How it works
Add your metal holdings
Record each bullion purchase: metal type, quantity (oz or g), cost, purchase date, and any premiums or fees.

Current valuations update with market prices. Your cost base is stored for future CGT events.
Report CGT on disposal
When you sell, the CGT event flows into your tax report with the correct discount for your jurisdiction.

Frequently asked questions
- Can I track physical bullion and gold ETFs separately?
- Yes. Record physical bullion as a manual precious metals holding. Record gold ETFs (PMGOLD, QAU, GLD) as separate listed share holdings with their own tracking.
- What about the personal use asset exemption?
- The exemption applies only to genuine personal-use assets. Investment-purpose bullion is a CGT asset with full CGT treatment on disposal.
- Are there GST considerations?
- Investment-grade bullion (99.5% pure gold, 99.9% silver, 99% platinum) is GST-free in Australia. Lower-purity products may attract GST and should be included in your cost base.
- How is the US collectibles rate handled?
- US investors face up to 28% long-term capital gains on precious metals under IRC §408(m). TrackMyShares notes this classification; file through your US tax agent for the actual rate.
- Does TrackMyShares price my physical bullion?
- Spot prices are tracked. Retail premiums vary by dealer; your cost base captures what you actually paid.
