Exchange your gold for cash using the Gold ATM
Last February something new arrived in Auckland - The Gold ATM. Kiwi couple T. Jordan and his partner L. Jade embarked on the project that resulted in a machine that buys gold from the public by utilising some of the best-known technologies in the market.
The machine is smart enough to identify the type of gold by its purity with its 100% self-calibrating scale and provide an offer to you in a fair pricing manner. You have the choice - accept the offer and get paid directly to your bank account, or reject the offer and take your gold.
The process is done in 3 simple steps:
1. Introduce yourself (driver’s licence or valid ID is required).
2. Introduce your gold (place your gold on the scanner on the outside of the machine).
3. Finalise your transaction (accept the price and have the funds transferred to your account or reject the offer and take your gold away with you).
The Gold ATM system keeps records of all transactions including photos and fingerprints to provide to police to assist with any inquiries they may have.
Come and try it for yourself at one of our convenient locations.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.4% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
-
80.3% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
19.7% No. This would be impossible in practice.
