Traditional IRA:

Contributions may be tax-deductible for the current tax year. Earnings and tax-deductible contributions are taxed at the time you begin taking qualified withdrawals.

Roth IRA:

Contributions are made on an after-tax basis. Earnings on contributions are tax-free at the time you begin taking qualified withdrawals.

Rollover IRA:

Contributions in a Rollover IRA originate in an employer-sponsored retirement plan, such as a 401(k). They are distributed out of the employer plan and into a Rollover IRA when you leave the company or retire. Earnings and contributions remain tax-deferred and are taxed at the time you begin taking qualified withdrawals.
