There is no minimum deposit required to establish your account, therefore you can open your account and fund it over time until you’re ready to make a purchase. If you want to buy metal in smaller amounts, we also offer the MetalStream™ service, which allows you to designate a specific purchase of gold or silver each month with a monthly contribution of $100 or more. 

Your monthly purchases build toward either 1-oz. gold bars or 100-oz. silver bars, or a combination of both. The exact allocation to gold and silver in your account is completely up to you. Once you've bought an equivalent amount of metal, you can convert your position to a fully allocated bar in your account. MetalStream is 100% free to set up, and you can turn the feature on and off at will.
 

Payments are made to customers in US dollars. If you have an existing foreign bank account, we can wire the funds to that bank. That account should be set up in advance in the standing wire instructions for your account.
 

Cash in your account is not FDIC-insured, and it does not bear interest. Your metal holdings, however, are insured for their full replacement value. Cash in your account is held by a major bank in a Hard Assets Alliance subaccount of Gold Bullion International.
 

Orders placed outside market hours are automatically converted to an "under" order. This ensures your order will not be executed for a dollar amount greater than you intended in the event that market prices move during off-hours.
