Why Buy Precious Metals?
Physical precious metals (gold and silver) can play a key role in a long-term wealth strategy.
- Portfolio diversification: Physical metals behave differently from equities, bonds, and cash, helping reduce overall portfolio risk.
- Protection against inflation and economic crises: Gold and silver have been used for centuries as stores of value and may help preserve purchasing power over time.
- Guaranteed quality and purity: The Royal Canadian Mint operates some of the world’s most reputable refineries (ISO 9001 and LBMA certified) and guarantees the weight and purity of every coin and bar.
- Anti-counterfeiting technology: Gold and Silver Maple Leaf products incorporate DNA technology (Digital Non-Destructive Activation), micro-engraved security marks, and radial line finishes, making counterfeiting extremely difficult.
- Estate planning and wealth transfer: Physical metals are easy to transfer in estate or trust contexts and hold internationally recognized value.
How Does the Purchase Process Work?
We offer a simple, structured, and transparent purchasing process based on the spot price of the metal at the time of confirmation.
- Account opening – Registration online or by phone. Identity verification and collection of required compliance and billing information.
- Price request – You contact an advisor to obtain a real-time price, including transportation costs and, if applicable, storage fees.
- Order confirmation – We confirm the products, quantities, and pricing. Any transaction between the client and Royal Canadian Mint constitutes a legally binding contract.
- Payment – Payment is required within a maximum of 36 business hours following confirmation. Accepted payment methods include bank wire transfer, Desjardins AccèsD, and Interac e-Transfer, according to the provided payment instructions.
- Shipping or storage – Upon receipt of payment, orders are shipped within 5–8 business days via secure transport or transferred to a GardaWorld storage facility.
As outlined in our terms and conditions, an administrative fee of $250 applies in the event of cancellation, in addition to any market loss if the metal price has declined below the confirmed order price.
How Does Secure Storage Work?
Rather than storing your metals at home, you may choose to store them in a secure GardaWorld vault:
- Exclusive partnership with GardaWorld: Highly secure, audited, and third-party-certified vaults with global access.
- Comprehensive insurance coverage: Insurance underwritten by Lloyd’s of London, with no per-item value cap.
- Outside the banking system: Your metals are stored independently from financial institutions.
- Individually allocated and numbered lots: Dedicated storage locations facilitate auditing and resale.
- Simplified resale: If you decide to sell, the transaction can be executed directly from the vault, with no delivery fees or travel required.
To reserve storage space through GardaWorld, or to learn more, call 1-877-222-0142 or email [email protected].
An alternative option is to store your precious metals directly through your bank; we recommend contacting your financial institution for further details.
