How does DigiGold work?

The Royal Mint buys large bars and stores them securely within The Vault®. Subject to a minimum order value of £25 you can purchase fractions of these bars to the nearest 0.001 oz, but unlike buying Coins or Royal Mint Refinery (RMR) bars it enables you to purchase gold, silver and platinum based on value rather than weight e.g. £25 instead of a 1 oz coin or bar.

When you purchase Digital precious metals you own it and have legal title to it, with The Royal Mint acting as a custodian, meaning that we don’t have any direct claim on the gold you’ve purchased. This gives you the assurance that your gold, silver and platinum is protected.
