* Do you know what The Word Fungible Means?

* The Goldback® is the world’s first physical, interchangeable, gold money, that is designed to accommodate even small transactions.

* “The Goldback solves a 2,600 year old problem in that gold can be spent in small, interchangeable increments.” – DR. Mark Voelker, UPMA Board Member.

* The United Precious Metals Association (UPMA) was established in response to the passage of the Utah Specie Legal Tender Act in early 2011. UPMA aims to provide viable choices in currency; offering accounts denominated in US minted gold and silver dollars as well as free Goldback accounts. Members benefit from 0% buy/sell spreads and low vaulting costs.

* Members of UPMA.org can easily access their wealth by means of linked debit cards, Wire transfers, physical checks, or by taking physical possession of their holdings. Membership dues and average account fees run only a few dollars a month, making UPMA a very affordable option for saving and transacting with sound money.
