Our Mission

In times of increasing economic and political uncertainty, rising national debt, and declining purchasing power, we founded Spargold with the conviction that everyone deserves access to first-class, secure, and transparent wealth protection. Our goal is to make physical precious metals accessible in a simple, digital, and reliable way – independent of banks, promises, or complex financial products. All of our clients' precious metals are stored exclusively in Singapore at the high-security vault "The Reserve" – one of the most modern, largest, and most secure precious metal facilities in the world. Singapore is considered one of the most stable countries both economically and politically, often referred to as the 'Switzerland of Asia.' Thanks to its geographic distance and legal independence, Singapore provides optimal protection for our clients' holdings against political changes in Germany or the EU. Every gram is physically allocated, fully insured, and individually assigned. We regularly visit the facility in person to review procedures and safety standards, ensuring that your property remains protected, verifiable, and free from third-party claims at all times. As a German company, we combine expertise in precious metals trading with modern technology. We understand the expectations of German investors for security, transparency, and trust – and we meet them without compromise. We see ourselves not merely as a provider, but as a long-term partner at your side. Our aim is not a short-term solution, but a sustainable investment – an asset you can continue to rely on in the future. Thank you for placing your trust in Spargold – or for considering becoming one of our valued clients. The Spargold Founders
