What is a Holding?
To buy precious metals with GoldMoney, you first need to open a Holding, which is the digital customer file where the ownership of your metal and your transactions are recorded. We have deliberately chosen the word ‘Holding’ instead of ‘Account’ to make it clear to our customers that they own the metal and it is held in their name. GoldMoney does not charge a fee when you first sign up or when you upgrade from a Basic to a Full Holding.
GoldMoney Holding Types
Customers resident in any of the above countries can choose between two types of Holding: Basic and Full. Basic Holdings are easier to set up due to lighter regulatory requirements, but offer less functionality than Full Holdings. Please have a look at the overview below to find the solution that best suits your requirements:

Security and integrity
As a company regulated by the Jersey Financial Services Commission, GoldMoney complies with anti-money laundering legislation, which requires GoldMoney to know the identity and residential address of each of its customers. We make use of a Customer Acceptance Policy (CAP), to ensure the security and integrity of the GoldMoney system. More information about the CAP and how to sign up for your GoldMoney Holding can be found in our CAP FAQ.
Joint Holdings
You can also open a Basic or Full Holding together with someone else, for example your spouse. Holdings for individuals under the age of 18 must be joint Holdings in the names of the child and a parent or legal guardian of the child. To open a joint Holding, please follow the instructions given during the sign-up process. It is as easy as opening up a Holding for an individual person.
Open your free Holding now
To get started, just sign-up for free and follow the simple online sign-up process for a Basic Holding.

GoldMoney accepts credit unions as a means for customers resident in the UK, Ireland, Germany or France to fund both Basic and Full Holdings.
