As well as offering a platform to use gold as money, the Glint app allows customers to buy, save, and spend in [multiple currencies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/waza) on a secure and stable platform. Built on the idea of fair pricing, the Glint app directly opposes banks, forex companies, gold dealers, and money transfer bureaus that often hide mark-ups in their exchange rates. Instead, Glint helps users manage money in a way that is transparent and genuinely works for them. Funds can be easily stored, accrued, and spent across both local and foreign currencies, as well as in gold.

In terms of security, the Glint app holds all currencies in segregated client accounts, ensuring only you have accesses to all funds. Any personal gold is physically held in one of the largest, most secure, independent, and insured vaults in Switzerland.
