Frequently Asked Questions
BullionByPost is no longer accepting cash payments at our trade counter.
Tightening regulations in compliance with HM Revenues & Customs anti-money-laundering guidelines, as well as a cultural decline in the amount of customers spending physical cash, has led us to this decision. We apologise for any inconvenience.
We accept online payments with credit cards up to £10,000 and debit cards up to the value of £30,000. Please note this limit may change but notice will be given to customers. Payments cannot be split across multiple cards.
Alternatively, many customers find the easiest way to pay us is by bank transfer, either in branch or using online banking, but we also accept personal cheques. Cheques require 4 working days to clear prior to dispatch. We do not accept cash payments.

ID will be requested if we cannot verify your address via 192 or GBG. Once provided, our Compliance Team will assess the documents and, if approved, we will proceed with your order.
Our Compliance Team may also ask for one or more forms of ID for large orders, or if you have a high cumulative order value. We are required to keep identification to comply with HM Revenue and Customs regulations. The standard documents we ask for scans or photographs of are as follows:

3D authentication / 3D secure is managed by Visa (Verified by Visa) and Mastercard (Mastercard Identity Check) themselves. It is a worldwide security program that many banks and building societies opt into. Given the nature of our products, we have to ensure the highest level of security available and therefore can only accept card payments that go through this additional security process.

The global spot price for gold is based on inter-bank transfers of large numbers of London Good Delivery Bars which are 12.5 kilograms each. This price is only available to large banks and does not include any brokerage fees, transportation, storage or insurance.
Smaller bars are always sold at a premium to the London spot price to reflect the additional costs of producing and testing smaller bars. Our premiums are extremely competitive and are lowest on our larger bars.
