The Ocho Solo 401k gives business owners the biggest tax advantages of any retirement plan. Contribute up to $66,000 and invest in any asset class through your solo 401(k) plan with tax-free compounding. We meticulously crafted Ocho to be the simplest, easiest solo 401k experience you’ll ever have.

Why You Need to use Ocho

An All-In-One Integrated Platform

Ocho is the easiest way to set up a solo 401k and start investing your money with tax-free compounding. You can open an account in under 10 minutes, and we take care of all paperwork and administration for you. No need to open separate brokerage accounts (unless you want to!) – it can all be done through your Ocho account.†

Unlock Tax-Advantaged Alternative Assets

Invest in traditional assets like stocks and ETFs through the app,† or take your Ocho Solo 401(k) plan to any third party custodian for full checkbook control to directly invest your money in alternative assets like real estate and crypto.

Pick and Choose Your Tax Savings Each Year

You get to decide whether you want to contribute with pre-tax dollars and get a tax deduction, or contribute into a Roth account for tax-free withdrawals in retirement. Deduct up to $66,000 from your taxable income, or put the whole amount into a Roth account. It’s entirely up to you.

The Biggest Roth Account Legally Possible

A mega backdoor Roth solo 401k lets you invest up to $66,000 entirely into a Roth account (10x more than a Roth IRA, and 3x more than what’s traditionally allowed with a 401k). A mega backdoor Roth is a complex procedure with many moving parts. With Ocho, we’re there for you every step of the way.

A Delightfully Easy Investing Experience

Create your account, make direct contributions, rollover assets, and invest your funds all in one place.† And if you need help, we’re here for full account administration assistance, plan support, and security & compliance monitoring.

What entrepreneurs say about using Ocho

Elizabeth Yin Co-founder @ Hustle Fund
“There are now so many people who are self-employed, and Ocho is building the perfect financial vehicle to help them turn their business income into generational wealth. As a team of entrepreneurs, Ocho understands the financial pain points of business owners on a deep level. The Ocho Solo 401k is a retirement plan so powerful and flexible that it feels like you’re getting access to a tax loophole.”

Nate O’Brien Investor & YouTuber
“The process of opening a solo 401k used to be extremely complex, and you had to do most of the administration work yourself. Ocho has built the modern version of the plan, adding in all the best features and offering full administration support. I don’t normally get excited about retirement plans, but Ocho is building something I’ve wanted to exist for a long time.”

All income levels and all business entities eligible

Any business owner, freelancer, creator, or even full-time employees with a side hustle can open a solo 401k. The only requirement is that you have no full-time W-2 employees that work over 1,000 hours in your business (excluding your spouse). There are no income limits – you’re eligible whether you make over $1M or operate a small side hustle.

Questions?

Am I eligible for a solo 401k?

To be eligible for a solo 401k, you need any sort of business or self-employment activity, with no full-time W-2 employees that work over 1,000 hours in your business (excluding your spouse). Business owners with any type of business entity can open a solo 401k, whether you operate as a sole proprietorship, partnership, LLC, s-corp, or c-corp. You can still work with freelancers and contractors, but you lose eligibility if you have full-time W-2 employees.
