Liv Gold Account

A savings account denominated in gold rather than dirhams. Buy from 0.001 XAU at live rates, hold it fee-free, or take delivery as physical gold.

Open account

Opened from inside the Liv app. You need a Liv Primary Account first.

Staff code
KREDIT

Liv asks for this on the Contact details screen when you open your account.

The Liv Gold Account is a gold holding priced in XAU rather than dirhams. The minimum purchase is 0.001 XAU, a thousandth of a troy ounce, recently around AED 15, bought at the live rate shown before you confirm. There is no tiering, so no balance level changes what the account offers.

The account pays no interest and no profit share. The holding gains and loses with the gold price. If the objective is a return on savings rather than exposure to a metal, a Goal Account pays a published rate and carries no price risk.

Benefits

Fractional From 0.001 XAU

About AED 15 at recent rates, so the entry price is not the barrier

XAU is a troy ounce of gold, so 0.001 XAU is a thousandth of an ounce. You buy an amount of metal rather than a number of dirhams, at the live rate shown before you confirm.

24/7 Trading

Buy and sell 24/7 in the Liv app, not just market hours

Pricing follows international spot markets. You fund a purchase by transferring from your AED account, and selling credits AED back to it.

Physical Gold Delivery

Convert your holding to gold and have it delivered

Choose a weight in the app and Liv arranges home delivery of certified gold. This is what separates the Gold Account from the Silver one, which is digital only.

No Holding Fees

No account, maintenance or transfer fee, and no minimum balance

There is no custody or vaulting charge for holding the metal. Your cost is the spread between the buy and sell price at the moment you trade.

Fees

Liv charges nothing to hold gold: no maintenance fee, no transfer fee, no custody or vaulting charge, and no minimum balance. The cost of the account is the conversion spread applied to the trade amount, which Liv puts at approximately 0.75% and varies from time to time.

That is charged on the way in and again on the way out, so a round trip costs roughly 1.5% of the amount traded. The exact figure for any given trade is on the order confirmation in the app, and on a small holding traded often it will exceed anything a monthly fee would have come to.

Account fees

Good to know

Getting value out

The account carries restrictions a savings account does not. There are no ATM withdrawals, and XAU cannot be transferred outward to anyone outside Liv, Emirates NBD or Emirates Islamic. Gold in this account cannot be sent to another institution as gold. To take value out, the holding is sold back to dirhams or converted to physical delivery.

Physical delivery

A holding can be converted into physical gold and delivered. Choose a weight in the app and Liv arranges delivery of certified gold. This is what separates the Gold Account from the Silver Account, which is digital-only, and it is the reason to choose Liv over a purely synthetic exposure if holding the metal matters.

Frequently asked questions

Get answers to common questions about the Liv Gold Account

0.001 XAU — a thousandth of a troy ounce, around AED 15 at recent rates. There is no minimum balance to keep the account open.

No. It holds gold rather than dirhams, so your return is whatever the gold price does. There is no rate, and no profit share either.

Nothing recurring. There is no maintenance, transfer or custody fee and no minimum balance. Your cost is the spread between the buy and sell price when you trade.

Yes. Choose a weight in the app and Liv arranges delivery of certified gold to your address. The Silver Account does not offer this.

No. There are no ATM withdrawals from a gold account, and you cannot transfer XAU to anyone outside Liv, Emirates NBD or Emirates Islamic. Sell it back to AED first.

Yes, within five business days of opening. Tell the Bank inside that window to cancel.

A conversion spread of approximately 0.75% on the trade amount, charged on both the buy and the sell. There are no fees on top of it, and your order confirmation in the app shows the exact figure.

No. There is no custody or vaulting fee, no maintenance fee and no minimum balance. Holding costs nothing; trading costs the spread.

No. Outward transfers of XAU are not permitted outside Liv, Emirates NBD and Emirates Islamic. You either sell back to dirhams or take physical delivery.

Choose a weight in the app and Liv arranges delivery of certified gold to your address. This is the main difference from the Silver Account, which is digital only.

No. There is no tiering — the terms are the same at 0.001 XAU as at any larger amount, and nothing about the product rewards a larger balance.

They answer different questions. Gold gives exposure to a metal price and pays nothing; a Goal Account pays a published rate with no price risk. Fee-free framing makes it easy to confuse the two.
