GoldBod windows · Bank of Ghana rate · live international spot
Gold price today — Ghana and the world.
Which GoldBod pricing window is open right now and how long is left in it; the approved
purchase price per pound; the Bank of Ghana daily interbank rate; and the live LBMA and international spot
price per ounce, gram and kilo. Every figure carries its source — because a price you cannot trace is only a
rumour with a decimal point.

On 1 July 2026 GoldBod moved to a two-window pricing regime tied to the LBMA AM and PM
fixes, with mandatory real-time booking. A booking submitted outside its window, or during a suspension,
is rejected and rolls into the next pricing window. Source: GoldBod Compliance Directorate press release,
Commencement of LBMA Pricing and Booking.
If you are buying against these windows
Booking is now real time. So is the risk of getting the lot wrong.
Under the July 2026 regime a purchase must be booked inside its pricing window, and a booking made
outside it is rejected. That compresses the moment of truth: weight and purity have to be settled at the
counter, while the window is still open — not reconciled afterwards at the refinery.
The 13 July notice to Self-Financing Aggregators is blunter still. GoldBod's role is
"strictly regulatory and administrative." It guarantees no payment, no supply and no performance,
and every SFA indemnifies GoldBod against default, non-payment, fraud, insolvency and commercial loss
arising from its offtaker relationships. The commercial risk sits entirely with you.
A regime that hands you the risk also hands you the burden of proof. That is the whole
reason this company exists: an instrument at your counter that measures purity, mass and origin, seals the
reading in hardware with a timestamp, and anchors it publicly — so what you booked is
evidenced rather than asserted, to your offtaker, your bank and your regulator alike.
We do not book. Bookings are made by licensed buyers in GoldBod's own system, inside the
window. Nothing here submits, reserves or queues a booking.
We are not GoldBod, and not affiliated with it. The figures above are reproduced from
GoldBod's public publications and always link back to source.
We never buy, sell or hold gold, and take no position in any metal shown on this page.
Offtaker onboarding is GoldBod's process — their KYC, their due diligence, their approval.
We have no role in it and cannot expedite it.
What we do is narrower and older than any of that: make the measurement
impossible to dispute afterwards.

What this is and is not. These are international reference prices, published here for
convenience and clearly sourced. They are not a quotation, not an offer to buy or sell, and not a
central bank reference rate. A physical seller does not receive spot — they receive spot less a discount for
assay uncertainty, refining, transport, financing and counterparty risk. The size of that discount is the
problem this company exists to solve.
The spread between this price and the price you are actually offered is what unverified metal costs.
EcoVent Africa builds the instrument that measures purity, mass and origin at the moment of purchase,
seals the reading in hardware, and anchors it where any counterparty, lender or regulator can check it
without trusting the party that produced it. Ghana is our proving ground — Africa's largest producer, and
the jurisdiction where the rules already changed.
From 1 July 2026 the Ghana Gold Board prices purchases against the LBMA AM and PM fixes in
two daily windows. AM runs 09:30 to 14:20; PM runs 14:30 to 09:20 the next day, all times GMT.
Trading and booking are suspended 14:21–14:29 and 09:21–09:29 for the changeover. Bookings must be made in
real time inside the applicable window — anything submitted outside it, or during a suspension, is rejected
and rolls into the next pricing window. The clock at the top of this page tells you which window you are in
and how long is left.
When can I book a purchase with GoldBod?
AM bookings run 09:30–14:20. PM bookings run 14:30–20:30 and again
06:00–09:20 the following morning. Between 20:30 and 06:00 the PM price still applies but the booking
desk is shut — the clock above shows "booking closed" during those hours so you are not caught out.
What is the Bank of Ghana rate today, and why does it differ from GoldBod's rate?
Three different rates do three different jobs. The Bank of Ghana interbank rate is the
official reference. The rate GoldBod applies converts the LBMA dollar price into a cedi purchase
price and is published alongside that price. The market rate in the converter lower down this page is
a commercial rate for general reference. Using one where another belongs is a common and expensive
mistake.
What is the gold price per gram today?
Divide the spot price per troy ounce by 31.1035. The board above does it continuously and
also shows the price per kilogram and per tola. Remember that a per-gram figure assumes 999.9 fine metal —
use the converter to apply a real carat purity.
What is the LBMA Gold Price, and how is it different from spot?
The LBMA Gold Price is the global benchmark administered by the London Bullion Market
Association, set twice each London business day at 10:30 and 15:00 — the AM and PM fixes. Most contracts
settle against it. Spot moves continuously between fixes, so the two rarely match exactly.
Why is the price I am offered lower than spot?
Because spot prices good-delivery metal of known purity in a known location. Anything else
carries risk the buyer must price: is the assay right, where did it come from, who handled it, and what
will the refinery actually return? Each of those uncertainties becomes a deduction. The less a buyer can
verify, the wider the discount.
What is the gold price in Ghana cedis?
Select GHS in the converter. The rate used is a market rate from a public source and is
indicative only — it is not a Bank of Ghana reference rate, and it should not be used for settlement.
For official rates, consult the Bank of Ghana directly.
How often does this page update?
Spot prices refresh every 60 seconds while the page is open, and the LBMA fixings update
when the association publishes them. Every row shows its own timestamp, so you can see exactly how fresh
each figure is rather than trusting the page as a whole.
Who publishes this page?
EcoVent Africa Limited, a technology company registered in Ghana working with counterparties
internationally. We build verification infrastructure for physical gold. We do not buy, sell or hold gold,
and we take no position in any metal shown here.
