Founder and owner
Since the early '80s, Harald Seiz trained and worked as an independent financial services provider with a number of companies, where he was very successful. During the mid-90s he reached 60 million in sales. In 2008, he joined a precious metals company. In just seven months Harald Seiz was the top salesperson for the company.

However, his visions were larger than those of the company, which was only active in Germany. He wanted to create gold in small units available for everyone, worldwide.

In 2011, Harald Seiz founded Karatbars International GmbH. The company specializes in the sale of small, currency-sized 1, 2.5 and 5 gram gold  bullion bars.  In addition to the standard gold cards, specialty cards serve as wonderful gifts. Companies are printing their own cards and using them as rewards and incentives for their employees.
