Special thanks to …

Step 1 – Purchase a Package

Note : *Karatbars does not see your credit card information nor do we store your information.

You simply add what you wish to purchase in your cart and then click checkout. When you go to checkout, you will choose Credit Card. At this point, you will leave the Karatbars system and be in our CC Processors system.

The first box will ask for the name as it appears on the Credit Card. You will need to provide the credit card number / 3 digit code from the back of the card and the expiration date. Click Submit and WAIT for the next box to appear.

When you see this box pop up during checkout, it will ask you for your password. If you do not know what your Visa/ MasterCard Secure Code is, please click on “Forgot Password”

*This is NOT your PIN code…. Most people have never set up a password for the 3D Secure system in the US. Click forgot passcode … Once you have done this you will see another box pop up

The new box will pop up for you to verify that you are the owner of the card and authorized to complete the transaction. It will ask you 2 or 3 security questions, such as asking you to verify your zip code / mailing address/ etc.. The last step is to input the last 4 digits of your SS #… Click submit and WAIT

Once you have done this, you will be given an option to create your unique Verified by Visa/ MasterCard password. You will need to enter your new password twice. Click submit… and WAIT.

Once the card has been processed and the information accepted. the processing system will transfer you back into the Karatbars system. You should see the Invoice / Confirmation page now.

If you see a message in RED stating the card was declined, please make a note of the entire error message shown in RED.

Contact Security and Fraud department

If for some reason your card has been denied then you would at this time, contact your bank and ask for the security and / or fraud department along with the error code for further help. Please make sure they know that our system uses 3 D Secure technology.

Verified by Visa is a system designed by Visa to limit International credit card fraud. MasterCard also uses this system which is known as Verified by MasterCard. If you are using either Visa or MasterCard for purchases, it is no longer necessary to contact your bank prior to making a purchase.

Most customer support employees do not understand anything more than domestic transactions, this is why it is important to ask for the Security and Fraud department where they have access to the Verified by Visa and MasterCard system.

Step 2 – Upload your KYC

Everybody needs to submit 2 pieces of ID – *you will not be validated if you submit only one

KYC is also known as “Know Your Customer” or the Patriot Act. All financial institutions are required by law to maintain a current list of its client’s documentation and further verify no individual has been associated with terrorism or money laundering activity. Karatbars need you to provide evidence of your identity by uploading digital photos or scans or of relevant documents.

There are two reasons for this: one is legal, the other is practical.

Legal : Karatbars is obliged by law to establish the identity of its customers.
Practical : both Karatbars and you are much safer when we agree at the outset the repayment destination of your funds for when you eventually sell your bullion and withdraw your money.

1. Photo ID

Take a photo of any government issued photo ID by laying it on a table with all 4 corners of the ID visible and table showing beneath. Make sure that when you submit the photo that it is clear and easy to read. The photo ID does not require the address to match. This document proves citizenship or residency only. *active passport or active drivers license preferably

2. Proof of Address

Take a photo of the proof of address (POA) by laying it on a table with all 4 corners visible and table showing beneath. Make sure that when you submit the photo that it is clear and easy to read. The proof of address must have both the name and address which are listed in the Karatbars account profile match.

Why ? This limits the risk of photoshopping ID’s and POA’s and keeps the company compliant with International law.

• The POA must clearly show a date within the past 6 months.
• You may submit either a utility bill, phone bill, bank statement
• The copy must be in color. No online screen shots will be accepted.

Step 3 – Setup your auto-exchange

Start Saving First – *lead by example & practice what you preach.

We are a PAY YOURSELF FIRST business. Whether affiliate or customer, whether we have a business package or not, whether we are actively earning money with the dual system or not, our number one priority with Karatbars is: TO ACQUIRE GOLD.

The best way to do this is to adjust our weekly or monthly budget to allow for savings. All financial advisors tell us that we should be saving at least 10% of what we earn. GOLD is the ultimate way to save and our Auto-Exchange is put in place for us to do so automatically “set-it up and forget about it” is the idea.

Some people say it comes out a bit pricier than buying 2.5 grams or 5 grams at a time and yes this is true, but, it is automated and allows for quantities that are even smaller than a gram. We do in our business what we want the rest of our team to do. Auto-Exchange is one such thing we want everyone on. It is the key to an ongoing passive income generated from automated savings from everyone.

Also, in some teams, it grants people access to a Gold club where they can win free gold, partake of additional incentives, and some directors even prioritize people on Auto-Exchange when it comes to training, 3-way calls, and overall support. AUTO-EXCHANGE is the very core of what our company is all about. Activate it today!!!

The plan works… when you work the plan !

The 90 days plan is a powerful and unique savings plan that is designed to help change your spending habits into savings habits without compromising your lifestyle.

Follow the plan, and teach your team to do the same, and create rapid growth, weekly cash-flow, residual income, and perpetual gold accumulation, all paid for by the system, and all within the first 90 days.

Together Everyone Achieves More : Get plugged in and stay plugged into the company, the system, the community and your team, and learn as much as you can while you build your business.

Get in contact with your support team and exchange contact information with your personal sponsor and upline Directors.: Name, Phone, Email, Skype, Facebook

Before you establish your goals you need to know your WHY: Your WHY gets you out of bed each day, it’s your driving force and reason for doing your Karatbars business.

Now that you’ve established your goals, are plugged into the support system and scheduled your PGR, you are now ready to launch your Karatbars business by reaching out to others and inviting them to a Private Gold Reception.

A Private Gold Reception or PGR is a “by-invitation-only” event where you invite your contacts to a presentation to learn all about Karatbars. This can take place at your home, place of business, or you can simply invite to a live or recorded online PGR.

I will invite my contacts to my home OR
I will use a Live or Recorded PGR Webinar online
Schedule Your PGR Within the next 4 – 7 days : Scheduled Date(s) _______________

Your next step is to funnel your contacts through the 3 step success cycle. For best results, contact your TOP 25 within 72 hours and INVITE them to a PGR (live or recorded). Follow up with your upline Director support team immediately following the presentation to determine their level of interest. Register your brand new customers and affiliates and begin the same process with them immediately.

