The gold trade trust gap

Scams, delays, missing paperwork, and unverifiable parties keep legitimate buyers and licensed suppliers apart.

Scams & impersonation

Fake mandates and middlemen waste time and risk capital.

Slow, opaque processes

Weeks disappear to checks no one can see or verify.

Paperwork & compliance gaps

Certificates, mine licensing, and export rules are hard to validate across borders.

Sahara closes the trust gap

Three pillars make cross‑border gold deals predictable.

Verified Parties

Suppliers and buyers are identity‑checked, licensed, and audit‑reviewed. Mines and certificates of origin are validated before deals go live.

Escrow Protection

Funds sit in escrow until inspection and paperwork pass. Both sides see milestones and triggers for release.

Transparent Tracking

Amazon‑style tracking for gold: WhatsApp updates, photo/video proof at checkpoints, and independent inspection records.

Benefits for Buyers

Built for refineries, traders and jewelers in Dubai and the UAE.

  • Safety first: escrow‑protected payments and verified suppliers.

  • Live tracking: milestone updates and inspection photos you can share with compliance.
