If you want cash for gold without haggling at a counter, our postal service is the fastest route. Request a free recycling pack, send your gold to us with Royal Mail Special Delivery, and we assay every item by XRF, the same X-ray fluorescence method used by professional refiners, so your offer is based on exactly what your gold contains.

Your offer is calculated from the daily London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) spot price and the weight and purity of your gold. Accept it and we pay you within a minute by Faster Payments, straight to your bank. No appointments, no high-street mark-down.

You might also find our guides on selling gold, selling scrap gold and how we value your gold helpful.
