What we solved

Challenge: Most retail gold-trading platforms use leveraged CFDs and interest-based mechanisms that are Haram for Muslim investors. Existing Halal options are rare, illiquid, and have high minimums. Solution: SGT built a Shariah-compliant spot-gold platform with segregated physical custody, Mudarabah/Musharakah profit-sharing pools, no leverage, no riba, transparent fee structure, and 24/7 instant withdrawals — backed by a real-time gold price feed and an internal Shariah board for compliance audits.
