Frequently asked questions
Do I own the precious metals I buy on HKKO?
You own 100% of the products you buy on HKKO. All your stored products are physically kept in our secure vaults and off our balance sheet, so you remain their unique legal owner even if HKKO were to cease its business activities.
Indeed, HKKO only sells allocated precious metals that belong entirely to you. Other resellers can sell “mutualized” gold, often as a 12.5 kg bar shared with other customers. Although a part of it technically belongs to you, it can be difficult to resell and is usually not available to redeem. Some resellers even sell “paper gold”, which is not physical gold itself but an asset reflecting the price of gold and not necessarily backed by real physical gold.
Is there any guarantee for my purchases on HKKO?
All precious metals bars sold on HKKO are sealed and come with a purity certificate. We also provide a downloadable certificate of ownership for each stored product and a printable invoice with each purchase. This way, you always have paper proof of your ownership.
Minted bars come with the CertiPAMP packaging which serves as their purity certificate. We advise leaving these products in their sealed packaging to ensure the validity of their purity certificate.
Some of our products also come with the Veriscan technology, an MKS PAMP SA application used to securely identify precious metals products and their purity.
What is the quality of the products on HKKO?
Our precious metals bars and coins come directly from the most reputable mints and have undergone extensive quality control.
What is HKKO Pay?
HKKO Pay is our instant payment and withdrawal solution. It is a free and secure way to manage your funds on HKKO. Before an order, top it up with a simple wire transfer and use it as a secure payment method. When you sell a stored product on HKKO, your funds will be directly added to your HKKO Pay. You can then use your funds to place a new order or send them back to your personal bank account.
If the funds on your HKKO Pay don’t cover the full price of an order, you can simply use your saved credit cards during checkout to pay the remainder!.

What are the fees and commissions when I buy, store, or sell on HKKO?
Like any precious metals reseller, we charge a margin (also called “premium”) on each product, it's the part of the price that covers our costs and reseller's margin.

Why should I save in gold in 2023?
While the gold price has seen fluctuations in 2021, it has increased by over 50% in the past 5 years, and gold has historically performed well in times of inflation and economic uncertainty.
Today, investors often buy gold for two reasons. First, to secure their savings instead of leaving their money in a savings account to be eaten away by inflation. Then, to diversify their portfolio and protect it against risks they might take elsewhere (stocks, cryptocurrencies, real estate, etc.)
Many buyers also choose to save gold on a regular basis to smooth out the changes in price that can happen in the short to medium term.
Saving in gold is a way to secure your savings and build wealth on the long term..
