As someone who has spent years carefully evaluating different trading platforms, I always look for clear and reliable information on minimum deposit requirements before opening any live account. With BullionVault, I found the situation to be somewhat ambiguous. According to the available information, BullionVault does not explicitly specify any minimum deposit amount for new accounts. In practice, this means that account holders are not forced to commit to a set starting sum when opening an account. However, my experience tells me this does not necessarily make the entry process risk-free or simple. Although there’s no imposed minimum, actual trading and especially holding precious metals require sufficient funding to cover not just the purchase of the metals themselves, but also ongoing storage fees and transaction costs. For instance, storage charges and commissions are always present, regardless of initial deposit size. Given BullionVault’s unregulated status and complex fee structure, I find it prudent to approach with heightened caution. Before funding any live account, I would carefully analyze the cost of purchasing even a small amount of metal, account for ongoing storage, and confirm that I fully understand the total outlay required to maintain an open position safely and efficiently. Even with no formal minimum, starting with an amount that makes sense for your investment goals—and allows for fee coverage—is essential in order to avoid surprises or operational issues later.
