Security and Transparency

The 3 Bar9 Guarantees

For Bar9 to usher in a new era of saving in hard assets instead of fiat money we must start with radical transparency and utilise the best in hard asset security standards. Below we outline the three guarantees we offer our clients.

Bar9 clients benefit from the pioneering work Vaultoro group has done on transparency protocols in the blockchain space as well as the strong partnerships we have solidified with the largest companies in the precious metals industry.

Guarantee No. 1

Highest Quality

As a customer of Bar9 GmbH you can be sure that you will always trade only precious metals of the worldwide highest quality level “good delivery”. This means that Bar9 only trades bars from manufacturers that are LBMA-certified (e.g. Argor, Valcambi, Perth Mint and others) – the decisive factor for the highest possible quality.

Furthermore, the entire precious metal stock is fully insured. Among its partners, Bar9 relies exclusively on renowned companies with an excellent history:

pro aurum Switzerland

Founded in 2003, pro aurum today is the leading competence center for precious metal in the DACH-area.  Bar9 trades all metals with pro aurum and the pro aurum Switzerland AG manages the vauling facility (Embraport near Zurich) Bar9 uses for it´s customers.

Guarantee No. 2 - Secure Storage in Switzerland

Bar9 does not trade your precious metals, does not lend them and does not speculate: your precious metals, as your property, are always 100% stored in the Embraport vault. The Embraport Zurich (see map below) is one of the most reliable storage facilities in Switzerland. The precious metal storage facilities at Embraport meet the highest security requirements there are.

Unique Flexibility

Bank working hours are a thing of the past! At Bar9 you have access to your precious metals around the clock, 365 days a year. In addition, our customer service is available to you by e-mail, chat and also by telephone during German working hours.

Your gold is not “fixed”: With Bar9 you can sell fractions of gold. So, for example, if you need € 224.54 to pay a car payment, you can sell gold worth exactly    € 224.54 and have it transferred to your bank account. Save in real assets, but still be able to draw on these real values whenever you want!

In addition, Bar9 offers you the possibility to have your gold sent to your home address. Larger quantities of gold can also be collected directly from the Bar9 warehouse in Switzerland.
