If you haven't received confirmation of your order within one hour of completing it, please proceed as follows:

  • Check the spam folder of your email programme (automated e-mails are automatically treated as spam by some programmes).
  • If no confirmation of your order can be found in the spam folder and you have ordered by credit card, please check whether your card has been charged.
  • If you can't find an email in the spam folder or a charge on your credit card, please e-mail our sales department, stating your customer number, order date and – if possible – the approximate time of your order. We will then attempt to solve the problem based on our records.

We can offer you the chance to purchase investment products in gold, silver and platinum around the clock, seven days a week.

This is possible because instead of buying at the Fixing price (gold, or silver and platinum fixing prices), which is set twice a day, we buy the respective precious metals at the constantly changing Spot price and offer them to you at this price in real time. The price offered online is fixed in the order overview and held for 15 minutes - this applies to 5 minutes in the order overview page (this follows the shopping cart in the checkout) and the remaining period in the online payment processing. During this period you can make a decision about our offer. If you do not want to make a decision yet, you will be offered a new spot price at a later time.

At the Münze Österreich AG shop at Heumarkt 1, you can also purchase the Vienna Philharmonic in gold, silver and platinum, as well as gold bars, at the spot price. You will be informed of the current price at the cash desk.

The prices of our collector products are not affected.

Spot price: The Gold Spot price, a ‘live’ gold market price, is an average price made up of the following factors:

  • the price at which the last gold trade was made;
  • the lowest price at which the troy ounce of gold (31.1 grams) is currently available on the market (ask price); and
  • the price that the highest bidder is willing to pay (bid price).

The Spot price is calculated around the clock by supply and demand, based on trading in Tokyo, New York and London.

You actively enter the quantity in Basket/Checkout. It is not possible to change a quantity after the order has been placed. Due to the high level of demand, the maximum order quantity per registered customer may be limited for individual collector coins. Thank you for your understanding.

Once we've entered your order, you receive the advance payment invoice by e-mail or post within 24 hours (working days).

Orders received on weekends or public holidays are processed the next business day.

The advance payment invoice includes our account details and the amount of the invoice as well as the payment reference.

Once the amount shown on the advance payment invoice has been remitted and we've received it, you receive confirmation of its receipt by e-mail. Once we have consigned the products to the logistics partners, you receive an e-mail from us (with the tracking number for tracking the shipment).

Log in to your user account. You will find all of your orders under "User account/Order Overview".
