Pool Allocated Storage Facts
- Qoneco’s gold holdings are segregated and fully allocated
- Independently audited
- Sell to us or request physical delivery at any time
- Customers can request physical delivery from storage any time. Delivery charges will apply.
We believe our storage solution provides our customers with access to high security professionally managed vaults, insurance and independent audits. We strongly believe our vaulting service offers a much better solution than a safety deposit box. Bank safety deposit boxes are becoming increasingly expensive, difficult to find and do not include insurance.
Allocated Storage Fees
Storage fees are charged at 1.0% + GST per annum of the value of your total allocated gold holdings on the first business day of the month. Charges are billed monthly in arrears. Should the fees become more than 2 months in arrears, Qoneco reserves the right to deduct the fees from the gold holdings at the rates applicable at the time these invoices are raised.

| $5,000 and below | Up to $25.00 |
| $5,001 - $20,000 | $50.01 to $200 |
| $20,001 - $50,000 | $200.01 to $500 |
| $50,001 - $100,000 | $500.01 to $1000 |

Why Store your Bullion with Us?
The physical possession and control of investment is one of the key benefits of investing in physical bullion. In addition to our fully insured home delivery service we are also offering customers a high security, insured and fully allocated storage solution. Bullion in allocated and pooled allocated storage is owned fully by the investor and is placed in secured vaults for safekeeping.
We strongly believe that our pooled allocated vaulting service offers a far more secure solution to more traditional safety deposit boxes. Bank safety deposit boxes are not only scarce, but the idea of storing your bullion within a bank will for many defeat the object of owning physical gold, this therefore makes pool allocated storage an appealing option for many investors. Should you the customer not wish to take physical delivery of gold but would like to purchase allocated gold you may elect to have Qoneco store your allocated gold for you. If for whatever reason you would like the physical gold, we can arrange delivery at your request.
Pooled allocated storage with us has a wide range of benefits to the individual investor, these are explained below.
Our allocated and fully insured storage solution, gives you peace of mind that your investment is safe. Additionally, our storage facility is independently audited every year to ensure compliance to the highest level.
Choosing storage with us gives you the flexibility to buy, sell and store in one convenient place. If you are selling your bullion back to us, funds will be paid by bank transfer into your linked account which was set up when you opened your account. Physical delivery can be requested at any point, simply call us during office hours and arrangements can be made.
Our storage option allows you to own physical bullion as opposed to ‘physically backed’ or ‘unallocated’ bullion. Your stored investment will remain your legal property in individually segregated storage with Qoneco and can be requested for physical delivery at any point.
Buying and storing with us allows you to hold assets outside of an unstable banking system. Holding assets outside the financial system reduces your personal exposure to banking related risks whilst also diversifying your wealth distribution.
Barring charges cover the costs of fabricating your pool allocated gold holdings into a specific bar which you can take possession of.
The barring charges are a very simple calculation
Please see below example
Assume you hold 105g of gold bullion of Qoneco pool allocated gold holdings, worth AUD $5700.
In this case, the closest barring size is 100g at the cost of $115. After barring, your account is left with 5g of pool allocated gold.
If you wanted to convert your 100/105g of pool allocated gold into a gold bar, then the fee you would pay is $115 (inclusive of GST).
