Redeem a Watch : https://openchrono.io/redeem After submitting, you will need to go through our KYC process and pay for shipping and taxes. The digital twin will be put in escrow until the item gets delivered to your address. Once the item is delivered, the digital twin is put into a 'soul-bound' state.

All redeemed assets are shipped via a trusted carrier and fully insured in transit. We will provide a cost estimation for shipping and redemption taxes with an invoice prior to executing the redemption.

Can I redeem both my physical watch and the "digital twin"?

No. As long as a user keeps the digital twin, OpenChrono will maintain custody of the physical asset in a secure vault. This is to ensure that the digital twin is backed by a physical asset. If a user decides to receive the physical asset, we will burn the corresponding digital twin.

Our secure storage partner Malca-Amit is globally active and has delivery partners in the majority of countries. Feel free to contact us if you have any concerns regarding the ability to ship to your country and location.

Do I need to pay fees when redeeming the physical asset?

Users who wish to redeem their physical asset will have to pay a shipping fee as well as custom fees and/or sales taxes depending on their country of residence.

Import Taxes

Customers outside of the UK are required to pay customs & import taxes in line with your individual countries import taxation laws. Please consult local authorities for accurate information

How quickly can I get my physical asset when I redeem?

This will depend on your shipping location. Packages in the United Kingdom will generally arrive within 3-5 business days of invoice processing, while shipping outside of the UK may take longer depending on general shipping timelines to your country.
