How buying gold with Bitcoin works

  1. Add gold to your cart and pick the crypto/Bitcoin payment option.
  2. Most dealers hand you a BitPay invoice, and you usually have 15 minutes to pay before the price expires.
  3. Send from a wallet that supports the invoice. Kitco, for example, says payments sent straight from exchanges like Coinbase aren't supported.
  4. Most dealers convert your BTC to dollars right away. JM Bullion says refunds go back in crypto at the new rate.

Is paying in Bitcoin cheaper?

Than a card, usually yes. On October 16, 2026 the 1 oz SD Bullion gold bar was $4,329.87 in Bitcoin vs $4,465.18 by card and $4,286.57 by wire/check. Bitcoin was about 3% below the card price and 1% above the bank price. Kitco listings showed the same pattern.
