Can I swap PAXG without KYC?

Yes. SyntheticSwap supports PAXG swaps with no registration or identity verification.

Can I redeem PAXG for physical gold?

Yes. PAXG holders can redeem tokens for physical gold through Paxos, though minimum redemption amounts apply and the process requires identity verification with Paxos directly.

How does PAXG compare to gold ETFs?

Unlike gold ETFs, PAXG trades 24/7, can be transferred globally instantly, is divisible to 18 decimal places, and can be used in DeFi as collateral — while gold ETFs are traditional financial instruments.

What is the fee structure for PAXG?

Paxos charges a 0.02% creation/destruction fee and a 0.03% annual custody fee deducted monthly in PAXG, making it one of the lowest-cost ways to hold gold.

About PAX Gold

PAX Gold (PAXG) is a digital asset where each token represents one troy ounce of physical gold stored in Brink's vaults in London. Issued by Paxos Trust Company (a regulated US financial institution), PAXG gives investors the benefits of owning gold — inflation hedge, store of value — with the portability and divisibility of cryptocurrency. PAXG is 1:1 redeemable for physical gold through Paxos. Owners can fractionalize gold ownership (buy 0.01 oz), transfer value globally in seconds, and use gold as collateral in DeFi without taking physical delivery. PAXG is a regulated, audited product with monthly attestations of gold reserves.

Before you swap PAXG: what to check

•Receiving address format: 0x… (42 characters) — an ordinary Ethereum wallet address.
•Network: Ethereum (ERC-20). PAXG exists on one network here; make sure your wallet sends on it.
•Deposit confirmations: 100 on Ethereum (ERC-20) (block time ~12 seconds). The rate is locked when the deposit confirms, not when you broadcast.
•Limits: minimum and maximum are shown in the form for each pair and change with fees and liquidity.
•Moving it later: sending PAXG onward from Ethereum (ERC-20) needs a little ETH in the same wallet.
•Tracking: the status page shows each stage; deposits and payouts can be checked on etherscan.io.

If something looks wrong

The deposit is not showing up

Check the transaction in your wallet or on etherscan.io: it must be on Ethereum (ERC-20). Until it has 100 confirmations the status page shows it as pending — this is normal.

I sent a different amount than quoted

Amounts inside the limits are recalculated at the current floating rate. Amounts below the minimum cannot be processed and are returned to the refund address you gave (minus the network fee).

I sent on the wrong network

Funds sent on a network other than Ethereum (ERC-20) do not reach the deposit address automatically. Contact support with the transaction hash and the swap ID from the status page.

The payout has not arrived

Once the deposit is confirmed, the payout is broadcast within minutes. Check the destination address on its explorer; if the receiving service needs a memo or tag that was not provided, ask them to credit it manually with the transaction hash.

The rate changed while I waited

Rates are floating and locked at deposit confirmation. Slow confirmation (low fee, congested network) is the usual reason for a difference from the first estimate.
