How to Buy Tether Gold (XAUt)Every exchange we track that lists XAUt, what the buy costs, and what it costs to take XAUt with you afterwards.
42 of the exchanges we track list XAUt, and 34 of those accept fiat, so you can buy it without holding crypto first. The cheapest place to place the order is Bitfinex at $0.00 on a $1,000 market buy. It is also the cheapest once the withdrawal fee is added — $0.00 to buy $1,000 of XAUt and move it to your own wallet. XAUt moves over 4 networks (Ethereum (ERC20), BNB Smart Chain (BEP20), Tether(XAU) on BNB Chain and others) — pick the same one on the exchange withdrawal screen and in your wallet. 5 of them have XAUt withdrawals paused right now — you can buy there, but you cannot take the coin with you until it reopens.
All-in cost is the trading fee on a $1,000 market buy plus the cheapest fee that exchange charges to withdraw XAUt. It is the number the exchange’s own “how to buy” page never shows you, and it reorders the table more often than not. The coins column is how many assets each exchange lists in total, from our own sync — not the figure CoinMarketCap prints.

Showing 1–42 of 42 exchanges listing XAUt
On 42 exchanges we track: Binance, OKX, Bitget, Gate, Bitfinex and 37 more. The table above has each one with its trading fee, the payment methods it takes and what it charges to withdraw XAUt.
Bitfinex, at $0.00 to buy $1,000 of XAUt and withdraw it — $0.00 in trading fee plus $0.00 to move it out over Tether(XAU) on BNB Chain. If you are leaving the coin on the exchange, only the first half applies and a different venue may win. Paying by card adds the card processor's charge on top of both, typically 1.8–4%.
Indirectly, yes. 21 of the exchanges listing XAUt accept a card, but the card almost always buys a major asset — USDT, USDC, BTC — which you then swap for XAUt on the same exchange. That means two fees: the card charge, then the trading fee in the table.
Every exchange charges one, as a flat amount of XAUt per network rather than a percentage. We do not have a priced figure for all of the venues listing XAUt yet — the XAUt withdrawal fee page has whatever each exchange publishes.
It is a custody choice, not a safety switch. While the coin sits there the exchange holds the keys: convenient, recoverable if you lose your password, and dependent on the exchange staying solvent and keeping withdrawals open. Moving it to a wallet you control removes that dependency and costs one withdrawal fee. For a trading balance, staying put is reasonable; for a long hold, most people move.
XAUt is issued on 4 networks and they are not interchangeable — XAUt sent over Ethereum (ERC20) will not arrive at an address on BNB Smart Chain (BEP20). Ethereum (ERC20) is the one most exchanges use (36 of them). Withdrawal fees differ per network too, sometimes by an order of magnitude, so the cheapest network is worth checking as well as the cheapest exchange.
Exchange coverage for XAUt comes from each exchange’s own deposit and withdrawal endpoints (last sync 2026-08-29 00:53 UTC); trading fees are the published base tier, no volume discount applied (verified 2026-08-28). Exchanges we have a referral arrangement with appear first and are tagged as such — it changes no number in any row. Nothing here is investment advice; see our methodology.
