Alankit Imaginations Limited, a subsidiary company of Alankit, has partnered with Digital Swiss Gold (DSG), an innovative digital platform allowing investors to buy and hold physical gold digitally in Switzerland as well as sell and send gold via a mobile app. This partnership will tap into the 25million+ customer base of Alankit, and enable them to understand as well as invest in high-quality Swiss gold digitally, Alankit said in a statement.
Digital Swiss Gold provides a hassle-free experience of buying Swiss Gold for long-time savings from the comfort of one’s home, with all the benefits of gold as an investment. Investors can become a Digital Swiss Gold member by creating an account on the app within minutes and buy Swiss Gold digitally, starting from as little as 1 gram, once they complete the KYC process.
With this partnership, Alankit aims to make fractional gold ownership easy, cost-effective, safe and secure for its customers. The collaboration will offer competitive and transparent pricing, saving its customers up to 10 per cent when compared to published Indian gold prices by sourcing gold directly from Swiss refineries and eliminating middlemen.
DSG’s Swiss gold meets the highest standards of 0.9999 fineness and is compliant with all London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) gold bar specifications. All purchases are recorded permanently on a private permissioned blockchain and buyers are issued a picture of the gold bar with a serial number along with a digital warehouse receipt. The gold is audited and stored in fully insured non-bank Brink’s vaults in Zurich Switzerland.
Apart from all these benefits, through the association with Digital Swiss Gold, investors with Alankit will also get an opportunity to win gold and other rewards and discounts, refer a friend and earn a reward, and will have access to a weekly newsletter from financial experts.
