Page Title: BuyDirect® for TIPS
What you can do on this page:
This BuyDirect page lets you purchase TIPS for your account. You may buy $5 million of each security type/term in a single auction. All of your marketable securities are available at a glance in your secure, online account. The purchase form is divided into four sections.
Section #1: Registration Information -All securities in an entity account carry a registration identical to the entity account name.
Section #2: Purchase Information - Simply select the product type, enter a purchase amount in increments of $100, and choose the source of funds (a bank or Zero-Percent C of I) you wish to use to pay for your purchase.
Section #3: Purchase Frequency - You can make a one-time purchase, up to five years in advance, or set up repeat purchases using common frequencies (e.g., monthly, bimonthly), or your own specific dates.
Just type in the purchase date(s) yourself or use our handy calendar tool to do it for you. Click on the calendar icon, and then click on a date in the pop-up calendar. TreasuryDirect automatically assists you by finding the next available auction date based upon the date you enter. It's that easy!
Section #4: Payment Destination - Select the payment destination for your maturity and interest payments. You may choose a bank or Zero-Percent C of I from the drop-down box.
HELPFUL HINT: All purchase dates will be moved to the next available auction date according to current Treasury offerings.
