**Update February 2017**
Our most recent research into Goldworth Financial led us to believe that this company has now gone out of business. This is based on the following 3 factors:
1. The company website would not open, so it appears to have been taken down:
2. The company corporate video has been ‘removed by the user’ according to YouTube:
3. The Better Business Bureau are reporting that ‘according to information in BBB files this company is no longer in business’. Furthermore Goldworth Financial is no longer being shown as Accredited at the BBB (whereas previously it was accredited with an A+ rating):

Goldworth Financial Review:
Background
Goldworth Financial Inc have been in business since 1999 and they are based in Woodland Hills, California.

It also means that their clients can acquire metals from overseas markets without the need for foreign bank accounts.
The company offers insured storage at independent depositories, and as well as arranging delivery to all U.S locations they are also able to deliver to certain overseas destinations.
Goldworth are registered with IPMI (The International Precious Metals Institute), NACA (North American Collectibles Association, CCE (Certified Coin Exchange) and ICTA (Industry Council of Tangible Assets.
Goldworth Financial’s Website
The company’s website is well laid out and provides on the Home page current market and economic news items, precious metals spot prices and exchange rates of the major currencies.
Also on the Home page you will find a link to information about precious metals IRAs. Click there and as well as the general information you will find a 3 Step process for setting up an Account with the company’s preferred custodian.
Navigation around the site is quite straightforward and pretty much everything can be accessed via the Home page. Overall this website is very informative and user friendly. It is effective in its simplicity. If you require still more information you can sign up for the company’s newsletter, provided of course that you feel comfortable providing your email address.
Products
Gold, silver and platinum products are on offer. To make the choices easier for you there are articles to be found on Goldworth Financial’s website about how to choose your metals and whether you should opt for bars or coins. Available for purchase from the company are rare coins, foreign coins, bullion coins, modern proof coins and bullion bars. Information about each individual type is available by clicking on the appropriate website link.

Reputation and Ratings
Goldworth Financial Better Business Bureau
Goldworth Financial has been an accredited business with the BBB since October 2009 and has been awarded an A+ rating there which is the highest possible (on a scale of A+ to F).
There have been no closed complaints recorded there about the company over the past 3 years. No customer reviews have been recorded there either, incidentally which means that overall there is very little to report (other than the excellent track record).
The Better Business Bureau mention that they are not aware of any government actions relating to Goldworth Financial’s business affairs and that they have nothing to report regarding the company’s advertising practices.
Other additional information refers to the facts that the company has been in business since 11/05/1999 and that it has 21 employees.
Goldworth Financial Business Consumer Alliance
Goldworth Financial Inc has been a BCA member since October 2009 and since that time they have achieved a triple A rating, which is the highest possible.
The BCA Complaint Resolution Index (CRI) shows that there have been no complaints received about the company and the Complaint Closing Statistics over the past 3 years is zero.
Similarly to the BBB, the Business Consumer Alliance record that they know of no government actions against Goldworth Financial, nor do they have any information relating to advertising history.
Goldworth Financial Trustlink
Although Goldworth are listed on the Trustlink site there has not been a single review posted about the company there yet.
Summary
Goldworth Financial have been in business a long time, they have a good website, a good range of products and they are obviously keeping their customers happy since there are no complaints recorded against them at either the Better Business Bureau or the Business Consumer Alliance. It’s a shame that there are virtually no customer reviews to be found anywhere but it has to be assumed that if there were any they would in the main be positive.
For precious metals IRAs they offer scaled fees as opposed to flat ones. You can read about the implications here.
Conclusion
Goldworth Financial have a good reputation and are worthy of consideration for your precious metals investments. They are not our Top Recommended company however. You can see why we came to that conclusion by comparing them side by side here.
