Store Gold, Silver & Goldbacks with Alpine Gold
Professionally vault and manage eligible precious metals through an Alpine Gold precious-metals account while retaining access to your physical holdings.
What Is an Alpine Gold Account?
Alpine Gold provides precious-metals accounts that allow customers to acquire, professionally vault, manage, exchange, transfer, or request physical withdrawal of eligible precious-metal holdings.
These accounts were previously commonly referred to as UPMA accounts. Alpine Gold now identifies them as Alpine Gold accounts to more clearly reflect the organization responsible for account management, customer service, and vaulting arrangements.
A Major Member Benefit
$0 Buy/Sell Spread on Qualifying Exchanges
One of the most distinctive benefits of an Alpine Gold account is the ability to exchange qualifying vaulted precious metals without losing part of their value to a traditional dealer buy/sell spread.
Simple Example
If you have $100 worth of qualifying vaulted silver and want to exchange it for gold, the full $100 value can be applied toward qualifying gold rather than losing part of that value to a traditional dealer spread.
Traditional precious-metals transactions often include a difference between the dealer’s buying price and selling price. That difference is known as the spread. Over repeated exchanges, those spreads can significantly reduce the amount of metal value that remains invested.
The $0 spread benefit applies only to qualifying metals and transactions under Alpine Gold’s current program terms and limits. Transactions outside those requirements may be subject to spreads, fees, or other charges. Review Alpine Gold’s current terms before making an exchange.

Understanding the Name Change
What About UPMA?
Many customers may recognize these services through the United Precious Metals Association, or UPMA. Alpine Gold is transitioning the customer-facing account services to the Alpine Gold name.
UPMA is moving toward a role focused on precious-metals industry standards, accreditation, transparency, and related verification functions, while Alpine Gold manages the customer account experience.
Review Current Fees & Terms
Vaulting fees, account fees, transaction limits, payment-processing charges, withdrawal costs, shipping, insurance, spreads on non-qualifying transactions, and other terms may vary by account type and service. Review Alpine Gold’s current account terms and fee information before funding or using an account.