STEP 1 : INVITATION

Qualify your list by asking 3 questions :

Q1: Do you have 5 minutes ?
Q2. Do you like gold ?
Q3. If you could acquire pure gold bullion, without paying for it, and create a strong weekly income doing it, would you like to learn more (or hear how) ? If no, ask if they know anyone who would – If YES continue…

STEP 2 : PRESENTATION

Great! Let me connect you into a short recorded information line that will explain how and I will be right back after it’s done… So please, don’t hang up when the recording is over. Connect them to 24/7 Sizzle line.
(US) 385-232-2220 / (CAN) 604-259-8805

After they listen to the 4 minute recording, ask them 3 more questions.

Q1. Did you hear that okay ?
Q2. What did you like best about what you heard ? (Listen and acknowledge what they like best)
Q3. Ok, it sounds to me like you are open to learning more?

Ok, great, the next step is to attend a special PGR (by invitation only) which we call Private Gold Reception.

Direct them to THIS PAGE where they can watch a short overview and register for an upcoming PGR.
OR invite them to your in-home PGR (if it’s scheduled within the next 2- 3days)
SCHEDULE A FOLLOW UP ASAP – WITHIN 24HRS.
Let the upline Director you are working with assist you with this call.

STEP 3 : 3 WAY CONVERSATION

3-WAY your interested prospects to your Upline Director. Edify your Director to your prospect and vice versa.

“John” is a _________ Director having great success and (say something nice) helping me build my business.
“Mary” is my friend (how you know each other. Her background. Say something nice) and has watched the webinar (PGR)…
John, please meet Mary… and… ZIP IT!

Mute your line until the end of your call.
Let your Director answer their questions and help them get started.
Your job is to listen and learn as one day you will be the Director who is making the 3 way calls with your team.

And some videos worth your time

It’s FREE to join Karatbars > *there is NO logical reason for NOT doing it

We understand the excitement level as your organizations begin to grow. However, we do want to impress on each of you that our company does not afford affiliates the opportunity to move to various sponsors within our organization. If an affiliate has registered previously under a particular sponsor, he/she cannot be moved to a new sponsor.

We intend to respect the original sponsor which referred the Karatbars opportunity to you. There will be no exceptions to this rule. The placement is a pre-setting and once your affiliates are placed in their position, they cannot be moved.

HOWEVER if your affiliate has not purchased anything yet, we can suspend the account and then can re-register to be placed in your desired position or under their desired sponsor. For safety purposes, we need a confirmation sent from the registered e-mail address of the account in order to proceed with the suspension.

Note : A suspended account will remain displayed in your downline in your back office, however, it will have no use anymore and will not affect yours and your up-lines commissions/units in any way.

The ethics and integrity of each individual within our company must be maintained. If for some reason, you do not have access to your direct sponsor, we will connect you with the top Leaders in your group for help and support.

The different types of accounts

Spouse & husband – Same or separate accounts ?

Karatbars do NOT offer joint accounts; however, husband and wife may choose to have individual accounts set up. Each Karatbars account has an option to add a beneficiary. Each Karatbars account will have a separate Karatbars MasterCard set up in order for commissions to be paid out.

1. Customer/Affiliate account

An affiliate account is the key that open the vault to financial freedom. And a package is the option that start the accumulation of units.

2. Children account

The account is set up in the parents name. Parents will KYC using their own information and then provide a birth certificate for the child beneficiary.

3. Corporate account

People can open only 1 account but those who have a company can have 2. It is the same way that you joined with your personal position. Instead of choosing Mr, or Ms, you choose Company, You will need to provide an employee identification number. You can use your ID for KYC and a bill to the business with the correct address on it.

Registration Requirements for Companies

The Corporate office decided on acceptable business forms for company registrations, as it clearly needs to be a separate legal entity from a private individual. This can be a registered form of business that is consistent with the country or state that you live in. For example: in the U.S. and Canada, these types of businesses are usually Limited Liability Companies (LLC), Limited Liability Partnerships (LLP), Incorporated (Inc. or Co.), etc.

Some companies may use a Doing Business As (DBA) or Trade Name and this is acceptable AFTER a qualified company is registered. One company regardless of the number of DBAs or Trade names may be registered. For the purposes of Karatbars International, a company is NOT a sole proprietorship or the DBA/Trade Name of an individual.

Please understand, Karatbars International goal is NOT to make the company registration process a difficult task, but to preserve the integrity and safety of the accounts. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact Karatbars via support@karatbars.com.

NOTE : Karatbars verifies information with various regulators but may require addition documents from the affiliate on a case by case basis.

HERE ARE THE REQUIREMENTS :

1. An ID with the matching name, a clear picture in color and the DOB.

2. A Utility bill like a gas, phone bill, etc. not older than 6 months that clearly states the Company name, address, and a date. NO ENVELOPES, NO SCREENSHOTS OR ONLINE BILLS.

3. Filed Articles of Incorporation, Articles of Organization, etc. (completed documents submitted to a State or Government). A Company submitted to Karatbars for approval MUST be in “Good standing”.

4. Evidence that the individual submitting the documents is authorized to contract and transact business on behalf of the Company.

5. EIN/VAT, etc. document.

Any question regarding compliance ? Please, contact : support@karatbars.com

The auto-save is *Karatbars version of : “Pay Yourself First”

• Pending Payout of more than €200 will result in the automatic purchase of 1 gram of gold.
• Pending Payout of more than €1000 will result in the automatic purchase of 2 grams of gold.
• Pending Payout of more than €2500 will result in the automatic purchase of 3 grams of gold.
• Pending Payout of more than €4000 will result in the automatic purchase of 4 grams of gold.

Please note however that your personal monthly purchases will be taken into account. Meaning that if you have already made a gold purchase of 1, 2, 3 or 4 grams in a month, there will be no additional automatic purchase, depending, of course, on how much you have earned. Every Auto Save is calculated for 1 full month.

