SAME GOLD.
PREMIUM EXPERIENCE.
Augmont is our gold provider. OroPocket wraps the same gold in Bitcoin cashback, gamification, MMTC-PAMP custody, and a 4.8-rated app. Factory outlet vs premium store.
WHY PEOPLE LOOK BEYOND AUGMONT
Great gold infrastructure. Not-so-great consumer experience.
Augmont's B2C spread is ~3–5% — wider than fintech apps using the same gold. B2B partners get better rates than direct consumers. OroPocket offers competitive spreads plus up to 5% Bitcoin cashback.
Augmont's 250+ B2B partnerships are the real business. The consumer app is a functional afterthought — ~3.8 rating, outdated UX, crashes. OroPocket's 4.8-rated app is built for investors first.
Augmont is NOT LBMA accredited. MMTC-PAMP (OroPocket's primary custodian) IS India's only LBMA-accredited refinery. On OroPocket, you get LBMA-quality gold that Augmont's direct platform can't offer.
Augmont has zero consumer engagement. No Bitcoin cashback, no streaks, no milestones. OroPocket makes every gold purchase rewarding with BTC cashback and deep gamification.

WHAT OROPOCKET ADDS TO AUGMONT GOLD
MMTC-PAMP CUSTODY — LBMA ACCREDITED
Augmont alone isn't LBMA accredited. OroPocket adds MMTC-PAMP — India's only LBMA-accredited refinery, a Government of India JV. Dual custody gives you the strongest gold trust foundation in India.
BITCOIN CASHBACK UP TO 5%
Buy the same Augmont gold through OroPocket and get up to 5% Bitcoin cashback. A second asset class building automatically. Augmont's direct platform offers zero cashback, zero rewards.
GAMIFICATION THAT BUILDS HABITS
Augmont's B2B DNA means zero consumer engagement. OroPocket's streaks, milestones, and spin-to-win create genuine investing habits. Same gold, but one platform makes investing a daily reward.
50+ FREE TOOLS & CALCULATORS
Augmont has minimal consumer tools. OroPocket provides 50+ free gold/silver tax calculators, SIP planners, rate trackers, and educational tools. Informed investors invest more and invest smarter.
WHERE AUGMONT STILL HAS MERIT
250+ B2B partners — battle-tested at scale. Google Pay, PhonePe, Amazon Pay, Bajaj Finserv, and 250+ more trust Augmont with their users' gold. That's not marketing — it's proven infrastructure.
Vertically integrated refinery. Augmont has its own refinery — they refine, store, and sell. No middleman in their supply chain. The gold quality is reliable and well-established.
Gold jewelry e-commerce is unique. Buy gold jewelry, convert digital gold to jewelry at partner jewellers, corporate gifting for businesses — Augmont's physical product ecosystem is broader than any fintech app.
We chose them as a provider for a reason. Augmont is one of OroPocket's gold custodians because their infrastructure is reliable. We're not replacing Augmont — we're adding MMTC-PAMP, Bitcoin cashback, and a modern experience on top.
Augmont makes great gold infrastructure. OroPocket makes great gold investing experiences. Together — plus MMTC-PAMP — you get the complete package.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
I was buying gold on Augmont because they're 'the source.' Then I found OroPocket uses Augmont AND MMTC-PAMP — better custody, Bitcoin cashback, and an app that doesn't crash. The upgrade was obvious.
Augmont's spread was eating my returns — 3-4% gone before I even started. OroPocket's tighter spread plus Bitcoin cashback means I'm actually growing wealth faster on the same gold.
OroPocket's streaks changed everything. On Augmont I'd invest randomly — maybe once a month. Now I invest daily because the gamification keeps me engaged. Same gold, totally different habits.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Same logic as buying from a wholesaler vs a premium retailer. The product is the same, but OroPocket adds MMTC-PAMP custody (LBMA), Bitcoin cashback, gamification, tools, tighter spreads, and a modern app. You get more value per rupee.

No. OroPocket focuses on gold as an investment — SIP, Bitcoin cashback, gamification, tools. Augmont's jewelry e-commerce section is better for shopping. For investing, OroPocket is better. Many investors use Augmont for jewelry and OroPocket for SIP.
Yes. Use Augmont for jewelry shopping and corporate gifting. Use OroPocket for daily SIP with Bitcoin cashback, gamification, and MMTC-PAMP custody. Each platform for what it does best.
