Costco Gold Bars Canada: Price, Limits and Alternatives

Key takeaways

As of October 23, 2026, costco.ca shows no gold bars or bullion coins, only gold jewellery.
Costco Canada did sell 1 oz PAMP Suisse gold bars in 2023, members only, two per member every seven days (Global News).
Costco US (costco.com) lists 1 oz gold bars and coins: one transaction per membership, up to 4 units every 24 hours, no returns. These are US rules.
In Canada, you can buy gold bars from banks such as TD and RBC, from the Royal Canadian Mint and from dealers. Compare the price over the gold price, not just the sticker.

Does Costco Canada sell gold bars in 2026?

Not right now, as far as we can see. On October 23, 2026, we searched costco.ca for “gold bar”, “gold coin”, “1 oz gold”, “maple leaf gold” and “bullion”. We also turned on the option to show out-of-stock items. The results were gold jewellery (necklaces, bracelets, pendants), gift cards and grocery items. There were no gold bars and no gold bullion coins.

Costco adds and removes items without notice, so this can change. If you want to check yourself:

Sign in to costco.ca, because some items are shown to members only.
Search “gold bar” and “gold coin”, then tick Show Out of Stock Items in the filters.
Look at the product page for the purchase limit, the return rules and whether delivery is available in your province.

If you see a gold bar on a site that is not costco.ca, or on a social media ad that says “Costco”, be careful. Buy only from the real costco.ca site.

What did Costco Canada sell before?

Costco Canada has sold gold bars in the past. In September 2023, Global News reported that costco.ca was selling the 1 oz PAMP Suisse Lady Fortuna Veriscan 24K gold bar for $2,679.99. The article said:

It was for Costco members only.
Members could buy two bars every seven days.
It was not sold to customers in Manitoba, and the territories paid extra for delivery.
Costco’s then chief financial officer said the bars were typically gone within a few hours of going on the site.

The same article found that TD sold the same bar for slightly less that week, and both were above the open-market gold price. That price is from 2023 and tells you nothing about today. Gold prices can go down as well as up. Past prices don’t predict future prices.

What does Costco sell in the US, and what are the limits?

This section is about Costco US (costco.com). These are not Canadian rules. We include them because many search results and videos about “Costco gold” are about the US.

As of October 2026, costco.com lists 1 oz gold bars from PAMP Suisse (for example the Lady Fortuna Veriscan bar, 24K, .9999 fine) and the 2026 1 oz Canada Maple Leaf gold coin from the Royal Canadian Mint. The US product pages say:

Rule on costco.com (US)	What the page says
Purchase limit	1 transaction per membership, with a maximum of 4 units per 24 hours
Same address	Precious metals orders to one address are limited to 8 units per day
Returns	Not eligible to be returned or refunded, and no price adjustments
Shipping	Insured FedEx shipping included; someone must be home to sign
Delivery	Not available to Alaska, Nevada or Puerto Rico

We did not find a way to order these US listings for delivery to a Canadian address. If you buy gold in the US and bring it home, you must declare it to the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). See bringing gold into Canada.

Is Costco gold a good deal?

The only fair way to judge any gold bar is the premium: how much you pay above the value of the gold inside it.

For example, if gold were $5,000 an ounce and a 1 oz bar cost $5,150, the premium would be $150, or 3%. You need the gold price at the same moment as the bar price to work this out. The live rate on this page gives you the gold price in Canadian dollars.

With Costco, add these to your sums:

Membership. In October 2026, costco.ca lists a $65 membership and a $130 Executive membership, plus sales tax.
No returns. The US gold listings cannot be returned. Expect the same if Costco Canada brings gold back, and check the product page.
Selling later. We found no Costco buyback for gold. You would sell to a bank, dealer or refiner, and they pay less than the selling price. See how to sell gold in Canada.

Where else can you buy gold bars in Canada?

If Costco Canada has no stock, these are the main options. Compare the premium, not the sticker price.

Where	What we found (October 2026)
TD Precious Metals	Bars from 1 gram to 1 kg, online or in branch. On October 23, 2026, a 1 oz TD bar was about 2.2% above the gold price TD showed on its site when paid from a TD account, and about 5.3% above by card. See TD gold bars.
RBC	Royal Canadian Mint 1 oz and kilo bars and Maple Leaf coins, ordered through a branch. RBC buys back only metal it sold you, with proof of purchase.
Other banks	The Royal Canadian Mint (October 2024) says BMO, CIBC, RBC and TD offer physical bullion; Scotiabank stopped in early 2021.
Royal Canadian Mint and dealers	Wide range of bars and coins. Premiums and buyback terms vary by dealer.
Gold ETFs	No bar to store, low yearly fees, bought through a brokerage account. See gold ETFs in Canada.

Small amounts are also possible. RemitBee Gold, from our sponsor, is coming in early 2027 and will let you buy pure 24K gold from $10 with a 0.5% fee; you can join the waitlist at gold.remitbee.com.

Before you buy, use the gold value calculator to see what the gold in a bar is worth, and check the gold price per ounce in Canada at the same time.
