How does DigiGold work?
The Royal Mint holds large, investment-grade gold bars securely in The Vault®. You can purchase a fraction of these bars from as little as £25, in increments of 0.001 oz. This means you can invest based on the amount you want to spend, rather than having to purchase a whole coin or bar.
When you purchase DigiGold, you own the gold and have legal title to it, with The Royal Mint acting as custodian. Your investment is backed by physical, investment-grade gold stored securely in The Royal Mint’s vault. The gold is not lent, leased or otherwise used by The Royal Mint.
You can buy and sell your DigiGold online. As your holding represents a fraction of a larger gold bar, it cannot be delivered to you as physical gold.
