Storage Facilities
In order to eliminate counter-party risk, we store all our clients bullion in independent approved bullion vaults in the UK. The majority of
1 kilo gold bars or smaller are held by Via Mat International in London and full market bars (
12.5 kilo gold bars) can also be held in the Bank of England in London. You will receive a certificate of ownership which specifies the serial numbers of your bars and the location of storage. Delivery of stored gold bullion can be requested at any time (delivery costs will apply).
Delivery
We can arrange UK delivery at a cost of £ 32.50 incl VAT for a kilo bar. Rates for full market bars are quoted on a bespoke basis, depending on the exact delivery address details and exact weight of consignment. We can also arrange for international storage and delivery for clients investing over £ 30,000.
Payment Methods
For gold and silver being kept in our storage vault, payment can be made by debit cards or by bank transfer. Where bullion is required for delivery, the payment method must be by bank transfer. Where possible, we recommend giving our customer services team 1 days notice of placing orders for £ 300,000+.
Guaranteed Buy Back
There is a guaranteed buy back at 98% of the
gold spot price for all bullion kept in our storage. For Full market bars that have been kept in storage, the buy back rate can be as high as 99.7% of the spot price, depending on market conditions. For gold taken out of our storage facility, extra costs are incurred when being bought back, to handle the logistics, assay the gold and confirm the purity and condition of the bullion.
Proof of ID
Proof of ID is required - in the form of one piece of photographic evidence (passport of drivers licence) and two utility bills, to prove your address (utility bills, bank statement, credit card statement). Additional documents are required if the purchases are made by a company.
