Goldwise Holdings Limited, trading as Goldwise, is a financial technology company based in the United Kingdom.
The company operates a proprietary trading engine and distributes its products and services to direct customers via web and mobile applications and to Fintech & wealth platform clients through GoldwiseConnect, an application programming interface (API)-based infrastructure that enables wealth platforms to offer physical precious metals trading to their customers embedded within their platform.
The engine allows customers to buy, manage and sell fractional amounts of investment-grade, responsibly sourced physical precious metals, including gold, silver, platinum, and palladium.
History
Goldwise was founded and incorporated by Gareth Tucker and Jatin Patel in February 2021.
Both co-founders previously held senior roles at The Royal Mint; Tucker served as Head of Direct-to-Consumer and Patel as Head of Wealth Management.[1]
The company raised over £500,000 in seed funding from the Wales Angel Co-Fund, managed by Development Banc of Wales, and from a syndicate of business angels.
The seed investment formed part of a broader first funding round of £1.6 million, intended to support the UK market launch, customer acquisition, and product development in preparation for international expansion.[2][3]
Products and services
Goldwise operates two principal lines of business: a direct-to-consumer trading platform and a business-to-business infrastructure service called GoldwiseConnect.
Trading Platform (D2C)
In April 2026, Goldwise launched its trading platform and infrastructure to the public. The launch was covered by financial and fintech publications including CityAM and Fintech Futures.[4][5][6]
The platform allows direct customers to buy, manage and sell fractional amounts, in units of 0.001 troy ounces of physical precious metals including gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, through mobile applications.
Orders are executed against aggregated liquidity from institutional metals banks and brokers, and metals are stored in independently audited, insured vaults.
Customer funds are held in safeguarded accounts with regulated institutions.
Precious metals sourced through the platform are described by the company as originating from London Bullion Market Association (LBMA)-approved refineries.[7]
Key features of the platform include 24/7 trading, institutional prices, conditional order functionality, portfolio valuation tools, price alerts, and technical charting.
Goldwise Connect (B2B2C)
In May 2026, Goldwise also launched GoldwiseConnect, an infrastructure service the company describes as “Precious Metals as-a-Service.”[8]
The service is designed to enable third-party wealth platforms — including banks, investment platforms, and fintech providers — to integrate physical precious metals trading into their own products via application programming interfaces (APIs).
GoldwiseConnect provides access to live institutional pricing, trade execution, physical allocation and custody arrangements, and account management & recordkeeping systems through a single API integration. The service is positioned as a means for wealth platforms and new front-end applications including AI based solutions to offer precious metals to their customers without building the underlying trading infrastructure themselves.
The company has cited a 2026 research paper by Boston Consulting Group and the World Gold Council as a re-enforcement of the gap in wealth platforms’ access to physical precious metals infrastructure.
Product roadmap
The company has stated plans to expand its product range to include additional precious metals formats such as whole coins and bars, additional vault locations, and support for additional currencies.[7]
Industry affiliations
Goldwise is listed as a member of FinTech Wales and Innovate Finance.[3]
Regulation
The purchase and sale of physical precious metals in the United Kingdom is not a regulated investment activity under the framework of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Goldwise therefore does not operate under FCA authorisation in respect of its precious metals trading activities. It does however, operate as eMoney distributor (EMD) and is under the FCA licencing of PayrNet Limited.
