Indigo Precious Metals Review: Segregated Storage, Fees and Selling Back (2026)

Indigo Precious Metals review: a registered Singapore dealer storing gold at Le Freeport from 0.37% a year with no minimum charge, but no order cancellation.

Investing involves risk. General information, not financial advice.

This Indigo Precious Metals review covers a Singapore dealer based at 7 Bukit Pasoh Road that sells investment-grade bars and coins in gold, silver, platinum and other metals, and stores clients’ metal at Le Freeport. As at November 2026, it charges 0.37% a year to store gold worth under US$100,000, with no minimum charge, and offers live online buy-back prices for stored metal.

Indigo Precious Metals Pte. Ltd. is on the Ministry of Law’s list of registered dealers under the Precious Stones and Precious Metals Act (PS20190001114, list at the time of writing (November 2026)). Registration covers anti-money-laundering controls only: the Ministry of Law does not regulate a dealer’s prices, storage or finances, and registration is not a licence from MAS. Gold prices can fall as well as rise; past performance is not a guide; gold pays no interest.

What Indigo Precious Metals Offers

Its site lists investment-grade bars and coins in gold, silver, platinum, palladium and rhodium, plus copper, collectibles, bullion jewellery and Indigo Gram Savings. You can order online or visit its office at Bukit Pasoh Road (Monday to Friday 10.30am to 7pm, Saturday 10am to 3pm).

Premiums vary by product and are shown as prices. Check any quote against the spot price with the gold premium calculator. Collectibles and jewellery are not investment precious metals, so GST applies; see GST on gold.

Indigo Precious Metals Review of Storage Fees as at November 2026

Fees effective 1 February 2024, charged daily on the value held and billed quarterly in arrears:

Value held (US$) Gold Silver Platinum
Under 100,000 0.37% 0.58% 0.40%
100,000 to 249,999 0.33% 0.55% 0.37%
250,000 to 499,999 0.28% 0.53% 0.33%
500,000 to 999,999 0.23% 0.48% 0.30%
1 million to 4,999,999 0.22% 0.42% 0.25%

The page says there are “No Minimum Charges” and that Indigo may change storage costs with one month’s notice. It does not mention GST on storage. Withdrawals need 48 hours’ notice; the storage page lists no withdrawal fee.

The short version: fully segregated storage in your name with no minimum charge suits small and large holdings alike, but tiers are set in US dollars, card fees are not published and orders cannot be cancelled.

Storage, Insurance and Ownership

Indigo says stored assets are “held in the account holder’s name” and “fully segregated” at Le Freeport, a bonded warehouse in a free trade zone. It says allocated metals are fully insured under its vault operator’s policy, with investment precious metals covered by an all-risk Lloyd’s of London policy. It says storage clients are insulated from its own financial, credit or insolvency risk. The page does not describe an audit schedule; ask about one. Our guide to storing gold safely explains these terms.

Paying and Selling Back

Paying. Its terms list bank transfer, electronic funds transfer, cheques in SGD, USD or EUR, and Singapore dollar cash, which needs prior notice and may be limited. Card fees may apply but are not published. Refunds and rejected third-party payments can carry a S$50 processing fee.

Cancelling. Once a price is fixed, Indigo says it cannot offer cancellation, and an attempt to cancel may be treated as a default with charges.

Selling back. Indigo says you “may… always sell purchased products back” at any time, at live buy-back prices linked to world metal prices. Vault clients can sell online; walk-in sellers have their metal checked for quality and purity first. The page gives no payout timing. See how to sell gold in Singapore.

Worked Example: S$10,000 of Gold Stored for a Year

Our own numbers. $10,000 is well under US$100,000, so the 0.37% tier applies:

  • Storage: 0.37% of $10,000 is $37 a year, billed about $9.25 a quarter.
  • No minimum charge, so a smaller holding pays proportionally less: $5,000 costs about $18.50 a year.

Compare that with dealers that set a monthly minimum, such as GoldSilver Central, where the minimum dominates at this size. The gold investment return calculator shows what yearly storage does over ten years.

Drawbacks and Who It Does Not Suit

  • No cancellation once a price is fixed.
  • Card fees not published, and cash needs prior arrangement.
  • Tiers set in US dollars, so the tier you fall into can shift with the exchange rate.
  • No audit schedule stated on the storage page.

It does not suit someone who wants to pay by card or who may change their mind after ordering. Alternatives include Silver Bullion, BullionStar and the bank route in our UOB Gold Savings Account review.

What To Do Next

  • Check the Ministry of Law dealer list on the day you buy.
  • Ask Indigo for its card fees, GST treatment of storage and audit arrangements in writing.
  • Read our checklist on how to choose a gold dealer.
  • Do your own due diligence. This review is general information, not a recommendation.
