DelValley Silver, Inc. uses a silver token system to value a merchant's products and/or services. The consumer purchases silver tokens at a wholesale price that is tied to the market price of silver. The consumer in turn spends their DelValley silver tokens at their community merchant who accepts the tokens at the value the Merchant agrees is fair.

For example, if the 1 oz. DelValley silver rounds are selling for a wholesale price of $20.00 each, each merchant can decide what market value or "coupon" value they would accept the token for. It is a flexible and free market approach to doing business.

If you run a hotel and most of your rooms are unoccupied, you may want to accept fewer tokens in exchange for a night. On the other hand, if it's a holiday weekend maybe you'd want to require more tokens.

Either way, the use of trade tokens helps to eliminate the problem of direct trading, allows consumers and other merchants confidence in valuing products and/or services and helps to expand consumer and merchant trading opportunities.

Our merchant base expands when an existing member refers other businesses to join. The more businesses that participate, the larger our outreach will be for spreading the concept of asset based trading. For every merchant that signs up with a one year membership, that person referring the new business receives 4 ounces of silver to spend at that merchant’s facility.
