What is PAX Gold?
PAX Gold, traded as PAXG, is a token issued by Paxos Trust Company, which launched it in September 2019. According to Paxos, each token represents one fine troy ounce of physical gold, held in London vaults by the custodian Brink's, and holders own rights to specific numbered bars that they can redeem for the metal or sell back to the issuer.
The token is built on Ethereum as an ERC-20 standard, which lets it move between wallets in minutes and trade at any hour. Because a token can be divided, a holder can own a fraction of an ounce rather than a whole bar, without arranging their own vaulting, insurance or delivery.
In effect, PAXG links a traditional metal to a blockchain record: the gold sits in a vault while ownership is tracked on Ethereum. Paxos publishes attestations of the gold it holds against the tokens in circulation.
On Digital Surge you can buy PAX Gold in AUD, with the live PAXG price shown before you confirm. Nothing on this page is a recommendation to buy.

FAQ
Buying PAX Gold: FAQs
Can I buy a small amount of PAX Gold?
Yes. Since a PAXG token can be split, a fraction of an ounce is on the table rather than a full one. Type the AUD you want to spend and Digital Surge works out the PAXG, so nothing forces a larger first buy.
How quickly can I buy PAXG?
Generally within minutes. The only one-off jobs are verifying your identity and funding the account for the first time, and a PayID deposit of AUD reaches most people in under a minute. From there a PAXG order confirms in seconds at the live AUD price.
Can I sell or swap PAX Gold on Digital Surge?
Yes. When it suits, turn PAXG back into Australian dollars, or move straight into a different coin without leaving the Digital Surge app. Money from a sale arrives in your AUD balance and is yours for withdrawal to a linked Australian bank account.
What backs PAX Gold?
According to its issuer, Paxos, each PAXG token represents one fine troy ounce of physical gold held in London vaults by the custodian Brink's. Paxos states that holders can redeem tokens for the underlying gold or sell them back, and it publishes attestations of the gold it holds.
How is PAX Gold different from holding physical gold?
PAX Gold is an ERC-20 token on Ethereum, so you can own a fraction of an ounce and trade it at any hour without arranging your own vaulting, insurance or delivery. Digital Surge lists PAXG in AUD, priced on screen before you confirm.
