Unlocking Golden Opportunities: Purchase SJC Gold Bars with Ease through the Bank App

Vietcombank, the Joint Stock Commercial Bank for Foreign Trade of Vietnam, has announced that starting from August 27, 2024, it will introduce a new feature for purchasing SJC gold bars through its VCB Digibank mobile banking app.

With this update, individual Vietnamese customers who are VCB Digibank users can now buy SJC gold bars with just a few simple steps:

Buyers can select the maximum quantity, location, and a convenient time slot for gold bar pickup at the counter. They will then review and update their personal information, which is pre-filled on the transaction screen.

The next step involves making the payment for the gold directly through the VCB Digibank app, after which they will receive an electronic invoice at the registered email address associated with their VCB Digibank account.

Customers will then receive a confirmation message with specific details about the time and location for gold bar pickup via OTT/email, as registered with VCB Digibank.

Vietcombank notes that the mobile app gold purchase feature is available to individual Vietnamese citizens who are VCB Digibank users and have an active VND payment account opened with the bank.

The schedule for booking and making payments for gold purchases through the VCB Digibank app is from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM on weekdays.

From today onwards, Vietcombank will discontinue its SJC gold bar purchase scheduling service on its website and over-the-counter gold purchase payment transactions.

As of now, Vietcombank is the only bank to offer SJC gold bar sales through a mobile application.

The three other state-owned commercial banks, BIDV, VietinBank, and Agribank, continue to facilitate SJC gold bar purchases through their websites, with transactions and pickups taking place at the bank counters. Customers also have the option to place orders for SJC gold bars directly through the SJC company’s website.
