The Ultimate Guide to Bullion Standard Pro Membership

Investing in precious metals has always been a trusted strategy for building wealth and preserving financial security. But for too long, retail and non-institutional investors have been held back by inflated dealer markups, wide buy and sell pricing spreads, hidden fees, and limited access to truly competitive pricing. That’s all changed with the introduction of Bullion Standard Pro, our revolutionary new monthly membership designed to give individual investors, collectors, and precious metals consumers the same wholesale pricing advantages that dealers, retailers and institutional investors enjoy. Until now, the retail and wholesale pricing structures in the precious metals industry have existed as two separate and distinct markets. The rate at which the speed of information travels continues to rapidly accelerate, making Bullion Standard Pro a reality.

Whether you're a seasoned investor or exploring precious metals for the first time, Pro Membership offers unparalleled access to smarter, more strategic investing. In this guide, we’ll explore everything you need to know about Bullion Standard Pro Membership, how it works, and why it’s transforming the way people invest in gold, silver, platinum group metals, numismatic products, and other precious metals.

What is Bullion Standard Pro Membership?

Bullion Standard PRO Membership is a groundbreaking innovation in the precious metals industry, providing individual investors with unprecedented access to near-spot wholesale pricing, both buying and selling, on our more than 3,000 products. This includes gold, silver, platinum, palladium, rhodium, numismatic collectibles, and more. For just $25 per month, members can bypass traditional dealer markups and enjoy the same wholesale pricing once reserved exclusively for large-scale buyers, dealers, and institutional investors.

However, Pro Membership is more than just access to real market-maker pricing, it’s a comprehensive solution for investors. Members gain access to exclusive resources, including expert market insights, private events, and a community of like-minded investors who share a passion for wealth building.

"Our goal with Pro Membership is to empower investors by removing the traditional barriers to entry," says Kyle Horn, President and CEO of Bullion Standard. "Bullion Standard has always been at the forefront of innovation, and we've truly revolutionized the way investors and consumers of physical precious metals products buy and sell. We’ve created a platform that puts transparency and value at the forefront, ensuring our members can build their wealth smarter and faster. Our proprietary technology powers Pro Member pricing by aggregating live bid/ask data from wholesale market-makers across the precious metals industry, including mints, distributors, and authorized purchasers of United States Mint bullion products. This advanced system provides our members with real-time access to the depth, liquidity, and transparency of the physical precious metals market, just like the stock market. We believe it's a game changer."


Why Choose Pro Membership?

When it comes to investing in physical precious metals, every dollar saved is a dollar earned. Bullion Standard Pro Membership is designed to maximize those savings, whether buying or selling, making it a standout choice for anyone looking to invest smarter. Here’s why our membership is changing the game:


Say Goodbye to Retail Markups

Traditional precious metals dealers and retailers often add significant markups to their prices, making it difficult for investors to maximize their returns. With Bullion Standard Pro Membership, these costly markups are a thing of the past. Members gain access to wholesale pricing, near-spot prices, without any hidden fees or inflated spreads.

For example:

  • As of January 2025, purchasing 50 Silver American Eagles at the average online advertised retail rate costs around $1,900.
  • With Pro Membership, the same purchase costs just $1,600.
  • That’s a savings of over $300 on a single transaction!

These savings have a meaningful impact, particularly for investors making frequent or substantial purchases. Access to the same prices paid by dealers and retailers gives Pro Members a distinct edge in growing their portfolios with greater efficiency. With the industry average retail transaction size fluctuating between $2,000 and $4,000, the savings from just one Pro Member order more than covers the cost of membership, delivering immediate value and setting you on the path to smarter investing.


A Membership Like No Other

Unlike traditional precious metals investment options burdened with complex pricing structures and hidden fees, Bullion Standard Pro Membership offers a refreshingly straightforward approach. Starting at just $25 per month, members gain access to a suite of exclusive benefits, including near-spot wholesale pricing, expert insights, and a dynamic community of like-minded investors.

With Pro Membership, you’re not just buying precious metals, you’re investing in a smarter, more transparent system that prioritizes your success. Whether you’re purchasing gold bullion, silver coins, or collectible items, every step of the process is built with the investor and his or her success in mind.

Key Benefits of Pro Membership

Bullion Standard PRO Membership is designed to provide investors with unparalleled advantages in the precious metals market. From wholesale pricing to exclusive resources, here are the key benefits that make this membership program stand out.