The Auto Save checks if you have an active automatic monthly purchase already in place or if you have made any one-time gold purchases this month, after this it checks how much commission is on your “pending payout” account.

LBMA Good Delivery is the best standard in the world for gold and silver bullion. As such, products from these refiners sometimes carry a higher premium, but it’s for a reason: it’s among the best in the world.

The LBMA is the London Bullion Market Association. It’s an international trade association for those involved in the bullion investment market–particularly gold and silver–and includes refiners, dealers, banks, mining companies, private investors and others. It’s based in–you guessed it–London, England, but has a global reach.

One of the roles of the LBMA is to vet the quality of gold and silver that is used on their exchange, much in the same way Comex verifies gold and silver products that move through that market: In order to guarantee investors are receiving a high-quality product from Comex, each bar must pass a rigid qualification test, and once a bar is included in the Comex market, it must remain in the chain of control in order to keep that qualification.

The Comex Good Delivery standard is excellent, but the LBMA Good Delivery standard is even more stringent. It’s considered the global standard of absolute excellence.

What it takes to be listed on the LBMA

To be included on the LBMA Good Delivery list, a refiner must :

Have an established track record of at least three years of producing gold or silver
Produce 10 tons of gold and 50 tons of silver, minimum, per year
Have a tangible net worth of at least £15 million ($24 million)
Demonstrate evidence of their ownership structure and directors
Provide, if required, a suitable letter of endorsement, e.g., from the central bank or an acceptable commercial bank in their country of operation.

Additionally, the product put forward for inclusion on the LBMA Good Delivery List undergoes testing and must include a full set of information.

For gold, a bar must have :

a serial number
an assay stamp of the refiner
a fineness mark (to four places)
the year of manufacture

It also must :

Contain between a minimum of 350 troy ounces (10.9 kilos) and a maximum of 430 troy ounces (13.4 kilos)
Must have a top surface of 255 x 81 mm
Must have a bottom surface of 236 x 57 mm
be 37 mm thick

Similarly, for silver, a bar must have the same marks as a gold bar, with the weight being an optional addition, and must:

contain between 750 troy ounces (23 kilos) and 1,100 troy ounces (34 kilos) of silver
be at least .999 fine
measure between 250 and 350 mm long
measure between 110 and 150 mm wide
be between 60 mm and 100 mm thick

For the Consumer

What you’ll notice about the standards for gold and silver is their size: they’re really big, heavy bars. And, just like with Comex Good Delivery bars, a consumer can’t actually take possession of them without invalidating the certification.

However, it makes sense to buy products from the LBMA Good Delivery refiners. The top-quality products are vetted by the LBMA, and you can be confident that all their products meet a similarly high standard, without requiring a massive purchase.

Current LBMA Good Delivery refiners for gold include :

the Perth Mint
The Royal Canadian Mint
Johnson Matthey Ltd
Heraeus Precious Metals
Rand Refinery
PAMP SA
Valcambi SA
Metalor USA

LBMA Good Delivery refiners for silver include :

The Perth Mint
Johnson Matthey
The Royal Canadian Mint
Heraeus Precious Metals
Rand Refinery
PAMP SA
Valcambi SA
Metalor USA

The Official Karatbars Gold Stamp

Karatbars management has negotiated a deal with the refinery NADIR in order to create an official Karatbars Stamp which will be embedded directly into the gold ingot. This not only increases our integrity but also physically brands the actual gold ingot with our Karatbars logo. ALL gold now leaving corporate (*since 17-02-2015) will no longer carry the Karatbars hologram, but instead the official Karatbars trademark stamped into the physical gold itself.

A picture is worth a 1000 words ? … A video is worth 1000 pictures !

Every customer/affiliate of Karatbars is able to maintain, direct and manage their own account. With every purchase, you select whether you want to store the gold or have it shipped for delivery.

Free storage

Every customer/ affiliate of Karatbars is able to maintain, direct and manage their own account. If you choose delivery you can receive your gold from 1 gram at a time. For others who prefer to store their Gold offshore, Karatbars offer free storage in secure vaults.

Storage Security

Karatbars International uses a four-eyed principle with our gold. Every Time one person touches it, there have to be four sets of eyes signing off on it. One of those sets of eyes is video surveillance.

Karatbars International has their own vaults within the home office. It meets and exceeds all government requirements for vaulting gold and security. The vaults are insured for over 4 million euros. This is where we store the small gold bars… (1 – 2.5 and 5 gram)

These large bars are the companies and are allocated to Karatbars for their customers. When Karatbars need to provide smaller gram weights they remove a large bar and the Refinery melts it down to the smaller weights, send them to Karatbars where they are placed in the Karatbars vaults. Karatbars will not provide the information publicly where the large gold bars are stored and in what vault. Due to security reasons, Karatbars only supply this information to the German government.

The German government can audit the gold reserves in the company at will and designate a 3rd party auditing company to come in and audit all gold storage. This is done twice a year. Karatbars has a clear pass record due to the fact they always keep excess gold in their storage vaults than what their customer storage holdings are.

If Karatbars ever failed an audit, it would make the news, as Government policy.

At anytime you can click a button and request all or any part of your stored gold delivered to you. What people are usually doing is they accumulate Gold in their account and ask for shipping once they have multiple grams in order to save on the shipping fees, delivered by Fed Ex.

The information is sent to the vaulting company where arrangements are made for shipment / delivery. The gold is also insured throughout the delivery process. The insurance is valid until you sign that you have received your gold and have it in hand.

Multiple orders

Karatbars International can not combine gold and package orders due to insurance reasons. If you accumulated Gold and it was all STORED GOLD.

You can make a Delivery Request anytime under MY GOLD tab.

Karatbars.com > Login > My Gold > Delivery Request

It’s not what it costs; it’s what the market says it’s worth. Cost and worth are two different things, much like an acre of land on the U.S west coast in Malibu is worth more than an acre of land in Iowa. Karatbars is “prime real estate”.

