Tips for Buying and Storing Gold
After reviewing today’s gold price summary, readers may find it useful to understand more closely the tips for buying and storing gold.
Citing the official Logam Mulia and Galeri 24 websites, here are several tips for buying and storing gold:
- Buy from a Trusted Source
The first tip to consider when buying gold is to purchase from a trusted source. There are various official and reputable gold boutiques available for the public to conduct gold purchase transactions. This is done to minimise the risk of buying counterfeit gold sold by irresponsible parties.
- Check Its Authenticity
Beyond buying from a trusted source, the next tip to apply is to verify the gold’s authenticity. The method is very easy and can be done online.
If the gold purchased is Antam, the QR code on its packaging can be scanned using the CertiCard application. UBS gold also has similar technology, namely scanning the QR code through the UBS Gold application.
- Ensure the Packaging Is in Good Condition
Before formally completing a gold purchase transaction, readers should first check the gold’s packaging. If any damaged packaging is found, do not hesitate to inform the staff at the place of purchase. However, packaging available at trusted outlets is usually in good condition and rarely has defects.
- Store in a Safe Place
It is also important to store gold in a safe place. Gold storage deserves extra attention because gold that is stored properly tends to maintain its quality.
At least two things can be done to store gold properly. First, do not keep it in a damp or wet place, and second, do not stack it with other heavy objects.
- Do Not Damage the Gold Packaging
Another equally important tip for buying gold is not to damage the gold packaging. Why? Certain types of gold packaging are equipped with QR code technology.
As previously explained, the QR code is needed to verify the gold’s authenticity. If the packaging is damaged, there is a risk that the QR code cannot be read, which may cause the gold’s price to fall when resold.
That is the gold price update for 20 August 2026. We hope it is useful!
