When Diwali and Dhanteras are near, there is a tradition to purchase gold to bring prosperity. Some people who like convenience and security have started to buy digital gold. Digital gold lets you own gold without actually holding the gold in your hand because other firms hold the gold on your behalf but are trusted companies.
People who want to invest in digital gold can do so from firms such as MMTC-PAMP, SafeGold, and Augmont in India. This is through its online platforms, mobile wallet, banks, and broking services. This is how you can purchase digital gold from Google Pay, Tanishq, Jos Alukkas, and PC Jewellers this festive season.
