Automatically collect client details and complete Schwab Advisor Center digital onboarding workflows

Zocks gathers client information from meetings, emails, and connected CRM and planning systems, then populates fields in Schwab Advisor Center’s digital onboarding workflow. Use the Client Intake template to cover everything you need in the first meeting, so you're not chasing clients for missing details later.

field review

Catch errors before Schwab sends them back

Zocks flags missing or conflicting fields, then checks the full application against Schwab's requirements before it's sent. You fix issues before your client signs, so fewer applications come back NIGO.

tracking

Track every envelope until it’s signed

See where every account application stands in Zocks, from submitted to signed. Clients still electronically authorize using their secure Schwab Alliance™ credentials.

Zocks pulls balances, positions, cost basis, and gains from Schwab into your meeting prep, next to past conversations and data from your connected systems. Everything for the review is on one page.

FAQs

How does the Zocks and Schwab integration work?

It works in two directions. Zocks uses what it already knows about your client to complete and validate new Schwab account onboarding workflows. It also brings each client's current Schwab account data into Zocks, so you can use it in meeting prep, emails, forms, and any question you ask about their portfolio.

What data does Zocks use to fill out the Schwab application?

Zocks uses what was discussed in your client meetings, plus data from connected systems like your CRM, financial planning tools, and email.

How is this different from opening an account directly in Schwab?

Schwab digital onboarding is where the account opens. Zocks handles the work that comes before it: capturing what your client tells you, filling out the application, and checking it against Schwab's requirements. It then sends you and the application directly to Schwab Advisor Center, where you resume your usual Schwab process.

Does Zocks submit anything without my approval?

No. You review every application before submission.

Which account types are supported?

Schwab One® brokerage accounts (individual, joint, tenants in common, community property, tenants by the entirety, designated beneficiary, living trust, and custodial) and IRAs (traditional, Roth, rollover, and inherited). SEP and SIMPLE IRAs are coming. You can open accounts for new clients and add accounts for existing ones.

Is my clients' Schwab data secure?
Yes. You connect through a secure Schwab Advisor Center login, and Zocks only accesses the accounts you give it permission to see. Data is pulled on demand, and Zocks is SOC 2 Type 2 certified.
Which Zocks plans include the Schwab integration?

Schwab data in Meeting Prep and Ask Anything is available on all Zocks plans. Account opening is available on Zocks Ultimate. Connect your Schwab Advisor Center account in Zocks to get started.
