Goldcore operates in your country (United States) — but holds no local license. You’d likely be onboarded under an offshore entity, which means weaker fund protection. Confirm which entity before depositing.

Review analysis AI

Goldcore is an unregulated precious metals dealer, not a forex broker. The absence of regulatory oversight means clients have no protection from financial ombudsman or compensation schemes. While the company has a long operational history, the lack of regulation carries inherent counterparty risk.

  • Buying physical gold and silver bullion
  • Allocated and segregated storage of precious metals

The company emphasizes that it is well known within the industry and frequently appears in international media such as CNBC and Bloomberg.

Account Types

According to its website, GoldCore offers a range of account types including Personal, Joint, Company/Trust, Pension, and GoldSaver accounts. The GoldSaver account is described as a way to purchase a specific amount of gold each month from as little as $100 per month.

Products and Services

GoldCore claims to allow investors to buy gold and silver for direct delivery or for secure storage in numerous high-security vaults around the world. It offers allocated and segregated storage, stating that clients have outright legal ownership of individual coins and bars and that bullion is never commingled or pooled.

Platform and Ordering

The broker describes the process to buy gold or silver for the first time as: open an account, deposit funds, order online or via phone, then decide on delivery or storage. No proprietary trading platform is mentioned, as orders are placed through the website or phone.

Global Presence

GoldCore states it has headquarters in Dublin, Ireland (Level 1, The Chase, Carmanhall Road, Sandyford, Dublin, D18 Y3X2, Ireland) and a US office at 200 Spectrum Center Drive, Suite 300, Irvine, CA 92618. The website notes that it serves investors in over 130 countries worldwide.

About Goldcore

Who is Goldcore?

Goldcore is a precious metals bullion dealer specializing in gold and silver coins and bars. The company was founded in 2003 and is headquartered in Dublin, Ireland, with a registered office in London, United Kingdom. Despite being founded over two decades ago, Goldcore is not regulated by any financial authority, which the company aligns with the unregulated nature of bullion dealing worldwide.

Goldcore operates a website at goldcore.com and maintains a presence on social media platforms including Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, and YouTube. The company serves clients in the United States and internationally, marketing itself as one of the oldest and largest bullion dealers.

Regulation and Oversight

Goldcore has no regulatory licenses from any known financial regulator. Our records show no regulators on file for this entity. This absence of regulation is a significant factor for potential clients to consider, as it means there is no external oversight of the company's operations, financial stability, or handling of client funds.

In many jurisdictions, bullion dealers are not required to be regulated in the same way as financial brokers, but this also means clients have limited recourse in the event of disputes or financial loss. The company's own FAQ acknowledges the unregulated nature of bullion dealing.

Products and Services

Goldcore primarily offers physical gold and silver bullion in the form of bars and coins. Clients can purchase precious metals for direct delivery to their home or for secure storage in various vaults around the world. The company emphasizes that it provides allocated and segregated storage, meaning each client's bullion is individually identified and not pooled with others.

In addition to one-time purchases, Goldcore offers a GoldSaver account that allows clients to make recurring monthly purchases of gold starting from $100. The company also mentions Perth Mint Certificates as an alternative way to hold gold. The product range is limited to physical precious metals; there is no offering of leveraged trading, CFDs, or forex.

Account Types and Opening

Goldcore provides several account types to cater to different client needs: Personal, Joint, Company/Trust, Pension, and GoldSaver accounts. The account opening process involves registering on the website, depositing funds, and then placing orders either online or by phone.

Once an account is opened, clients can choose to have their bullion delivered or stored. The company claims to offer fully insured storage options. The minimum purchase amount for the GoldSaver account is $100 per month, while one-time purchases have prices listed per ounce on the website.

Geographic Reach and Clients

Goldcore targets clients primarily in the United States and Ireland, with separate websites for each region (goldcore.com/us for the US and goldcore.ie for Ireland). The company states it serves investors in over 130 countries worldwide.

Although the company is based in Ireland and registered in the UK, it has a physical presence in the US with an office in Irvine, California. The client base appears to be a mix of individual investors seeking to diversify into precious metals and those looking for an inflation hedge.

Company Background

Goldcore was founded in 2003 in Dublin, Ireland. The company describes itself as one of the oldest and largest bullion dealers in the world. Its team frequently participates in industry conferences and appears in international media.

The company operates through multiple legal entities: GoldCore Limited (Ireland), GoldCore USA LLC (US), and a UK registered entity at No. 1 Cornhill, London EC3V 3ND. The UK registration date is 2019-03-22, which may reflect a later incorporation of a UK entity rather than the original founding.
