xgold.ca is an internet based currency exchange service, independant from other digital gold systems. We allow Canadians to make transfers between a gold account (at e-gold or Pecunix) and a Canadian bank account.
e-gold membership enables you to:
- Make transfers from your Canadian bank account to your gold account.
- Make transfers from your gold account to your Canadian bank account.
- Pay your bills online with gold (more than 2300 payees).
- Review the transaction history of your transfers and bills payments.
Making direct transfers between your gold and bank accounts is more efficient and allows you to avoid bank charges. Other agents who buy and sell digital gold require you to incur the expense of bank drafts, certified checks or wire transfers. Save time and money with xgold.ca!
Unlike many of our competitors, the cost of your gold in Canadian dollars is calculated in real time, when you place your order (and not at the time when the deposit is made a couple of days later). In this way,you know exactly how much will be deposited, eliminating the possible effect of fluctuations in the exchange rate.
You can transfer as little as $10 of gold for only 40 cents. xgold.ca really is the least expensive way to gold.
I want gold!
Here are the steps you need to follow to enter the wonderful world of digital gold currencies:
- Open an account with a digital gold system supported
by the xgold.ca platform (these systems have no affiliation with xgold.ca):
e-gold™ founded in 1996, was the first digital gold system
and is the most popular. Its
fees
amount to about 1% of transaction value, to a maximum of 0.05 grams (around 85 cents). e-gold also charges an
annual fee of 1% of your average daily account balance for storing your gold in its insured vault (agio fee).
If you plan to perform small transactions with a wide
range of merchants, e-gold is for you.
Pecunix has been in business since 2001. Its authentication system is among the most secure.
Fees are 0.5% of transaction value. There is no storage fee.
It's the preferred system if you want to use your gold as savings.
- Open an account with xgold.ca to allow you to buy gold with your Canadian checking account.
- When your xgold.ca account is opened, the option "Bank To Gold" allows you to buy gold. You will need to fill out the banking authorisation, sign it and send a check specimen to enable transfers from your bank account. This step is used to ensure that you are the actual owner of the bank account in question.
