Selling silver via GoldRepublic

Have you purchased silver through GoldRepublic? Then you can sell it back to us at any time.

There are various reasons why you might want to do this. Perhaps you want to take profit after a rise in the price of silver.

Different types of orders

When you sell silver through GoldRepublic, you have the option of placing different types of orders.

  • Market order: With a market order, you sell your silver immediately at the current purchase price offered by GoldRepublic. The transaction is executed instantly at the best available price at that time. This is the fastest and most direct way to sell your silver.
  • Limit order: With a limit order, you determine the minimum price at which you want to sell. The order will only be executed once the silver price reaches or exceeds the limit you have entered. This allows you to remain in control, but it may mean that your order will not be executed immediately if the silver market price does not meet your conditions.
  • Order based on amount: You can choose to set a sell order for a specific amount of money. In that case, the platform automatically calculates how much silver needs to be sold at that moment to realise the specified amount, based on the current silver price.
  • Order based on bar volume: It is also possible to place an order based on a specific volume of silver, for example a number of kilograms or specific silver bars. This is particularly useful if you want to sell a specific part of your silver position, regardless of the proceeds.

Costs of selling silver

Are you selling your silver back to GoldRepublic? Then you will receive the current silver bid price for it. The bid price is slightly lower than the current market price.

You will also pay 1% transaction costs on your sold silver. This amount will be deducted automatically and the remaining amount will be paid into your GoldRepublic account. You can then (or later) reinvest this in another precious metal via GoldRepublic or simply transfer it back to your bank account.

How is the selling price of silver determined?

The selling price of silver at GoldRepublic continuously follows the international silver markets. This price fluctuates constantly under the influence of supply and demand. We use completely transparent pricing, so you always receive a fair price.

However, as with gold, there is a difference between the purchase and selling price of silver (bid and ask price).

This difference is called the spread and is caused by the margin applied by suppliers and providers and the market dynamics of supply and demand.

 That is why you receive slightly less than the current price when you sell and pay slightly more when you buy.

Have you purchased gold and/or platinum through GoldRepublic in addition to gold? The buy-back guarantee also applies to the sale of gold and sale of platinum, provided that you have purchased these precious metals through GoldRepublic.
