4 Treasury Gold Facts: How it Works, Printing Costs, to Hassle-Free Resale

Jakarta, Pintu News – Gold Treasury is increasingly recognized in Indonesia as a digital gold investment alternative that offers the flexibility of transactions like crypto assets and cryptocurrencies, but still based on physical gold.

This model attracts attention because it allows people to buy gold starting from a small amount, store it digitally, and then print or resell it as needed. Here’s a full explanation of what Treasury Gold is, how it differs from Pegadaian, printing costs, and how to resell it.

1. What is Treasury Gold?

Emas Treasury is a digital gold buying and storage service backed by real physical gold, where gold ownership is recorded electronically through the Treasury platform. Users can purchase gold in small gram units without having to directly hold physical gold, making it more practical and efficient than conventional methods.

The concept is often likened to gold-based crypto assets because they are both digital and can be monitored in real-time, although they are fundamentally different from cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH). Gold Treasuries still represent physical gold holdings, not crypto tokens, so their value follows the world gold price.

2. Difference between Treasury and Pawnshop Gold

The main difference between Emas Treasury and Pegadaian lies in their form of ownership and service objectives. Emas Treasury focuses on flexible digital gold investments, while Pegadaian is widely known as a provider of physical gold as well as pawn-based financing services.

At Treasury, gold can be stored digitally with no physical storage fees and only printed when the balance is sufficient. In contrast, Pegadaian generally involves physical gold from the start of the transaction, both for purchases and pawning, so its investment function is mixed with the financing function.

3. How much does Treasury Gold Print Cost?

The cost of printing Gold Treasury depends on the weight of the gold and the type of print the user chooses. In general, the printing fee for small grams is relatively higher in percentage terms compared to large grams as it includes production, certificate, insurance and packaging costs.

In addition to printing costs, users also need to factor in shipping and insurance costs. Unlike crypto assets that can be moved between wallets with almost no physical costs, printing digital gold to physical form does have a reasonable additional cost component as it involves manufacturing and logistics.

4. How to Sell Treasury Gold

Selling Treasury Gold is simple as long as the gold is still in digital form. Users simply log in to the Treasury platform, select the sell gold feature, determine the number of grams they want to sell, and then select the account where the funds will be disbursed.

Proceeds from the sale of digital gold will be transferred to bank accounts within a few business days. It is important to note, however, that gold that has been printed into physical form cannot be resold through Treasury and must be sold to gold shops or other parties outside of the platform, unlike cryptocurrency assets which generally remain tradable on digital exchanges at any time.

Digital Gold, Crypto, and Indonesian Investor Preferences

The presence of Treasury Gold reflects the trend of investment digitization in Indonesia, in line with the increasing public interest in crypto and cryptocurrency. Although structurally different, digital gold and crypto both offer ease of access, price transparency, and transaction flexibility.

For investors who avoid the high volatility of cryptocurrencies, Treasury Gold is an alternative option for intrinsic value-based digital asset diversification. Meanwhile, for active investors, the combination of digital gold and crypto can be used as a medium to long-term risk management strategy.

The good news is that Pintu now provides gold tokenization services through assets such as Tether Gold (XAUT) and PAX Gold (PAXG). Through this gold tokenization, gold buying and selling transactions become easier, faster, and more flexible, without having to store physical gold directly.

Conclusion

Emas Treasury offers a modern way of investing in gold through a digital platform with the support of physical gold as the underlying asset. Compared to Pegadaian, Treasury emphasizes investment flexibility over financing functions. Despite printing costs and limited physical gold sales, Emas Treasury remains relevant as a bridge between traditional investment and the digital asset ecosystem in Indonesia.