It costs less than comparable 1-gram gold bullion bars of this quality; it resells for more; and it holds its value out of the vault.

It is strongly suggested and you are more than welcome to sell gold cards from your inventory. A best practice consists of placing a Karatbars visual close to the cash machine. Because you’ll want all the customers of your store to see the Karatbars by themselves, as it’s also a great way to recruit new people in your team.

Premium & Professional Pool

The Statistics on your Dashboard (*bottom-right corner)

Pending Unilevel Payout : Unilevel calculations are run on the 11th of each month to determine Unilevel rank and commission level. The final calculations will be posted in the Account Area on the 11th of each month. The Pending UniLevel bonus pays out on first business day of each month onto the Karatbars Debit Card.

The Unilevel system is paid out Monthly : Commissions made from Feb 11th to March 11th = Pays out on April 1.

Pending Dual Payout is the total amount of commissions earned from the previous week’s business. The time period from the previous week’s activity, from Saturday to Friday midnite CET (Germany) This field will go to zero once the commissions have been transferred to the Karatbars debit card each Friday. The field is now ready to accept current commission which has been earned from the “Dual Commissions this Week” field.

Dual Commissions This Week : Are calculated in real time. The commissions will accrue in real time from the Dual Team System current week of business. The weeks current cycle ends at Friday midnight CET (Germany). At the week’s close of business, the total commissions from the “Dual Commissions This Week” field will move up to the Pending Dual Payout field.

During the first six weeks of becoming a newly registered affiliate with Karatbars, new affiliates have the opportunity to earn double commissions (30€) from the direct sale of all products within our 3D product line. The double income offer is only available on these products only.

Karatbars.com > Login > Product Purchase > Special Karatbar > 3D Metal Karatbar

With the Unilevel Bonus, you start as a Distributor and receive points for each sale, from your own sales or from your whole organization’s sales. For every 2 Euro in sales, you get 1 point. For example, for 100 Euros in sales, you get 50 points and for all products sold, you receive between 0.5% and 6% on your entire organization.

You qualify for a rank in the Unilevel plan on the achieved points in a certain period. The total points that you and your organization produce determines your rank.

Example: You achieve the rank of Bronze Supervisor (1% in direct commission) by earning 500 points. That is 1,000 Euros in total group sales. For this rank, there is no time limit. For the rank of Silver Supervisor, you need 1,250 points in a one-month period. This can be achieved by personal sales volume or by organizational volume.

All the points from your entire organization count.

From the rank of Gold Supervisor to Gold Manager, the ranks must be achieved 3 times within 12 months to retain this rank for life. Each time the affiliate achieves the respective ranks, the qualifying rank income counts for that period.

From Bronze Director rank, points and sales are achieved monthly to get the commission. Once you reached Bronze Director, the lifetime rank of Gold Manager is guaranteed, even if this has not been confirmed 3 times.

In addition to the direct commissions on your personal referrals, you receive the differential commissions from the sales of your affiliates, but only if your rank is higher than any of your direct affiliate referrals.

For points, a month is measured from the 11th through the 10th of the following month and then reset. Unilevel commissions are paid on or about the 1st of the next month. E.g. January 11-February 10th is paid on March 2nd (the first business day following the 1st).

To qualify for the director positions you need at least 2 or 3 direct lines (direct affiliates) and a certain number of sales per month. Example:

As a Bronze Director, you need at least 2 lines where one line generates 4,000 points (8,000 Euros turnover) and the other line(s) or rather the rest of your organization generate 2,000 points (4,000 Euros turnover).

To qualify for the Gold Director Elite you need at least 3 lines, where one line generates at least 9,000 points, another line at least 4,000 points, and the third or rather the rest at least 3,000 points in a month.

Also required is at least 200 additional sales and a qualified Gold Director in your organization. A sale is any single purchase (of any amount) by someone in your organization other than purchases within your own account.

If you have a Gold Director Elite in one line in your organization, you receive a differential commission of 0.25% on all sales from the organization of this Gold Director Elite. That is to say, you are at 5.75%.

If a second one from the same line achieves it, you get the level 5.90%. That means 0.15% of their total sales and if a third one achieves it from the same line, you get the level of 6.0% and thus 0.1% of their total sales.

This pool is divided into 8 levels.

From each gram of gold bars sold worldwide in Karatbars, 0.95 Euros goes in the Karatbars pool.
Each sale of a product is considered a contract.

Example

Level 1: 0.20 € per gram will be distributed in the first level.

If Karatbars sells 250 kg in a billing cycle this would be 250,000 grams.
250,000 x 0.20 = € 50,000 will be distributed in the first level.

50 people qualified for this level as follows:
– 25 people have 1 line with 5,000 points and a residual turnover with 1,000 points
– 10 people have 1 line with 5,000 points and a residual turnover with 2,000 points
– 7 people have 1 line with 5,000 points and a residual turnover with 3,000 points
– 5 people have 1 line with 5,000 points and a residual turnover with 4,000 points
– 2 people have 1 line with 5,000 points and a residual turnover with 5,000 points

The residual turnover on the weaker side per 1,000 points counts as a part:
– 25 people have 1 part = 25 parts
– 10 people have 2 part = 20 parts
– 7 people have 3 part = 21 parts
– 5 people have 4 part = 20 parts
– 2 people have 5 part = 10 parts

Total = 96 shares

Earn on worldwide gold turnover!

1% of the one-time exchanges – over 500€ are placed into the fund.

1st Direct line 9000+ points
2nd Direct line 9000+ points
3rd Direct line 9000+ points

1% of the gold sold from one time purchases goes to the Karatbars Gold Fund. It includes all one time purchases in the world from sales over 500€ for the respective monthly period. Those who have 3 direct lines with at least 9,000 points are entitled to share in it. Everyone qualified has shares within this fund. The fund is reset monthly.

