What you ask us most often…
Where can I find a summary of my payments?
Your purchases and contract payments are listed in your customer account. If you have a savings scheme, you will also see the current price of your purchase at the time your payment was processed and how many grams have been locked in (purchased) with your payment.
Why hasn’t payment been credited to my contract?
The most common reason a payment cannot be processed is that the transaction description is missing or the contract number to which the payment is to be credited has not been specified. Check your payment and, if necessary, contact our customer service line. Once the payment has been verified and the details identifying the payment have been added, we will credit it to your contract and proceed with the purchase of the metal. The price applicable at the time the payment is processed will be the locked-in price.
How is it possible that I have an outstanding balance on a one-off purchase?
Investment bars and coins fluctuate in response to the price of precious metals on the exchange and the exchange rate. As a result, the price is updated every business day. For one-off purchases over 4 000,00 EUR, the price is locked in as soon as the payment is credited. This means there may be a price change between the date of the order and the date on which the payment is processed, which may result in an outstanding balance being calculated. Naturally, the opposite situation may also occur, where the price of gold drops and an overpayment appears for your order. This will be refunded to you.
Contract revisions
They say the only constant in life is change. Has anything changed that you need to update in your contract? You can edit your personal and contact information in your customer account. However, these changes will only be reflected in subsequent contracts you enter into. If you need to revise an iiplan® contract you have already entered into, you can modify it with an appendix.

What else do you want to know?
I have received an investment bar as a gift. How does buyback work in this case?
Buyback may be requested by the person who owns the bar or coin. Investment bars and coins are accompanied by a certificate stating their unique number (batch). We use that number to check whether these are items we have sold and, if so, we proceed with the buyback.
What do I need to submit with my buyback request?
Investment bars and coins are accompanied by certificates stating their unique number. Lighter bars are packaged so that this certificate forms an integral part of the packaging (called a ‘certicard’). The unique number is also stamped on the upper side of the bar. This is why there is no need to provide anything more than the bar or coin itself and the accompanying certificate with the batch number on it. The goods and the certificate must not be damaged.
In the buyback request, can I enter an account number different from the one specified in the contract?
Buyback is an entirely separate procedure, so the payout is not tied to the bank account specified in the purchase contract. Buyback is requested by the owner of the bar or coin, who may not be the same person as the one who made the purchase. The currency may also be different. We do not have the requirement that items can only be bought back in the currency in which they were purchased. We proceed according to the information provided in the buyback request.
What should I do if I disagree with the binding buyback price I am quoted?
If you disagree with the buyback price, you must get in touch with our customer service line within two hours of receiving our email notification of the binding buyback price. The items will then not be bought back but will immediately be returned to you at your address, marked for delivery directly to you. You are liable for the cost (postage, packaging fee and insurance according to the valid Fee and Service Price List) of returning the goods.
What’s the procedure for buyback when the bar or coin is damaged?
If items are delivered damaged, we may refuse buyback or set a lower buyback price. If you disagree with the buyback price you are quoted, you must call our customer service line or send an email within two hours of receiving our email notification of the price. The items will then not be bought back but will be returned to you at your address, marked for delivery directly to you. You are liable for the cost (postage, packaging fee and insurance according to the valid Fee and Service Price List) of returning the goods.
