About Kara
The app to invest in physical gold from €10
Our mission
Kara revolutionises access to physical gold by making it accessible from just 10€ to everyone, without complexity or barriers. We believe everyone should be able to protect their savings with a tangible and recognised asset, regardless of their income level or financial knowledge.
Our goal is to democratise investment in physical gold by offering a simple, secure and digital experience, designed for the modern generation.
Our partner: Godot & Fils
Kara is a subsidiary of Godot & Fils, a leading French firm in the gold market since 1933. This strategic alliance allows us to benefit from nearly a century of expertise, compliance and transparency in the gold industry.
Thanks to this historic partnership, we guarantee our users the same quality of service and the same rigour that has built the reputation of Godot & Fils in the French gold market.
Security and storage
Your gold is physically stored in Switzerland, in a secure Helveticor vault in Zurich. This storage benefits from the highest level of security: 24/7 surveillance, restricted access zones and regular audits.
All the gold is fully insured against theft, loss and damage by Godot & Fils' partner insurers. This insurance covers 100% of the value of the stored gold.
The gold you hold on Kara is physical gold of 999.9‰ purity (24 carats), stored in the form of 1 g gold coins each to facilitate your transactions.
A modern digital experience
Kara offers a mobile-first application that allows you to manage your gold with ease:
- Buy physical gold from just 10€ with bank card, Apple Pay or Google Pay
- Sell your gold instantly, with funds available within 24 hours
- Store your gold securely and track your portfolio in real time
- Transfer gold to your loved ones in seconds
- Schedule automatic purchases to grow your savings
- Receive your physical gold coins (minimum 5 g) at a Godot & Fils branch
All these actions are possible in just a few clicks, with an intuitive interface and real-time tracking of your transactions.
Transparency and trust
At Kara, transparency is at the heart of our approach. At any time, you can:
- Download a purchase or holding certificate for each transaction
- See in real time what you hold, how much it is worth, and what you can do
- Benefit from transparent fees: 2.5% per transaction (minimum fee of 1€ per transaction)
Each gram purchased corresponds to physical gold held in your name. You are the real and direct owner of your gold, not of a financial product.
