CORO customers can instantly exchange U.S. dollars for gold on the app, as well as save gold and send it to other CORO customers. Customers’ gold accounts are matched by their equivalent in physical gold, which is audited and securely stored by the International Depository Services Group, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dillon Gage.
CORO has just been released in the Apple App and Google Play stores to residents of Florida, Arizona, Arkansas, Alaska, Delaware, Idaho, Montana, Massachusetts, South Carolina, and Wisconsin. The company is planning to release CORO in additional U.S. states over the coming months.
“It’s extremely important for our customers to know that the amount of gold they see on their screen represents a tangible amount of physical gold in an independent vault,” said J. Mark Goode, CEO of Coro Global Inc. “Given today’s economic uncertainty, we support the use of gold as money, which is physical, and historically resilient.”
