The UAE has taken another step in integrating technology with precious metals as Emirates Gold and Malaysia’s Public Gold unveiled a fintech-enabled Gold ATM at the Dubai Precious Metals Conference 2025.
The initiative aims to improve access to gold and silver bullion through a smart, secure platform that links digital payments with physical collection, reflecting the UAE’s broader move towards innovation in commodities, as per news reports.
The unveiling took place during the 13th edition of the Dubai Precious Metals Conference at Atlantis, The Palm.
The initiative highlights ongoing efforts to strengthen the UAE’s position as a global centre for precious metals trade and technology-driven market solutions.
Emirates Gold and Public Gold formalised their partnership in May 2025, combining refinery expertise with a fintech-driven distribution system.
Emirates Gold manages physical bullion production, replenishment, and customer support, while Public Gold provides the technology platform that powers the ATM network.
As per news reports, the first unit will be installed at Almas Tower, with more locations planned across the UAE.
Key features include:
Future updates are expected to include online order pickups, cryptocurrency conversion, and redemption of tokenised gold backed by secure vaults.
Between 35 and 40 ATMs are scheduled for deployment in 2026, forming what is expected to be the country’s largest network of gold-dispensing machines.
The rollout aims to increase accessibility for both new and experienced investors while maintaining quality standards associated with Emirates Gold products.
The machines offer a curated range of precious metal bars suitable for investors, collectors, and individuals seeking commemorative items. The focus remains on enabling seamless purchasing experiences while ensuring security and product authenticity.
