    A first-time buyer’s path: verify your profile, lock a live price, and choose vault storage or insured delivery.

    Start with one ounce, done properly

    The first purchase is often the hardest: which product, vault or delivery, and how the price is locked. Aurevia’s path is deliberately simple. You verify your identity, view a live gold price, choose a bar or coin, and decide whether the metal stays in allocated storage or ships under insurance.

    You do not need a family-office-sized order. A single ounce in your name, with a storage statement and a buyback path, is a complete holding. You can add to it later.

    A one-ounce gold bar for a first purchase

    Before you buy

    • Complete identity and source-of-funds checks
    • Decide whether you want vault storage or delivery
    • Compare the product premium on small bars versus coins
    • Read how buyback works while the metal is still in the vault

    The first-order sequence

    1. Create an account and verify your profile.
    2. Choose a 1 oz bar or coin against the live price.
    3. Settle the purchase.
    4. Keep the metal in allocated storage, or request insured delivery.
    5. Save the holding confirmation with the serial or coin details.
    The first ounce is not a trophy. It is the moment you move from talking about gold to owning it.

    Allocated storage is what we wanted: serial-numbered bars in our name, with a clear right to inspect or take delivery.

    The vault buyback path is the part most dealers skip. Being able to sell without shipping bars first is why we keep the reserve allocated.

    We started with a single ounce, then added kilo bars once the first holding statement arrived. The process is slower than a bank app, and that is the point.
