Physical gold storage & marketplace
Buy real gold. Store it. Own it. Sell it.
Buy whole gold and silver coins and bars from approved dealers, keep them individually allocated in Loomis custody, and sell them directly to other verified owners.
How it works
Five steps from purchase to payment
Buy real gold
Order whole coins and bars from an approved dealer such as Border Gold, using your TipGoldVault alias.
Store it
Your metal is delivered to Loomis and allocated to your own sub-account, product by product.
Own it
Each product is recorded with its barcode and serial in your name. Title and custody are tracked separately.
Sell it
List one product or a bundle at a fixed price. Verified buyers commit, and you both sign one agreement.
Receive payment directly
The buyer pays you directly by Interac. TipGoldVault never holds the purchase money.
Fees
Simple, flat fees
- Vault Transfer Fee: C$36 per party per completed transfer, not per bar. A bundle of five bars costs each party C$36, the same as one coin.
- Storage: C$18 a month during the pilot. The standard rate is the greater of C$18 or 0.0833% of your holdings' value per month.
- Listing Fee: Free. You only pay when a transfer completes.
Example: 5 × 1 g Gold Bars
- Seller price
- C$1,000
- Vault Transfer Fee
- C$36
- Effective buyer cost
- C$1,036
C$1,000 + C$36 = C$1,036
You pay exactly C$1,000 directly to the seller. TipGoldVault bills the C$36 Vault Transfer Fee separately.
