Software Solutions for Gold Jewellery Brands
Gold jewellery is sold by weight and purity, so the price moves with the rate and each piece carries its own weights and hallmark record. Brands and showrooms selling gold online need that detail on the listing, in the price and on the invoice, with the shop and site drawing on one stock.
Price gold from the day’s rate and never sell the same piece twice.
A gold chain and a gold coin are priced differently even at the same weight, because one carries a making charge and the other usually does not. The listing has to know which is which.
Showrooms listing gold online
A family showroom puts its tagged pieces online and keeps selling at the counter from the same stock.
Gold-led online brands
A brand sells lightweight and everyday gold through its site and ships from a small central stock.
The workflow for gold jewellery.
- 1
Tag becomes a listing
A tagged piece is published with its net weight, karat and photograph taken from the showroom record.
- 2
Morning rate applied
The day’s rate is entered once, and every online price follows it until the next change.
- 3
Basket price held briefly
A price shown at checkout is held for a stated period, so a customer is not charged a different amount from the one displayed.
- 4
Dispatch against the tag
The piece is weighed against its tag before packing, and any difference is recorded before it ships.
- 5
Old gold set against a purchase
Where the seller accepts old gold, its value is worked out at the day’s rate and set against the new piece.
The challenges, and what they cost.
What is specific to this trade.
These are requirements we would confirm in discovery. They describe what the solution may need to handle. They are not features that already exist.
- Karat-wise rates and a rule for how long a displayed price is honoured
- Net weight separated from stone weight on each piece
- A way to value and accept old gold against an online order
What we would build for gold jewellery.
Chosen from the commerce capabilities this business needs, not a list of everything.
Who works in the system, and what each can do.
What it would connect to.
An integration is confirmed only after its API, access and scope are checked. A connection that updates on a schedule is described as scheduled, not real-time.
- Showroom stock and billing, such as the existing jewellery retail product
- A payment gateway that supports the amounts involved
- A carrier able to insure and track high-value parcels
How the work runs, and what we need from you.
What you provide
- Your rate sheet and how you revise it
- A sample of tagged stock with weights
- The exchange rules you apply to old gold
Rate rules first
We settle how rates, making charge and tax combine, since every price depends on it.
Pilot on plain gold
The first range is plain gold pieces, which show quickly whether the link to stock holds.
What you receive.
- Karat-wise price rules
- Tag-linked listing structure
- Held-price checkout flow
- Training for the online order desk
How progress is judged.
Measures are agreed against your own baseline. We do not promise a result in advance.
- Orders cancelled because a piece had already sold
- Price complaints at checkout
Selling at home and abroad.
Buyers abroad may ask for the purity in their own scale and prices in their own currency. Duty and shipping rules for gold differ by country and are confirmed with your carrier and adviser.
The wider requirements for jewellery are on the Jewellery page.

Questions about gold jewellery e-commerce.
Does the site change prices all day as the market moves?
Only as often as you decide. Prices follow the rate you enter, and a faster feed would be scoped separately after its source and terms are checked.
Can a buyer see the hallmark of the piece they receive?
Where the hallmark reference is recorded against the tag, it can be shown beside the listing. The system does not issue or verify it.
Can we accept old gold online?
A buyer can declare old gold, which is then assessed on receipt. Its value is set at that day’s rate, not at checkout.