Example : 500 grams are in the fund, 100 parts are available. Each Part = 5 grams
Partner 1: 145 grams
Partner 2: 165 grams
Partner 3: 190 grams

*this will be deposited as a Gold Bonus in the back office to the qualified affiliates.

There is many, but the primary advantage is your business obtaining a position in the Dual System pay plan. Which will make you earn between 5% and 20% direct commission dependent upon which package you choose. And also either 10€ or 80€ for each cycle completed in the dual team network.

Bronze package reward you 10 euro ($13 USD) per cycle + 5% on commissions
Silver package reward you 40 euro ($50 USD) per cycle + 10% on commissions
Gold package reward you 60 euro ($75 USD) per cycle + 15% on commissions
VIP package reward you 80 euro ($100 USD) per cycle + 20% on commissions

At the end of each week on every Friday (as you are paid weekly on the dual system), the units stay there until you accumulate enough units on your other leg to cycle and it pays you to infinity. Units never “flush” and always “carry over” to the next pay cycle.

Once your Left or Right Team accumulates 50 units and the other side accumulates 25 units, you cycle. Depending on what package you bought determines how much you earn from each and every cycle. So if someone 1000 levels down from you purchases a package, you will still receive the units made from that side.

Prices may vary : *according to the daily price of gold.

Each package : *also include

1 x 0,1g Cashgold
1 x VIP Pin
1 x Image Brochure
1 x Gold Brochure
1 x Compensation Plan
1 x Presentation
2 x K-Exchange Brochure
2 x Branding Card Brochure

What’s inside a Gold Cash Box ?

If you do not already have a Dual Team status, the first purchase of any Cashgold Box will entitle you to the corresponding Dual Team status. This only occurs after submitting one of the Profit Cards, which are included in the boxes.

If you already have a Profit Card, please make sure to submit it PRIOR to your purchase in order to ensure that you receive the Dual Team status immediately after your purchase and before receiving the physical box… Examples:

Scenario 1 – No Dual Team status, no Profit Card and a Cashgold Box purchase: Dual status is PENDING until the physical package is received AND/OR a Profit Card number is submitted via your back office. No Dual Team status benefits are available (direct commission or Dual Team Payout) while in this PENDING mode.

No Dual Team Status- > 1 Star -> Silver Status PENDING until Profit Card number submitted
No Dual Team Status -> 2 Star -> Gold Status PENDING until Profit Card number submitted
No Dual Team Status -> 3 Star -> VIP Status PENDING until Profit Card number submitted

Scenario 2 – No Dual Team status, Profit Card number is submitted PRIOR to a Cashgold Box purchase. Dual status is confirmed IMMEDIATELY, even before the shipment has been received. Dual Team status benefits available immediately after purchase.

No Dual Team Status- > 1 Star -> Silver Status
No Dual Team Status -> 2 Star -> Gold Status
No Dual Team Status -> 3 Star -> VIP Status

Scenario 3 – If you already have a Dual Team status, enter a profit card and subsequently purchase a Cashgold Box higher than your current Dual Team status, you will IMMEDIATELY upgrade.

Bronze Status -> 1 Star -> Silver Status
Silver Status -> 1 Star -> No Change
Gold Status -> 1 Star -> No Change
VIP Status -> 1 Star -> No Change

Bronze Status -> 2 Star -> Gold Status
Silver Status -> 2 Star -> Gold Status
Gold Status -> 2 Star -> No Change
VIP Status -> 2 Star -> No Change

Bronze Status -> 3 Star -> VIP Status

Regarding MasterCard expiration and new card issuance

As the Karatbars Prepaid MasterCard is a PREPAID card and not a credit or debit card, the “contract” between the card holder and PFS, ends with the expiry date due to the terms and conditions. At the moment, there is no system in place where we, Karatbars or the cardholder is notified by PFS regarding the expiry date.

Our procedure, in this case, is as follows:
If a card of an affiliate is expired we receive an error during the commission payout process. After that we are sending an email to the affiliate, letting him know that his/her card has expired and asked him/her if the affiliate would like to have a new card. We also advise the affiliate that we would deduct a one-time fee of 20 € for the new card. As soon as the affiliate answers to our email, by confirming his address, we order a new Karatbars Prepaid MasterCard due to affiliate’s request.

Please be informed that we still do not know when online purchases/ preorder of MC will be available again, but our IT department is working on it. As soon as we have any news you will be informed by the newsletter.

Upgraded Security for Karatbars Prepaid Cards

In order to ensure your online shopping experience is as safe and secure as possible, PFS have now enabled MasterCard® 3D SecureCode on all Karatbars prepaid cards. 3D SecureCode is the safest way of using your card online and is used by over 1 million merchants worldwide to authenticate transactions and prevent online fraud.

3D SecureCode ensures online transactions are carried out by the designated cardholder only, in a similar way to using a cards PIN number during face to face transactions. 3D SecureCode is the safest way of using your card online and is used by over 1 million merchants worldwide to authenticate transactions and prevent online fraud. 3D SecureCode ensures online transactions are
carried out by the designated cardholder only, in a similar way to using a card PIN number during face to face transactions.

To initially enrol in the 3D SecureCode scheme

Customers must provide answers to security questions (questions based on registration information held and validated by the card issuer, i.e. PFS) to confirm their identity.

Once this is confirmed, customers are prompted to set-up a 3D SecureCode password which will only be known to them. No other third-party, including merchants, will be aware of this password.

When completing an online purchase at participating merchants, parts of this password (for example 1st, 4th and 7th characters) will be requested at the authorization stage (in the form of a MasterCard personal greeting frame similar to the image as shown below).

The customer provides the requested information, and the authorisation is approved immediately after completion of the correct password.

Please be advised the next time you use your card online at a participating merchant, you will be prompted to register for 3D SecureCode and confirm your identity and choose your secure password. The transaction will not be processed without this enhanced authentication occurring.

