Thndr Launches Digital Gold Investment Product Starting From 0.001 Gram
Egyptian investment platform Thndr has launched Thndr Gold, a new digital product that allows users to buy, sell, and track 24-karat gold directly through its mobile application, starting from as little as 0.001 gram.
The launch marks one of the first major products introduced under Thndr Asset Management following the company’s recent expansion. It also supports Thndr’s strategy to broaden access to high-quality investment opportunities through a simpler and more transparent digital experience.
Gold remains one of the most popular investment assets among Egyptians, but traditional purchases have often involved challenges including limited price transparency, storage and security concerns, and the need to buy at least one full gram.
Thndr Gold seeks to address these barriers through a digital service built around transparent pricing, low fees, investment flexibility, secure storage, and compliance with Islamic Sharia principles.
Users can invest in 24-karat gold and monitor the value of their holdings directly through the Thndr application. Prices are updated throughout the day in line with officially announced gold rates, giving investors a clear view of both their holdings and their current market value.
The product allows customers to begin investing from just 0.001 gram, equivalent to less than EGP 7 at current prices, making gold investment accessible to users with a wide range of budgets.
Thndr charges a 1% fee on purchases and a further 1% on sales, with no additional or hidden charges. The company said this makes the product one of the lowest-cost gold investment options available in the Egyptian market.
Users can also buy and sell gold several times a week through the app without visiting a physical branch or retail outlet.
The underlying gold is securely stored by Egypt Cash, a company affiliated with the Central Bank of Egypt, while the product is supervised by a specialist Sharia committee to ensure compliance with Islamic finance principles.
Ahmed Hammouda, Co-Founder and CEO of Thndr, said the new product reflects the company’s commitment to delivering accessible investment services at the lowest possible cost.
“Our goal is to provide the best investment experience at the lowest possible cost,” Hammouda said. “Thndr Gold reflects that commitment, and it is the same standard we will continue to apply as we introduce new asset classes to the platform.”
The launch strengthens Thndr’s position as it seeks to become the primary investment account for Egyptians by expanding beyond traditional securities and offering a wider range of digitally accessible asset classes.
