SUMMARY

  • Goldwise, a Cardiff-based startup in the UK, has raised over £500K in funding to support its growth.

The round included £250K from the Wales Angel Co-Fund, managed by Angels Invest Wales, and £255K from a group of business angels led by SV Rangan.

The company will use the funding to launch its platform in the UK market and focus on product rollout, customer acquisition, and performance over the next 12–15 months.

Founded by Gareth Tucker and Jatin Patel, Goldwise offers a platform that allows users to trade fractional amounts of physical precious metals like gold, silver, platinum, and palladium.

It enables trading of LBMA-approved bullion starting from as little as £5, with features such as 24/7 access, conditional orders, and real-time portfolio tracking.

Gareth Tucker, Founder at Goldwise, said: Investing in most asset classes has become simple, digital and accessible - but physical precious metals have been left behind. Customers still face outdated buying experiences, marked-up pricing and limited trading functionality. Goldwise was built to change that, making precious metals investing easy, secure and efficient for all.

Goldwise has been built from the ground up as trading infrastructure rather than e-commerce. This funding allows us to launch into the UK market with confidence, establish strong customer acquisition foundations and demonstrate the robustness of our model ahead of our next phase of expansion.
