April 2026: Cents2 has launched what is believed to be Australia’s first vaulted gold and silver round-ups feature, enabling users to convert spare change from everyday transactions into holdings of investment-grade precious metals.
The new capability allows Cents2 users to accumulate gold and silver alongside existing round-up options such as superannuation and charities. Powered by Rush’s embedded bullion infrastructure, gold and silver functionality is integrated into the Cents2 platform, with investment-grade bullion held in secure vault facilities and supported by custody, insurance and independent audit arrangements.
“Round-ups work because they’re effortless,” said Jason Gram, Co-Founder of Cents2. “This gives our users the ability to build holdings in globally recognised assets as part of their everyday financial activity.”
Gold is recognised under international banking frameworks as a reserve asset, while silver plays a growing role in electrification and advanced manufacturing.
Internationally, automated gold micro-savings platforms have scaled to tens of millions of users and attracted significant venture funding, reflecting growing demand for embedded, asset-based savings.
The partnership reflects a broader shift toward embedding real assets into mainstream financial platforms, where they can be held, transferred and used within everyday financial activity.
“Vaulted precious metals are moving into the financial system itself,” said Jodi Stanton, CEO of Rush. “Rush turns those assets from something you can hold into something that works for you.”
