Anyone can buy technology. Not the best people.
That's exactly why the Golden Motivational Benefit was created – so a company can reward the people whose performance, responsibility and loyalty create its real value.
Why the Golden Motivational Benefit was created
A one-off cash bonus often quickly blends into everyday expenses. The gold benefit brings a different idea: the employee receives a reward that turns into an asset and can gradually become part of their personal reserve.
A contribution that can be credited directly in grams of gold
There is also a practical way to provide the Golden Motivational Benefit contribution in a non-cash form. Instead of a standard cash reward, the employee receives a precisely defined amount of gold directly.
If the company has an iiplan MAX® account set up, it can credit grams of gold to employees instantly online. The company decides for itself who receives the benefit, when, and in what amount.
This level of precision allows the benefit to be set flexibly, even for small regular contributions, performance rewards or one-off recognition.
How the benefit works in practice
The entire process runs online – from setting the conditions, through evaluation, to crediting gold directly to the employee's account.
Examples of reward levels
The following values are illustrative only. The actual amount of the benefit, its frequency and conditions are always determined by the employer.
| Level | Sample contribution | Possible use case |
|---|---|---|
| Regular motivational reward | from 0.1 g per month | a steady, recurring reward for standard performance |
| Reaching a performance goal | 0.25 – 1 g | achieving a specific goal or task |
| Exceptional contribution | 1 – 5 g | an outstanding result or initiative beyond regular duties |
| Key manager | individually set | team leadership and long-term responsibility |
⚠ A basic condition is that the employee has their own iiplan GOLD® account, similar to their own personal bank account. By opening it, they become a client of IBIS InGold and gain a full, personal account that they can use independently and long-term, regardless of whether they draw on the benefit.
The iiplan GOLD® account should therefore not be set up exclusively for one-off or single-purpose use within the Benefit Gold programme. If it were opened solely for this purpose, IBIS InGold reserves the right to refuse to open it. Full terms and conditions HERE.
Start with a pilot programme
You don't need to change your entire reward system at once. You can first test the Golden Motivational Benefit in a selected department, location, or with a group of your top-performing employees.
The company motivates. The employee builds value.
A flexible motivational tool, support for loyalty, the option of instant online crediting, and precise control over the reward amount according to internal rules.
A reward that creates a personal reserve, builds wealth in gold, and brings a sense of recognition with lasting meaning.
Answers to the most common practical questions
The company decides on the rules of the benefit, but it's just as important that the employee knows exactly what the credited gold means for them and what they can do with it.
Yes. The benefit is credited directly to the employee's personal iiplan GOLD® account, which needs to be set up before the first gold can be credited.
The employee sets up the account themselves, simply online. When rolling out the benefit for multiple employees at once, the company works together with IBIS InGold to make the process easier and handle it centrally.
Opening an iiplan GOLD® account carries a fee known as the VCN (entry price premium), which in practice functions as a refundable fee. Other transactions – buying, withdrawing or transferring gold – are not subject to any further fee. Full terms and the current price list are available HERE.
The gold stays in their personal account, where they can leave it to appreciate over the long term, manage it at any time, or use it as they see fit – just like with any regular iiplan GOLD® account.
Yes. The employee can sell the gold at any time, transfer it to another supported account (e.g. iiplan MAX® or iiplanRentier®), or exchange it for a specific investment bar or coin and have it shipped.
Nothing changes. The credited gold is the employee's permanent personal property in their iiplan GOLD® account and is not tied to their employment in any way. After leaving the company, the employee continues to manage it freely as before.
A benefit employees naturally talk about
A satisfied employee shares an exceptional experience with family, friends and colleagues. This allows the company to strengthen its reputation through trusted recommendations, not just traditional advertising.