Real Savings Examples: Wholesale Pricing without Fees

One of the standout advantages of Bullion Standard Pro Membership is the significant savings it offers when buying and selling physical bullion and precious metals products. Pro Membership unlocks the ability to buy and sell these products at market-maker, near-spot wholesale prices, eliminating egregiously high dealer markups and inflated spreads that erode your returns. Unlike traditional dealers who opaquely disguise fees and shipping costs in their pricing, Pro Membership offers complete transparency, ensuring you pay what the market dictates, and nothing more. To truly understand the value, let’s compare retail buy-and-sell spreads with the buy-and-sell spreads available to Pro Members.

Why it matters:

  • As of January 2025, traditional retailer buy and sell spreads on popular bullion products, like the Silver American Eagle, can reach up to 23.9%, and higher.
  • With Pro Membership, your buy and sell spread is reduced to just 2.1%, ensuring you get as close to market rates as possible.
  • Buying and selling physical precious metals at tight buy-and-sell spreads is crucial for maximizing value and minimizing costs, just like trading stocks on the stock market.

This transparent pricing model ensures that more of your investment goes directly into building your portfolio, not into unnecessary dealer spreads and fees. For frequent buyers or large-scale investments, these savings can add up to thousands of dollars, giving you more purchasing power and faster portfolio growth.

What could you do with these extra savings?

  • Invest in even More Precious Metals: Use yours savings to expand your portfolio with additional gold, silver, or platinum group metals purchases, increasing your holdings without additional out-of-pocket costs.
  • Save for Market Opportunities: Keep the saved funds ready to capitalize on future market dips, allowing you to buy precious metals at even more advantageous prices.
  • Enjoy Peace of Mind: Knowing you’ve secured the best possible pricing can free up resources for personal enjoyment, whether it's traveling, pursuing hobbies, or simply building financial security.

Access to 3,000+ Products

Variety is another key feature of Pro Membership. With our extensive inventory of over 3,000 products available, members can explore a diverse product catalog that includes:

  • Gold and Silver Bullion: Coins, bars, and rounds in various weights.
  • Platinum and Palladium Products: Options for diversifying your holdings with critical industrial metals.
  • Collectibles: Rare coins and limited-edition items for collectors and investors alike.

PRO Membership starts at just $25 per month, billed quarterly. This small fee unlocks access to near-spot pricing, exclusive resources, and tools designed to help you maximize your investments.

Are There Any Hidden Fees?

No. Bullion Standard Pro Membership brings complete transparency to an otherwise opaque market. There are no hidden markups, inflated spreads, or unexpected charges. What you see is exactly what you pay.

Why Do I Have to Pay for Shipping?

At Bullion Standard, we believe in complete transparency. Our pricing model separates shipping costs to give you complete control over your expenses. Unlike very low free shipping thresholds offered elsewhere, which often include hidden fees built into higher product prices, our prices reflect true wholesale bid/ask rates without any markups.

  • Flat Rate Shipping Fee: $23.97 on orders under $10,000.
  • Free Shipping: On every order $10,000 and above.

This approach ensures you’re paying only for what you truly need, without subsidizing other costs.

What types of products are available with PRO Membership?

Can Wholesale Bid/Ask Spreads Widen?

While market-maker's wholesale pricing is designed to provide stability and transparency, bid/ask spreads can widen during periods of extreme market activity. Notable examples include the COVID-19 buying frenzy of March 2020, heightened demand throughout 2022, and the bank failures of March 2023. During these times, unprecedented demand for precious metals, combined with supply chain disruptions, led to product shortages and soaring premiums in retail denomination bullion products. Dealer and retailer markups rose sharply above market rates, compounding the already elevated bid/ask spreads. This underscores the importance of being well-positioned in the market. As a Pro Member, you gain access to the tools, insights, and real-time data needed to navigate these fluctuations. Even in times of volatility, you can make informed and strategic investment decisions while maintaining access to market liquidity and bid/ask spreads.

How often are prices updated on the platform?

Prices are updated every five seconds, ensuring you always have access to the most accurate and competitive market rates.

Is there a minimum purchase requirement?

Yes, members can sell their metals back to us at our Pro Buyback price. You can ship your products to us using your own method, or we can provide a fully insured return shipping label, with the cost conveniently deducted from your order total.

How is my order shipped and insured?

All orders are securely handled and packaged under high definition recorded video for accuracy, and fully insured during shipping for your peace of mind. Depending on your order quantity and value, we may ship via USPS, FedEx, or UPS, with a varierty of shipping speeds including ground, 2-Day Air, and Next Day Air.
