How The Fund Works

From the broker to Auscert to the merchant
to the customer.

From May 1st 2008 all diamonds submitted for certification at Auscert will automatically have donations made for them by the participating brokers and Auscert. Once the full certificate reaches the retail level it will contain a reply paid envelope that invites (upon the sale of the diamond) the opportunity for Merchant and Purchaser to contribute their donation.

Auscert and the participating brokers have also decided further donations will be made by them for all certificates issued prior to May 1st 2008 if donations are also lodged from the retail level.

E.F.T. details will be available but we believe it will be easier to include the client's contribution within the final invoice and then for the merchant to forward a cheque for both amounts directly to the fund.

Every envelope will contain a business card to be filled out with the certificate ID number. This will give the purchaser all the necessary details they will require to track their contribution to the fund on this webpage.
