Vault & Custody
From self custody to institutional vaulting, depositories, and AVM-connected storage.
This page is where the storage and custody model comes together: personal control, safes, participating retailers, depository relationships, automated vault machines, and the digital visibility that ties those holdings back into the app.
Self CustodyHome vaults and safes can give users direct possession and control, but they do not earn interest and still leave storage responsibility on the owner.
Safety DepositsBank safety deposit boxes can offer another secure storage path, but they do not give instant access and space is often limited.
DepositoriesIDS, American Equity and Trust, and larger custody partners fit here as the institutional side of the vault story.
Automated Vault MachinesAVMs create a modern access layer between physical metals, testing, intake, and vault-connected handling.
Participating RetailersRetail vault partners can help extend secure intake and storage access in a more distributed network.
Custodian RelationshipsCustodian and depository relationships help support larger holdings and more formal vaulting paths.
Digital VisibilityThe app helps users keep better visibility into what they own, where it is stored, and how it can move.