On the rare occasions, a merchant is not enrolled in the 3D SecureCode scheme, customers will NOT be prompted for their chosen password at the authorisation stage. For these transactions, if an investigation proves they aren’t authorized by the customer, the merchant will bear the cost of any unauthorized cost of liability, thus protecting the customer’s funds at all times.

About Prepaid Financial Services Limited

The Card allows Karatbars to pay you commission that you have earned in connection with gold trades that you have carried out as an affiliate of Karatbars International. Although Prepaid Financial Services Limited issues the cards it does not provide gold trading services and is in no way connected with the gold trading services provided by Karatbars.

The Karatbars Prepaid MasterCard Card is issued by Prepaid Financial Services Limited pursuant to a license from MasterCard International Incorporated. MasterCard and the MasterCard Brand Mark are registered trademarks of MasterCard International Incorporated. Prepaid Financial Services Limited is regulated and authorized by the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom. Registered Office: 4th Floor, 36 Carnaby Street, London, W1F 7DR. All communications should be sent to Karatbars International GmbH, Konigstrabe 52, 70173 Stuttgart, Germany.

Dual Team Payout Maximization

Affiliates can generate up to 180,000 Dual Team Payouts (DTP) per week. In order for this to be possible Karatbars International has integrated “DTP Maximization”. This system operates in REAL TIME calculating the number of DTPs previously generated and then optimizing the maximum payout.

Special Payout for the Cashbox

You have a VIP -Status and receive 20% in direct commissions.
Someone directly sponsored by you buys a 3 Star Cashbox for € 1900.
The direct commission percentage we make available for the Cashbox is 25%.
25% of € 1900 = € 475
20% of € 475 = € 95
So you receive € 95 in direct commissions.

Special Payout for the Karatbars Cosmetics

You have a VIP -Status and receive 20% in direct commissions.
Someone directly sponsored by you buys Luxury Body Oil Katharina for € 269.
The direct commission percentage we make available for the Bath oil is 50%.
50% of € 269 = € 134.5
20% of € 134.5 = € 26.9
So you receive € 26.9 0 in direct commissions.

Upgrade Units adjustments calculations

All units earned at a qualification level will be adjusted in numbers when upgrading.

Tip : Upgrade to VIP as soon as possible to avoid units adjustments

When you upgrade your affiliate Dual Team Qualification to a higher level, all units you have will be adjusted in numbers so that your payout for those units will be the same as the payout amount would have been had they paid out at the level they were earned.

This is done by reducing the number of units. The adjustment is the amount required to ensure the commissions earned for those units at the higher payout amounts per payout (50/25) will equal the commissions amount for those units had those units paid out at the level they were earned, prior to upgrade.

How the units are calculated

But you will not make money if no movement is created so let’s start with how to create that movement finances.

Pay yourself first

ALWAYS replace a portion of your profits for gold, try to purchase at least 1 gram of gold on a regular basis. When you receive commissions, pay yourself buying 1 gram gold each time. (1 gram per week is better than 1 gram per month) Saving more than 1 gram increase your account, that’s why the 2.5 and 5 gram are for.

Let’s see how the rapid action plan works

1. Your Contacts

Invite your contacts to attend our presentations, or just send them to our website using your unique ID. How many people you know who are looking for an opportunity to improve their finances ? You have in your hands a real opportunity, very solid and unbeatable, talk about it with all the world.

2. We present.

You are starting, you think you can begin to present the business itself, perfect, do it, but if not take advantage of us do it for you.

3. Leverage technology to make a 3 Ways call.

Take advantage of what the Internet offers you have at your disposal Skype to make calls to 3, organize multicalls between you, your sponsor and your guests so that they see that you are not alone and benefit from this form of knowledge of their uplines.

3. Let your contacts decide.

Leave the decision up to your contacts, DO NOT TRY TO CONVINCE ANYONE. Just stay available and do your follow-up. Your contacts should make their own decision, there is no worse affiliate who enters into a business having been convinced by insistence, never do anything and you will lose your valuable time.

4. Repeat again and again.

Repeat the previous 3 steps in the same order over and over again until you reach your goals, it is that simple.

It takes 75 units to cycle *but with a power leg in place = You only need 25.

Team work = is when the people above you are doing 1/2 of the work for you.

Step 1 : Contact your sponsor & identify which side is your powerleg (*start building on that side)

Step 2 : Have a units goal in mind before starting & keep focus until you reach your goal.

Step 3 : Change side, build your money leg – And start saving money by accumulating 24K Gold !!

The most powerful feature we have in our Tool Box.

Please practice doing a 3-way call before you actually do the first one with a Director. They need to know who you are and that you want to build this business. When you sponsor someone it is your job to do a 3-way welcome call with at least a couple of the Directors and introduce your new affiliate to them. You are on their team somewhere.

When you want to have a time booked with a Director for a 3-way call, text or call him/her to see who is available at a time that your prospect will be available, confirm the time, (15 minute window) then conduct the 3-way call. Make sure and give them a proper introduction and edify them. Edify your prospect to your Director too. Also, give the Directors a heads up of the guest that will be on the call and if they have any particular questions. Once the introductions are done, please mute your phone and listen as to how the Director handles the call.

Please be attentive as the Director may ask you a question and you need to quickly un-mute the phone, answer the question and then mute it again. The Director knows how to handle the call with the information you provided them prior to the call. The information should include their name(s), their occupation and what videos they have watched prior to the call. If the prospect does not answer the phone or wants to postpone the call, notify the Director with a quick text as their time is very valuable. Also, if there is a time issue that the Director should know about (eg: prospect only has a few minutes) or affiliate has to go to work, rebook the call.

By rushing the 3-way call you are defeating the purpose of the call. It is now a waste of everyone time and the new prospect or affiliate doesn’t get their questions answered and we are back at square one. Please do not deprive a new affiliate of that precious time with a Director.

With Who ?

Directors available to our team for 3 way calls. Try to match personalities or occupations, possibly women to women or men to men, sometimes the opposites work. Sometimes it is not a choice due to timing, so find someone. Get to know your Directors, they are the ones making the money and are prepared to help you make money and grow your business. Your sponsor is generally just learning and can not be expected to know the answers. Even as a Director, we as Directors use each other for our own recruits too.

