About the Gold Price API

A gold rate API for apps and stores that show the live gold price. Requests retrieve real-time spot gold valuations denominated in USD across ounce, gram, and kilogram weights, accompanied by 24-hour change values and price direction. Paid tiers can query prices across 172 currency codes, retrieve 24-hour high and low ranges, and include hourly price snapshots spanning the preceding day. The last 30 daily closes are stored too: paid plans get the 7- and 30-day change and the 30-day high, low, average and volatility, and daily=true returns the closes themselves.

What people use it for

Jewelry Store Pricing: E-commerce jewelers adjust retail bullion and custom jewelry checkout prices dynamically based on live gold rates per gram.
Portfolio Asset Valuation: Wealth tracking dashboards recalculate physical precious metal portfolio balances by multiplying recorded gold ounces against incoming spot rates.
Pawn Shop Appraisals: When customers bring in scrap scrap gold, collateral loan software pulls the latest kilogram and gram benchmarks to calculate fair lending values.
Trading Alert Triggers: Market watch bots monitor 24-hour change direction and absolute price shifts to push notifications when bullion moves significantly.

Without writing code

Live gold price on DigestYourFinances charts gold by the ounce, gram and karat.

The Precious Metals widget from WidgetSpark keeps the prices on your desktop.

Questions.

Common questions about the Gold Price API.

Read the docs →

How many gold price checks does the Free plan cover?

The Free plan includes 200 monthly credits, which covers 100 gold price requests at 2 credits per call. If you need higher volume, the Starter plan covers up to 100,000 requests each month, which works out to about $0.30 per 1,000 calls. Unused credits reset at the end of each billing cycle.

Do I get 24-hour highs, lows, and custom currencies on the Free plan?

No. The 24-hour high, low, percentage change, and custom currency parameters are premium features reserved for paid plans. Free plan calls return spot prices in the default currency. Subscribing to any paid plan unlocks all 172 supported currencies alongside 24-hour high and low metrics.

Which weight units does the API calculate prices for?

Every response automatically returns gold prices across three standard units: troy ounces, grams, and kilograms. You do not need to make separate calls or calculate conversions between ounces and metric weights yourself.

Can I get historical price movements or just the current spot price?

Yes. The last 30 daily closes are stored, so paid plans get the 7- and 30-day change, the 30-day high, low, average and volatility, and daily=true returns each day's closing price per ounce, converted at that day's exchange rate. Setting hourly=true adds hourly snapshots for the trailing 24 hours. History older than 30 days is not available.

Can I display these gold prices inside a commercial trading app or store?

Yes, commercial use is allowed on any paid plan. You can integrate the prices into an e-commerce checkout, investment dashboard, or business application. You may not resell or redistribute the raw price feed as a standalone data product.

Can I get the gold price per gram in EUR from Python?

Yes. Every response includes the price per gram, ounce and kilogram as JSON from a plain GET request, so any Python HTTP client works. The Free plan returns prices in USD; on paid plans you pass currency=EUR (or another supported currency code) to get the gold price per gram in euros directly.

Request parameters — GET /v1/goldprice

Sent in the query string. Premium parameters are accepted on every plan but only take effect on plans that include them. Anything not listed here is dropped rather than passed through.

Optional

Parameter	Type	Example	Description
`currency`OptionalPremium	string	`USD`	The currency to get the price in default USD
`hourly`OptionalPremium	boolean	`true`	Include hourly price data for the past 24 hours default false
`daily`OptionalPremium	boolean	`true`	Include the daily closing price per ounce for the last 30 days default false

Example request

1
2

curl "https://api.apiverve.com/v1/goldprice?currency=USD&hourly=true&daily=true" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Authentication

Send your key in the x-api-key header. That is the only auth step — no token exchange, and no per-endpoint scope to configure.

Header	When	Value
`x-api-key`Required	Every request	Your API key. Header names are case-insensitive, so `X-API-Key` is the same header.
`Authorization`Alternate	Instead of the above	`Bearer <key>` — for clients that only expose bearer auth. Resolves to the same account and the same billing.

401 is the only auth verdict

A 401 means the key is missing, invalid or expired. A 403 means the key is valid but not permitted here — blocked by a key restriction or an IP allow-list. Running out of credits is a 429.

Response — GET /v1/goldprice

Every APIVerve endpoint returns the same three top-level keys, so one response handler covers your whole integration: status, error and data. Only data changes shape.

Response headers

Every response carries your balance, so your own code always knows where it stands without polling anything. All four are exposed to browsers through CORS.

Header	What it carries
`x-api-remaining-credits`	Credits left in the current cycle
`x-api-credits-used`	Credits spent in the current cycle
`x-api-max-credits`	The allowance for the cycle
`x-api-version`	Version of the endpoint that answered

Errors

Read the HTTP status first, then error for the specific reason. The body names the parameter that has to change.

Status	Meaning	What to do
`400`	Input was rejected	Read `error`; it names the parameter that has to change.
`401`	Key missing or invalid	Check the header name and the key value.
`403`	Key valid, but not permitted here	A key restriction or an IP allow-list — never a bad key.
`429`	Rate limited, or out of credits	Read `error` to tell them apart, then back off or top up.

What a call costs — 2 credits per call

Credits are shared across every APIVerve API — one balance, one key, one bill. Failed requests never count against it, so a rejected input costs nothing.

Plan	Per month	Credits	Gold Price calls	Per 1,000 calls
