.

    Trading & settlement

    Alpaca owns both trading and clearing/settlement infrastructure in-house, so there’s no third-party clearing firm between you and the market.

    Funding infrastructure

    Support multiple funding models, including instant funding, pooled accounts and post-trade settlement. Customers can fund via Plaid, ACH transfers, or SWIFT.

    Account onboarding & KYC

    Offer customers a seamless, near instant account opening experience for Individual brokerage, Custodial, RIA, Traditional and Roth IRAs, and Entity accounts. Non-registered technology partners can leverage Alpaca’s KYC as a service to get to market faster.

    Account models for every stage

    New or unlicensed firms start with fully disclosed. Licensed broker-dealers can choose fully disclosed, omnibus, or Alpaca’s OmniSub technology—and migrate between them as the business evolves.

    • Composer

      Before Alpaca, integrating with a broker would have required a significantly higher amount of dev resources and time. Alpaca’s technology has significantly reduced how cumbersome of a process it is.

      Working with Alpaca allows us to tokenize US stocks and ETFs with the speed, accessibility, and programmability of blockchain for these global investors.

    • ZAD

      There are service providers that tell you, this is what we have, take it or leave it. Not Alpaca. They listen. They understand our region. They’re helping us offer the best possible products to our clients.
