The first year only, there is also a $500 one-time plan setup and software customization fee. This fee does not vary with plan size.


The MDB401k setup fee is a one-time charge.

One of the great things about MDB401k is its adaptability. Our IRS-approved prototype 401k plan includes a host of customization chioces (see below) and our 401k plan administration software includes additional customizeable administrative features.

-- Our 401k experts can help you understand your MDB401k plan and 401k plan administration options, so you can make educated decisions as to which are most desireable for your company and its 401k plan.

-- Our technical experts code your 401k software with your customization decisions, empowering the software to streamline your plan's 401k administration and automate many of its functions.

Customization items include…

-- Age, length of service, and other 401k plan participation requirements

-- Automatic 401k enrollment options

-- Employer matching, profit-sharing and/or qualified nonelective contribution rates, if any

-- 401k vesting schedules for any employer contributions

-- 401k loan availability

-- 401k discrimination testing/401k compliance testing options, including options associated with running your 401k plan as a safe harbor 401k plan, if you so choose

See our 401k Order Form for the options currently available under each of these 401k customization items, or go to our Plan Options page to view a chart listing the 401k options currently allowed by the IRS and the options we typically recommend for most MDB401k small business 401k plans.

Additional Changes
You don't ever have to feel locked in to your 401k plan customization decisions with MDB401k. For instance, some companies choose to exclude 401k loans in the early years of their plan, then add the option in at a later date.

-- We can modify your 401k plan and 401k plan administration software for you at any time. However, we reserve the right to charge for changes initiated by you that require us to recustomize your 401k software and/or official 401k documents. The maximum charge for recustomization work is $300.


With MDB401k you save an average of 60% to 80% — every year!

According to HR Investment Consultants in Towson, MD, publisher of the "401k Provider Directory, "the cost of running a 401k plan with 25 participants and $750,000 in assets can range from as little as $6,750 per year to as much as $20,000, depending on which 401k vendor you select. (Sources: Nation's Business, September 1998, Myers, Randy "Your 401k Plan May Cost You Too Much." Business Week Online, July 2000, Brenner, Lynn "A Wealth of Choices.")

-- A MDB401k 25-participant plan costs only $995/yr (plus the first-year-only, one-time setup fee of $500)

-- The national average for a 25-participant plan is a whopping $6,750/yr to $20,000/yr — plus plan setup fee and minus the flexible 401k options that are all free with MDB401k plans!

MDB401k pricing versus that for bundled 401k plans and 401k plan administration services.

We compared the cost of a complete, fully-customized MDB401k system with the cost of bundled 401k plans offered by a broad cross-section of major national vendors that allow for self-directed discount brokerage accounts.

-- It's not a perfect comparison, of course: Their 401k plans include off-site 401k administration, ours include Mydiscountbroker.com investments, superior plan flexibility, superior asset security, monthly (not quarterly, or worse yet, annual) employee statements, monthly (not semi-annual or annual) compliance testing (and with results in seconds), IRS 401k reporting help, a 60-day money-back guarantee….

-- We found that MDB401k clients save an average of 60% to 80% a year off the lowest priced national vendor's bunded 401k plan. That's a savings of 60% to 80% for perhaps 15 mintues of easy work a month…


Everything is included with MDB401k.

MDB401k includes EVERYTHING you need to provide your company with a great 401k plan right from your basic PC computer in about 10 to 15 minutes a month (for most small business 401k plans).
