The advantage of starting a gold SIP on PhonePe is the convenience of unified payments interface (UPI).
Flipkart-owned PhonePe on Wednesday announced the launch of a systematic investment plan (SIP) to invest in gold. Users can now invest in 24K gold, the metal in its highest purity, for a specific amount every month and accumulate their asset.
These investments will be insured in bank-grade lockers maintained by PhonePe’s partners MMTC-PAMP and SafeGold. Investors will have complete control of their gold and can sell it at any time to get a direct credit to their bank accounts. Should they choose to redeem this investment in the form of coins and bars, it will be delivered to their doorsteps, the company said in a statement.