Embrace the 3-way call and they will take all the pressure off of you. It is truly a magic key to building this business. While you are on the call, you are in training as to how to do 3-way calls later as your team grows and you become a leader.

When to do a 3 way call ?

When you sponsor a new affiliate who has a free spot, that is called a welcome call. (conducted the same way as a 3-way call). A new affiliate should get connected with at least 3 Directors within 24-48 hours of sign-up.

When your new affiliate has written questions and is showing resistance to moving forward.

When your affiliate achieves a milestone in their business and recognition is in order.

When is it premature to do a 3 way call ?

When the prospect has not watched any videos and has questions, DO NOT do a 3-way call, make sure they listen to the videos first.

Before they at least have a free spot, DO Not do a 3 way. If the 3-way call is done before the person takes a free spot and the Director talks to them it will feel like pressure to both the prospect and the Director. We must train and learn enough to be able to give away a free spot. The only exception to that is when it is cleared with the Director first.

A 3-way call is not intended to help you recruit for a free spot, it is intended to answer specific questions, welcome calls and move people along the information pipeline. The Director will encourage people to continue to watch the videos and write down their questions.

The value of edification ?

“Edification” is the act of speaking or writing highly of someone ~ building up his or her credibility. Everyone has some exceptional qualities ~ a reason why they should be treated and listened to with respect. “Edifying” is the honest and sincere process of making those qualities clear to someone new.

Imagine someone introducing your new financial planner to you as “This is Bob . . . give him all your money”. Doesn’t exactly inspire confidence. On the other hand ~ “This is my trusted Financial Adviser, Bob Smith, whose insight and experience have given me 20% returns every year for the past 5 years.” This might make you feel a bit more receptive. The difference between the two introductions is called “Edifying”.

Edifying is simply explaining to someone in a few sentences why they should trust a third party you are about to introduce to them. It should communicate quickly, simply and sincerely why you consider that third party to be an authority ~ and why what they have to say is both important and believable.

A great benefit of edifying someone is that it elevates you by association. For example ~ If in a 3-way call ~ you say to your prospect the following :

“Doug ~ I’d like you to meet Carole Taylor. Carole has been in Network Marketing for 30 years and really understands what makes an opportunity exceptional. Carole is the #1 Income Earner in Canada for Karatbars. She is one of 3 people who became a Gold Director Elite in only a few weeks and has built MANY successful Teams. She is my Team Leader and I feel she is the best person to explain why Karatbars might be a good fit for you.

Carole, this is Doug. Doug is a sincere person with amazing people skills, very motivated, super-credible ~ and very interested in starting his own home-based business.” I think Doug will be a valuable asset to our Team.

You have now explained to Doug why Carole is on the phone with you, what her qualifications are and why he should listen to what she has to say. At the same time, you have made Doug’s exceptional qualities clear to Carole and boosted your own status by your association with both of them.

It is very important to “edify” the person doing the 3-Way Call with your prospect ~ and also to “edify” the prospect to the person you have chosen to be your “expert” on the 3-way call. This brings credibility to both people ~ and prepares the way for a very effective call.

The goal of a PGR is to inform, educate and inspire prospects to take action.

Build momentum by hosting a PGR

A Private Gold Reception, or PGR is a simple way to contact large numbers of people at once, making effective use of your time and modeling for others how efficient the Karatbars business with us can be. It’s a system that has been proven to duplicate very rapidly, building a solid downline quickly.

It’s ALSO a very effective way to contact your warm market; notify them about the Karatbars system and business; book additional PGR’s with your new Affiliates that have just joined and ask for referrals.

Prepare for a Successful PGR

STEP 1 – Decide where and when you want to host your PGR. In your home or at a private place (small office / board room or community room etc). The room should hold 5-20 people and your goal should be to have anywhere from 5+ guests attend!

STEP 2 – Set right expectations: In order to have 5 guests attend, we must have confirmation from at least 10. It’s just the nature of this business that people cancel at the last minute for various reasons. Consider it a bonus if all 10 show up. It’s never you, it’s called human behavior.

STEP 3 – Prepare contact list and invite, invite, invite! UNDERSTAND that the PGR is not a place to get the first exposure; it’s a final 3rd party validation to help those in attendance make a decision and get started. It’s a call to action and new Affiliate(s) are encouraged to commit to booking their own PGR right there. For that reason, we have to assure that everyone has gone through the 3 step invitation, presentation & 3way conversation process.

STEP 4 – Inform the upline Director of your upcoming PGR so that they can clear their schedule and assist you with 3way calls. Let your upline partner (Director) know that you’ve created a special list of people to invite to your upcoming PGR, so that your upline partner can INVITE your prospect(s) to your PGR on your behalf when on the 3way call with them.

If your PGR is more than a week away then your Director can help you close your local contacts into the business and help them invite their guests to your PGR as well and LEVERAGE to get more people to your PGR by encouraging your new affiliates to bring their guests too!

STEP 5 – Confirm with one of your upline Directors if they are available to skype or call in by speaker phone to help you close. If one of your upline Directors is in your area, he or she may be able to attend your PGR.

STEP 6 – Get a solid follow-up commitment from your guests/prospects: call them the night before to confirm that they are still coming over. A great way is to involve your upline Director who will be calling in or coming to your PGR on a 3way confirmation call. Upline Director will ask if they will hear or see them tomorrow and tell them that there will be some great and important information shared etc. You may even ask your guests to bring something small (like a computer cable or something) to further confirm their attendance.

Setting up for your PGR

Set up a few brochures that came in your package or print them out in the Karatbars back office (branding cards, k-exchange) and actual gold cards that you pass around and collect again while they watch the presentation.

Have videos ready to play (play either off internet via TV or project onto a screen). We recommend to show the recorded VGR video on golddirectorelite.com/start and don’t worry if they have seen it already, they will discover new things that they have not paid attention to yet. The more times they see it, the better they will understand it !

