Choosing a service is a personal decision. Everyone has different financial goals, retirement target dates, comfort levels when it comes to risk, etc. Some services have a more aggressive trading approach than others. Some are more active than others meaning they will make more interfund transfers. Some will move all of their money into one fund or the other, while others spread their money a little more.
If you are unsure, you might want to check out the service descriptions on www.tsptalk.com/premiums.html and pick one that appeals to you.
It might be wise to choose a month to month subscription before committing to an
annual subscription. Then, once you find one you like, you can take advantage of the annual subscription discounts.
Just contact us to let us know
you want to switch.
We accept payments via credit cards and PayPal.
We will also accept checks in some circumstances, for pre-paid annual subscriptions. Please contact us if you choose this option.
- Some people don’t seem to notice the credit card payment option but it is actually below the PayPal option, and you may have to scroll down to see it.
- If you paid by credit card and you are getting a message that your username or password is incorrect, it’s possible your credit card was declined for one reason or another. You may have entered your number incorrectly, etc.
The monthly subscriptions do renew automatically, until you cancel.
Annual subscriptions do not renew automatically. We will send out an email when your subscriptions is nearing expiration.
If you reached this step, I will assume that you have already created an account. If that is the case, it could be a number of things.
Here are a couple of reasons / solutions if you are having trouble getting started.
- If you believe you signed up correctly and can’t login, or you have been logged in before and now you can’t seem to get in (perhaps you are seeing a refreshing login page), try this:

First thing for PayPal subscribers: It is important that your username / email
address login to the Premium Services area matches your PayPal email address,
otherwise when PayPal sends us a payment, our system can not match the payment
to an account.
- If paying by PayPal, we are still seeing some members not completing the transaction. After you pay using PayPal… On the final page of the PayPal process, please click the "Return to Vendor Website" button. This will complete the transaction and ensure proper payment credit.
- It could also be because you used the "back" button before the process was complete.
- If you received a confirmation from PayPal that your Payment was made but you still can’t login, email us, as we’ll have to manually update your account. Please include your PayPal email address.
Here's what to do if you paid but don't have access:
Send an
send an email to us
(use the support at tsptalk. com).
- I need to know the login name you used (usually an email address)
- Tell me which service you tried to sign up for
- Was it for a monthly or annual service
- Tell me if you used the PayPal or credit card option
- If you used a credit card, give me the last name on that card (do not send us your card number)

Just because you have signed up for a Premium Service, does not automatically
mean you are on the email alert list. The email alerts are opt in so you
have to sign up for them separately.
Please go to www.tsptalk.com/email_alerts.html and enter your email address in the form. It will ask you which list you would like to be on. Choose any and all services you wish.
The email alerts are free, but they don't contain any premium service information. They will just alert you that.
