How selling gold online works

If you'd rather not carry gold to a shop, you can sell it to us entirely online. Request your free pack on this site, post your gold with Royal Mail Special Delivery, and track it every step of the way. There is no shop visit and no courier to wait in for.

Your parcel is tracked, signed for and insured to £750, and you keep your proof of posting. We assay your gold by XRF, make a transparent offer based on the LBMA spot price, and pay you within a minute of acceptance by Faster Payments.

You might also find our guides on safety and security, how it works and selling gold near you helpful.

Is it safe to post gold?

Yes. Royal Mail Special Delivery is tracked and signed for, your parcel is insured to £750, and you keep proof of posting. We recommend splitting higher values across separate insured bags.

How is my parcel insured?

Each Special Delivery bag is insured to £750. For amounts worth more than that, we send extra bags so the whole shipment stays covered.

What if my parcel is lost?

Tracked, signed-for parcels are rarely lost, and the Special Delivery insurance plus your proof of posting protect you up to the insured value if the worst happens.

How do I get paid?

Once you accept our online offer we pay by Faster Payments, usually reaching your bank within a minute.