Confirm with your upline Director whether they will be calling in to close the meeting by speaker phone, via skype or be there in person. Also, ask your Director how they would like to be edified. This is very important to set the stage and give your Director the right to speak!

Test your equipment before … Have at least ONE laptop or computer ready to help people register for a free account and potential sign ups for business packages. KYC TIP: You may already be able to upload the KYC documents of those new affiliates that have their driver’s license with them and have a vehicle registration or insurance document in the car.

PGR Host Agenda (keep PGR to 60-75 min max)

Make sure your PBR event is scheduled for no more than 60-75 minutes and let people know that right up front. People are busy and will be more receptive to attending when there’s a START and a STOP time designated on the invitation.

Spend 10 minutes mixing and mingling with simple refreshments; then invite your guests to take their seats. Share a 2-3 minute story about yourself and why you got involved with the company. Show the video PRESENTATION followed by the SKYPE / CALL or INPERSON CLOSE of your upline Director.

Edify your Director in front of your group and then edify your group to your upline Director. Let him or her know how many are in the room with you, ahead of time (text them while videos are playing)

Observe the room carefully during the video presentation and while your upline Director speaks and look for the so-called “non-verbal buying signs” (ie who is nodding, who is paying real close attention, who is sitting at the edge of their seats). Listen closely to what your Director says so that you don’t miss a beat in registering everyone for a free account and potential packages right after.

TIP : Most people have an average of 300+ contacts in their mobile phone contact list. Start with your contact list in your phone.

In order to start, you must do what is called a “Memory Jogger”, which is a list of names of people that you know that you will call or contact to tell about Karatbars International. This list will trigger your mind of people that you know. It is a Psychological Fact that if you are 25 years or older, you know 1000 people! You have just forgotten most of them, so you need a reminder of them. That is the purpose for a Memory Jogger.

The list could contain names of family, occupations, associations, plus much more. You need to look at the list and come up with as many names as you can. You must come up with at least 100 names and you are going to want phone numbers. If you are Facebook friends or have an email that will help too. This will give you what is called a “Working Inventory”.

Your list will grow dynamically as you meet new people that you will introduce to Karatbars and as you keep thinking of more people.

To DOUBLE the size of any Memory Jogger, you need to ask a question. “Who do you know that they know ?” .. this will double size any Names List you can potentially come up with.

It is PEOPLE and you MUST have people to talk to about what you are doing. Many folks who start out have way too few names, and then complain that they have no one to talk to. Think of everyone you know WITHOUT judging their interest level, and write their name down. If you can, ask your partner to do it with you. Doing a Memory Jogger is important to your getting off to a good start in your Home Based Business. It will become a very important part of your beginning success with Karatbars International.

These tactics are what we have found to be extremely effective in creating leads and consistent people to call on. There are hundreds of ways to Prospect. These are just a few to get you started and on your way. Take one which appeals to you and start immediately.

1) People that care about you.

A warm or hot market is a great place to start. But ask yourself a question: Who really cares about my success and future ? Start there and ask for their help. You will be surprised how caring and emotions can be of benefit to you. If they do care about you, they will listen to you and try to help.

2) People you truly care about.

Who do you truly care about and want to have a great life? Start there. Your compassion and caring will come through and impact in a positive way. People liked to be thought of, and this is a way to make that happen and also to show your feelings towards their future and Life.

3) People that you know that care about the same things.

Who has a commonality with you in caring for the same things? Perhaps you know them from a club or church, or an association. You have already established that you have something in common that matters to you both. And your business would be a great way to expand that relationship.

4) Follow your Dollar.

Who do you do business with? Who do you give money to on a regular basis? Whether it is shopping or getting something repaired or simply paying to have some work done, those are the people you want to target. Who did you buy your car from? Who sells you your clothing and groceries? Follow your dollar. There is a gold mine there in contacts and potential sales. They may be hesitant about joining you but ask for referrals. They owe them to you

5) The Goldmine on your desk.

Most folks have some form of a Rolodex or card case on their desk, or in their planner. But most have a listing of who they have gathered cards from. Even in their palm pilot. Most Business owners have a great Rolodex but less than 10% of the cards produce revenue for them.

6) Ask for Referrals.

This business is not for everyone. But everyone knows someone, who it could be for. Ask for referrals. And it really depends on how you ask, that determines the response. Say, “Obviously this isn’t for you, but if you were me, who would be the first 2 people you would call to share this with?” And then call them. Say “Hello Mary? My name is Doug, and I promised Tom I would give you a call to share an idea he thought you would enjoy.”

7) Business owners you know or someone else knows them.

Business owners, especially small business owners are always looking for ways to increase value to their employees, and to increase the bottom line to their company. A lot of business owners have found Network Marketing to be a great secondary profit center for their business. And they all have associations they belong to with other business owners. A good way to prospect them is to ask for their advice on Marketing and their help in marketing your products. Don’t forget the Goldmine on their desk, their Rolodex.

8) Stay at Home moms.

One of the fastest growing sectors in MLM is the stay at home mom. Many women professionals are starting to leave their jobs and careers to spend time with their family. Their values seem to be changing, and with that comes a great opportunity to help them reclaim the income they lost. And they already have proven themselves to be an asset in the workforce. Also, over 70% of all networkers are women.

9) Chamber of Commerce.

Every city has a Chamber of Commerce. And most members are all business minded which means a goldmine for sales and referrals and even some distributors. Join your chamber or at least attend some functions and get a listing of members.

10) Civic/Charitable organizations.

Join a Civic group to first, make a difference in your city, not just to network. And become known as a go-getter and helper, and as you do these things, ask for people’s referrals. And there may be times somewhere down the line you could let them try your products. But understand – FIRST make a difference in the group, and then you will have a better chance of making a difference with them with your business.

Now for the first time in history, all the pieces of The Secret come together in a revelation that is life transforming for all who experience it.
