How to sell your gold
Our offer is always tied to the world market price — transparently and with pre-agreed terms.
Submit your gold
Submit your gold to us or order a free shipping kit.
You receive a precise valuation
When your gold arrives at our laboratory, it is registered and sent for assessment. We determine the content using either X-ray fluorescence (XRF) or acid analysis. We weigh the gold on a calibrated scale with 0.01g precision. The assessment is often ready the same day, and every measurement step is documented on the receipt you receive at sale.
You see the final price
You receive an offer by SMS and email. The offer includes the price per gram, weight and purity, and the exact amount. If you wish, you have three days to cancel, in which case you get your gold back free of charge.
Money in your account
Accept the purchase with one click. Payment arrives as a SEPA transfer to your bank account within 24–48 hours of acceptance.
Our pricing is built on transparency
You never pay us anything. Our fee is deducted from the amount paid out to you.

Answers to the most common questions about gold trading.
We buy all kinds of gold — jewellery, coins, bars and dental gold. We also buy silver, platinum and palladium.
No minimum — you can sell for example a single ring or earring. The maximum depends on the delivery method: the shipping kit covers up to €5,000 in value per shipment (insurance limit), but you can send multiple packages. The collection service has no restrictions.
Gold is gold — shape, purity and condition do not affect the value. We determine the purity in the laboratory, so broken, tarnished or dirty gold is valued the same way as new.
Karat indicates the purity of gold. 24 karat gold is pure gold (99.9%), 18 karat gold contains 75% gold and 14 karat gold 58.5%. The price we pay is based on the actual gold content, which we measure in the laboratory.
You can freely cancel within three days of receiving the price calculation (via SMS and email) — we won't ask why. After that, cancellation is no longer possible.
We pay via SEPA transfer. You need a bank account within the European Economic Area (EU countries + Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein). A Finnish bank account always works.
The security envelope is a sealed package that leaves visible marks if opened during transit. The envelope is only opened at the laboratory, where the opening stage is documented.
With the standard service, payment arrives within 30 days of submitting your gold. With the priority service, payment arrives within 1–4 days: transport to us takes 1–3 business days, after which you receive payment within 24 hours.
