Introduction

You can make more informed decisions and streamline workflows by accessing data directly from Fidelity within Tamarac.

With this integration, you can:

Enrollment

To request the Fidelity Wealthscape Integration, initiate a Service Request through the Fidelity Service Center.

Once you've completed the request and the integration has been activated, Fidelity will reach out to Tamarac to enable the integration for all products.

Use Start New Forms for Digital Account Opening

Important

To start a new form for a client, they must be assigned to a Household with a valid address.

Filling out custodian forms is time-consuming, and it's easy to make mistakes that are difficult to fix. In order to improve accuracy of custodian form completion and streamline your processes, you can send client and Household information directly from Tamarac to Fidelity.

For requirements, steps, and more information about opening new accounts through Tamarac, see Start New Custodian Forms with Digital Account Opening.

If you're having trouble getting this feature to work, see Start New Forms Troubleshooting.

See Custodian Values on the Accounts Page

If your firm is activated for Fidelity integration, you can see Fidelity data directly on the Accounts page in the Custodian... columns.
