Your own connection
Contact without local cables or masts.
Satellite internet and pre-agreed contact steps, tested before you need them.
Private emergency provision
Stay reachable
and pay independently.
Sovaryn sets up a private emergency provision for wealthy private individuals, entrepreneurs and families: satellite internet, your own power, a satellite phone and a hardware wallet for your self-managed digital reserve.

01 / Vulnerability
When systems
do not cooperate.
A prolonged outage makes clear how dependent wealth, businesses and families are on banks, providers and apps. Money may be available, but temporarily out of reach. Decisions then need to be made with care, with connection, information and room to act.
- 01International
International transfers that stall, are delayed or restricted
- 02Wealth
Wealth that exists, but is temporarily not freely available
- 03Business
Salaries, suppliers and obligations that continue while systems are down
- 04Abroad
Being abroad when Dutch systems fail or cards are blocked
- 05Family
Family, children and key people spread across countries, without a reliable connection
- 06Dependence
Dependence on one bank, provider, app or access method
Preparation brings calm.
Especially when reachability becomes scarce.
02 / The setup

Discover how Sovaryn Reserve works ↗
Why satellite internet, portable power, solar panel, satellite phone and hardware wallet?
Access to funds
A reserve that a bank cannot block.
A hardware wallet for your self-managed digital reserve, with your own connection and power to use it.
International access
Continue to pay outside the Netherlands with your own resources.
Pre-tested connection, power and step-by-step plan for your own banking app and digital reserve, within the rules.
Act independently
Power, step-by-step plan and control.
Your own power for important devices and a rehearsed step-by-step plan for your family or organisation.
Availability depends on coverage, providers, power and working services. That is why we configure the devices and step-by-step plan, and test the whole setup.
03 / Situations
What keeps working?
Concrete situations in which the Sovaryn safety net gives you more options to act. Choose a situation.
SCENARIO 01SIMULATION
Nationwide banking outage
A major outage or digital attack affects several banks and payment systems at the same time. Your money still exists, but you temporarily cannot access it through the usual route.
THE MOMENT
Cards are declined. Cash withdrawals and transfers do not work. Business obligations and scheduled transactions also continue.
THE SOVARYN SAFETY NET
A dedicated connection, mobile power, a hardware wallet and a practised step-by-step plan reduce dependence on a single affected banking app, connection or power supply.
Practical example: Ukraine, 24 February 2022 ↗04 / Practical example
To the house
in the Alps.
A Dutch family temporarily relocates to their own holiday home in the French Alps, about a ten-hour drive away. The complete Sovaryn Reserve travels in one car, including connection, power, solar panel, satellite phone, hardware wallet for the digital reserve and personal step-by-step plan.
Everything comes with you
What happens
The family leaves with fully charged batteries, documents, hardware wallet and the pre-configured set in the boot.
The Sovaryn safety net
The Sovaryn safety net has been tested for starting, connecting and paying. On the road, coverage, charge level and local rules remain decisive.
Fuel and groceries
What happens
At a petrol station, the usual card is declined. Groceries are also needed for the evening.
The Sovaryn safety net
The banking app can be tried via your own connection. This only works if your bank and the relevant payment networks are functioning.
Connecting in the mountain village
What happens
Mobile coverage in the village is weak. The banking app loads slowly and video calls with parents are not stable.
The Sovaryn safety net
The satellite internet dish is placed outside with a clear view of the sky. Mountains, buildings and weather can limit the connection.
Storm brings systems down
What happens
After a storm and snowfall, power and the mobile network fail. The cash machine and card terminals in the village do not work.
The Sovaryn safety net
The large battery powers the router and phone for as long as it has charge. The solar panel helps recharge it, but output depends on light and positioning.
The Netherlands remains reachable
What happens
The mortgage has to be paid, staff expect their salary and parents in the Netherlands want to know where the family is.
The Sovaryn safety net
Via the satellite connection, the banking app, email and contact with the bank, office and family remain accessible. Payment only works where your bank, the recipient and the law allow it.
No guarantee against failure. But more room to act. Sovaryn tests the equipment in advance, taking it in the car and whether the connection works on site.
05 / Sovaryn Crisis Link
When ordinary connections disappear,
one line stays open.
Your Sovaryn Reserve can be expanded with a satellite phone. It does not call via local masts, but directly via satellites. Sovaryn has its own device on the same satellite network, so direct contact can remain possible when the mobile network and internet in your area fail.
Why the line often keeps working
A satellite phone does not use a local mast. Outdoors, with a clear view of the sky, the device connects directly to satellites. This means it can make calls and send messages when your ordinary phone has no network.
Sovaryn has a device on the same satellite network. This fixed contact line with Sovaryn is more reliable than calling an ordinary phone, because that ordinary phone remains dependent on the recipient’s local network.
Where others cannot reach anyone at that moment, you speak to Sovaryn directly: you say where you are and what you need, and together you take the next step from your personal step-by-step plan. A clear view, a charged battery, an active subscription and a working satellite network remain necessary.
01Direct crisis link
A preset contact with Sovaryn, without local masts or internet.
02Tested periodically
Test calls and checks of the device, subscription, battery and agreed contact steps.
03Mobile to use
Compact in the car set and usable in the Netherlands and beyond.
A clear view of the sky, power and a working satellite network remain necessary. That is why we do not speak of absolute reachability, but of an additional way to stay in contact.

A second home only works as a fallback after preparation
Your own holiday home can offer peace of mind as a place to go to temporarily. But a house in, for example, the French Alps is only truly usable if you can pay, communicate and have power there. That requires preparation on site.

One supplier can affect several banks at once
A bank outage often feels like a problem at one bank. In reality, the cause may lie with a supplier in the background. In that case, a second account helps less than expected.

What the power cut in Spain and Portugal shows
The power cut on the Iberian Peninsula did not last for days, but it immediately affected daily life. Paying, travelling and staying in touch became difficult. That is precisely what makes the event instructive.

Your control should not.”
Sovaryn discreetly maps what you depend on, sets up the technical Reserve and tests that it works before you need it.
