Unallocated Metals
Few institutions offer unallocated metals — but Battle Bank does because it’s the most cost-effective way to own gold, silver, platinum and palladium. With our Unallocated Metals Account, you can purchase metals and store them through one of our secure partners. There are no monthly account or storage fees, and you can even borrow against your holdings — giving you liquidity without having to sell your metals.
Unallocated Metals Benefits
Your metals are securely stored in a fully audited, professionally managed facility—trusted by institutions and built for long-term protection. With rigorous inventory controls and independent oversight, you’ll have confidence that your assets are safe and accounted for.
You’ll only pay a 0.75% fee on the wholesale price available to Battle Bank. No monthly account fees, no storage charges — just straightforward, low-cost access to gold, silver, platinum and palladium.
Opening an Unallocated Metals Account is simple. Start with a $5,000 initial trade, then invest at your own pace — no minimums, no pressure. As your holdings grow, you can even borrow against them with a precious metals loan.
Want delivery of your unallocated metals? If so, easily convert your holdings to an Allocated Metals Account and choose delivery or secure storage. We make it flexible to fit your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between an unallocated and allocated metals account?
Unallocated accounts, although buying gold or silver, you don't hold physical ownership of the metal. Instead, the gold remains the possession of Battle Bank, on behalf of unallocated metals clients. One of the primary benefits of unallocated accounts, they have no monthly account or storage fees.
Additionally, unallocated accounts can be converted to an allocated account with specific coins and bars and delivered to the address on your Battle account (fabrication and delivery or storage fees apply if converted).
Allocated accounts refer to physical metal that is specifically allocated to you specifically. When you purchase allocated precious metals, you are buying that metal in your name, distinct from other metal of Battle Bank. That means you have legal ownership of specific coins or bars, which can be stored securely on your behalf (fees apply) or delivered to the address on your Battle account (delivery fees apply).
What types of precious metals are available in an Unallocated Metals Account?
You can buy and sell gold and silver in unallocated accounts. We do not provide platinum or palladium as options in unallocated accounts.
Does Battle Bank actually own the metal that its clients have in their unallocated accounts?
Yes. Battle Bank has 100% of the unallocated metals our clients have purchased stored at a Brink's storage facility.
Can I take delivery of my unallocated metals?
We can't deliver gold or silver in your unallocated metals account.
However, one of the benefits to an unallocated account with Battle Bank is that you can convert your unallocated holdings to an allocated metals account and choose to have the metal fabricated and delivered the account address on file. (Fabrication and delivery fees apply)
What's the advantages of buying unallocated precious metals?
Unallocated Metals Accounts usually appeal to those who want to buy physical metal but don't have an interest in taking delivery or paying the higher costs generally associated with Allocated Metals Accounts. Keep in mind you can convert from an Unallocated Metals Account to an Allocated Metals Account at any time.
Can I put unallocated precious metals in an IRA with Battle Bank?
No. Unallocated metals are not considered IRA eligible.
