Multiple iGolder Accounts

You may have multiple accounts, however you must contact iGolder to request an additional account.  Only our Verified Members may have multiple accounts, and the fee to open an additional account is one gram of gold.

Please understand this restriction is essential to combat fraud and criminal activities.  Fraudsters often use multiple accounts to hide their identities, and care little about their reputation because they know they can come back under a new identity.  When a member is restricted to a single account, he is more likely to behave ethically because his account reputation exposes all his business activities, and if his account is terminated, he will not be able to use iGolder anymore.

Please do not try to open multiple account to circumvent our Know Your Customer policy.  If we discover an individual having multiple accounts without our authorization, we will consider this a violation of our Account Agreement and will freeze all accounts for investigation.

Multiple Sub-Accounts

There is little need to have multiple accounts, because your account can hold an unlimited number of sub-accounts at no cost.  Also, there are no fees to transfer gold from any of your sub-accounts.

Each sub-account has a name, so you may operate multiple businesses from your account without disclosing your other businesses.  You may pick a DBA name (Doing Business As) for each sub-account and therefore operate multiple businesses with a single account.  Your customers will never know about your other businesses, unless you wish to disclose them.  To ensure privacy between your business transactions and your personal life, iGolder maintains a list of feedback comments for each sub-account.  Your overall reputation is shared however, so if one of your business earns a bad reputation, it will affect your overall feedback reputation score (also known as Karma).  Your Karma is calculated from all transactions under your account.  On the other hand, any new business you create will automatically inherit the reputation you enjoy at iGolder.

Feel free to contact us if you need another iGolder account.  We want to learn from you, and improve iGolder to better serve your business needs.  Perhaps you need an extra account to share transactions with your business partner or something else.  We will do our best to accommodate your needs.
