Terms, as documented by the issuer
- Holder rights
- Per Paxos, each PAXG token is backed by one fine troy ounce of London Good Delivery gold held in custody by Paxos Trust Company, N.A., and PAXG is redeemable for physical gold, unallocated Loco London gold or USD at prevailing market prices through Paxos. Paxos also offers a lookup tool that maps a wallet address to the serial number, weight and vault of the allocated bars.
- Redemption
- Redeemable through Paxos for physical gold, unallocated Loco London gold or USD at prevailing market prices (issuer statement). A Paxos account and its onboarding are required for direct redemption; terms are on the issuer's site.
- Eligibility
- Direct issuance and redemption require a Paxos account; the page we checked does not enumerate jurisdiction restrictions. Not provided beyond that.
- Transfer restrictions
- Not provided
- Fees
- Paxos states it charges no storage fees for PAXG. Creation, redemption and any on-chain transfer fee settings are not provided on the page we checked.

Nothing here is inferred from the token name. "Not provided" means the issuer pages we checked did not state it; it does not mean the right or restriction is absent.
