A Global Standard, Now in Your Hands
Precious metals storage has traditionally been static — buy once, store once, then leave it. But markets evolve, jurisdictions shift, and personal strategies change. Eona gives you the ability to move your allocated gold between world-class vaults in Zurich, Dubai, and Singapore — instantly, securely, and without third-party approval.
This flexibility is rare. Even high-net-worth investors often face delays, red tape, or hidden fees when attempting to relocate physical holdings. At Eona, it's built into the platform.
How It Works
1. You Initiate the Transfer
From your dashboard, you select the grams or bars you want to move and choose the new vault location. You’ll see any applicable transfer fees before confirming the move — no surprises.
2. Eona Handles the Logistics
Behind the scenes, Eona coordinates directly with our vaulting partner, Loomis, to execute the transfer. The gold remains fully allocated throughout the process — meaning you don’t lose legal ownership at any point.
Transfers are internal movements within the Loomis global network. Your gold is never exposed to transport risk, and there's no sell-rebuy scenario that could create taxable events or price slippage.
3. Real-Time Updates and Audit Trail
Once the transfer is complete (typically within 24–72 hours), your new vault location is reflected in your dashboard, along with a timestamp and audit trail for full traceability. Independent verification is part of every handover.
Why Move Gold Between Vaults?
Geopolitical Diversification
Physical diversification can act as a safeguard against political risk or capital controls in a given region. With Eona, you're not locked into one jurisdiction.
Strategic Allocation
You may want to store gold closer to other assets, align with future plans (e.g. residence or business location), or respond to market conditions — such as rising demand in specific regions.
Institutional Use-Cases
Family offices or corporates might shift gold between vaults to match balance sheet jurisdictions or regulatory environments. With Eona, this can be done efficiently without leaving the platform.
Fees and Considerations
Vault-to-vault transfers incur a small handling fee, typically in line with institutional rates. These fees cover the internal movements within the secured vaulting ecosystem and include insurance.
Importantly, there are no taxes or customs involved, as the gold does not cross consumer borders — it remains within Loomis’ bonded facilities at all times.
Built for Mobility and Control
Most platforms simply aren’t designed to support real-time vault switching — especially for individual investors. Eona removes this limitation. You stay in control of your storage geography without intermediaries or friction.
Whether you're hedging jurisdictional risk, planning a future withdrawal, or simply optimizing your portfolio — your gold moves with you.
