Why is my gold purchase showing as "Pending"? | A pending status usually means your payment is undergoing final verification with the bank network or our gold vault partner. Your transaction status will be automatically updated within 48 hours. If the purchase is successful, your gold locker will update instantly. If it fails, your money is completely safe and a full refund will be credited to your source bank account within 5 to 7 working days. L1: Digital Gold, L2: Digital Gold Purchase Pending, L3: User Contacted Within TAT | |
Can I cancel my gold purchase? | Once a digital gold purchase is successful, it cannot be canceled or reversed. This is because physical gold is instantly bought at live market rates and securely transferred to an insured vault under your name. However, if you wish to liquidate your investment, you can easily sell your gold through the app once the standard 72 hours security lock-in period is complete, and the funds will be credited directly to your bank account. L1: Digital Gold, L2: Digital Gold Queries, L3: How to Use and Limits? | |
Why is the price changing every time I open the app? | Gold is a live-market commodity, and its price fluctuates globally based on real-time market dynamics. To protect you from sudden rate spikes while you are entering your details, we provide a 5-minute price lock timer at checkout. This features "freezes" your rate for exactly 5 minutes. If your payment isn't completed within this window, the price will automatically refresh to reflect the latest international market rate, ensuring you always get a fair and transparent price. L1: Digital Gold, L2: Digital Gold Queries, L3: How to Use and Limits? | |
The payment was successful, but the gold is not showing in my portfolio. | I understand it can be concerning if your gold balance doesn't update immediately. If your payment was successful, your transaction might be undergoing final confirmation between the bank network and our vault partner. Please allow up to 48 hours for your gold locker to reflect the update. If the transaction ultimately fails, your money is completely safe and a full refund will be automatically credited to your source bank account within 5 to 7 working days.

Selling Queries | How do I sell my digital gold? | Selling your digital gold is quick and easy! You can instantly liquidate your holdings back into your bank account by following these simple steps: 1. Open your super.money app and go to the Rewards tab. 2. Select 'Gold' to open your current holdings dashboard. 3. Tap the 'Sell Gold' button. 4. Enter the value you wish to liquidate in Rupees (₹) and confirm. Please note: To keep your account secure, your gold must be held for at least 72 hours following its purchase date before it becomes eligible to sell. L1: Digital Gold, L2: Digital Gold Queries, L3: How to Use and Limits? |
Why is my "Sell" button disabled? | If your 'Sell' button is greyed out or disabled, it is typically due to one of two standard platform rules: • The 72 hours Security Lock-In Period: For account protection and settlement safety, gold cannot be sold within 72 hours of its purchase date. • Minimum Transaction Value: Please check the value you are trying to sell. Our platform requires a minimum transaction threshold of ₹10 to initiate a sale back to your bank account. If 72 hours have already passed since your last purchase and you are trying to sell an amount higher than ₹10, please contact super.money support so we can verify your account status. L1: Digital Gold, L2: Digital Gold Queries, L3: How to Use and Limits? | |
I sold my gold, but the money hasn't reached my bank account. | I understand it is concerning when your funds aren't visible right away. Following a successful gold sale, the money is transferred directly to your linked source bank account. While most transactions clear instantly, bank network processing or temporary downtime can occasionally cause delays. Please check your bank statement after 48 hours. If the funds are still missing after this window, feel free to contact super.money support with your transaction ID so we can track it down for you. L1: Digital Gold, L2: Digital Gold Selling Issues, L3: Sold Gold Money Not Received in Bank | |
Why is the "Sell" price lower than the "Buy" price? | The difference between the buy and sell price is known as a buy-sell spread. When you purchase gold, your buy price includes non-recoverable external costs mandated by the government, such as a 3% Goods and Services Tax (GST), alongside secure vaulting and 100% insurance charges. Furthermore, our live gold prices are tied to the real-time international market, which fluctuates continuously. You can check the live rates anytime directly on your app dashboard before finalizing your transaction. L1: Digital Gold, L2: Digital Gold Queries, L3: How to Use and Limits? | |
Can I sell only a portion of my gold or do I have to sell everything? | You have full control over your savings! You are not required to sell your entire gold holding at once. You can easily choose to sell a specific value in Rupees (₹), as long as the portion you are selling meets our minimum transaction requirement of ₹10. Any remaining gold will continue to stay 100% secure in your digital locker until you are ready to sell it later. There is a minimum lock in period of 72 hours. L1: Digital Gold, L2: Digital Gold Queries, L3: How to Use and Limits? | |
I tried selling my gold but it failed. | I understand it is frustrating when a transaction doesn't go through as expected. A gold sale can occasionally fail due to a temporary glitch with the banking network or a brief connection drop with our vault partner. When this happens, your gold balance is completely safe and will remain securely stored in your digital locker. Please wait a few moments, ensure you have a stable internet connection, and try the sale again. If the issue persists, please reach out to super.money support with your transaction details. L1: Digital Gold, L2: Digital Gold Selling Issues, L3: Selling Gold Failed | |
I tried selling my gold, but it is in processing. When will it be successful? | A processing status means your bank network or our gold vault partner is completing final security and clearance checks. While most sales settle very quickly, it can occasionally take up to 7 working days for the funds to clear during bank banking delays. Rest assured, your investment is completely secure. Please monitor your linked bank account for the credit, and if the status does not update after 7 working days, reach out to super.money support with your transaction details.
