Question 1

What exactly am I reserving?

Accepted Answer

A place in the founding series of the AVORA Card, and a card tier. You are not opening a bank account — no money is held, moved or spent at this stage. Reserving costs nothing at every tier, and the card itself is paid for when it is issued.

Question 2

What can I actually do today?

Accepted Answer

Choose a tier, create an account and reserve a card. That is Phase 1, and it is the only phase that is live. Identity verification, the virtual card, the app and everything after are marked Coming soon or Future vision on the roadmap, with no date attached to the last three phases.

Question 3

When will I get the card?

Accepted Answer

There is no shipping date, and any site that gives you one for a product at this stage is guessing. The founding series is produced once it closes; members are told when production starts and when it moves. You will see the delay as it happens rather than after it.

Question 4

Why join now instead of at launch?

Accepted Answer

Four things close with the founding series: the series mark on the card, the launch price held for the life of the membership, first position in every release queue, and the founding member channel. Everything else on the site will still be available later.

Question 5

What happens to the price I reserve at?

Accepted Answer

On the paid tiers it is held for as long as the membership runs without a break. If the published price rises, it rises for members who join then. The Founder tier is one payment with no monthly fee at all, and it stops being offered when the founding series closes.

Question 6

You list twenty-six products. Do they exist?

Accepted Answer

Three of them are part of Phase 1. The other twenty-three are on later phases and every one of their pages is marked Coming soon or Future vision. They describe how something is intended to work, not how it works today.

Question 7

Is this a real bank?

Accepted Answer

No. AVORA is a demonstration project. It holds no banking licence, is not regulated, is not audited, insures nothing and sells nothing. Every figure, card, balance and product on this site is illustrative and must not be relied upon for any financial decision.
