Live validation steps
GoldCube kiosks use AssureTec ID technology to electronically verify that an ID is legitimate. AssureTec’s high-resolution scanners can spot the telltale signs of a counterfeit ID invisible to the naked eye. After the AssureTec ID electronically verifies the government issued ID for authenticity by examining the ID for holograms, watermarks, or other specific identification methods, the customer is permitted to proceed.
- While the ID is being verified for authenticity, the machine scans and captures photos of the ID. Using the kiosk’s built-in webcams, the remote attendant compares the photo ID with the user’s face in real-time to confirm their identity.
- The remote attendant also verifies that the ID hasn’t expired and that the customer is over 18 years of age.
Ability for police to open kiosk
Law enforcement personnel who need access to a device inside the kiosk can simply call GoldCube and we can open the door at any time. Once an officer’s ID and law enforcement credentials have been validated, a Gold Cube specialist will open the side door and will secure items you are looking for.
Return of reported stolen items
Gold Cube will respond quickly and diligently to any request from law enforcement to research and/or return reported stolen jewelry items that may have been collected by the kiosk.
Any reported stolen item will be returned to the victim with no subpoena or search warrant required and at no cost.
30 day inventory hold
GoldCube holds all inventories collected for a minimum of 30 days. We will hold inventories for longer if required. Once the hold period has passed, we ship the items to our headquarters in Indialantic, Florida.
Do not buy list
Gold Cube works with law enforcement to implement a “do not buy” list, which bans individuals from utilizing a GoldCube® kiosk. Additionally, if an individual is identified by law enforcement as having sold a stolen item at a Gold Cube kiosk, we electronically “ban” that individual from conducting further transactions at all Gold Cube kiosks worldwide.
No warrants or subpoenas
We do not require a search warrant or subpoena, and we will provide any item(s) and associated records to law enforcement in our possession upon request.
If any officer has an investigative interest in a gold or silver item that is currently deposited in one of our kiosks, they may simply visit the kiosk, call us and present their credentials to the kiosk camera. We will immediately dispatch a Gold Cube specialist to open the kiosk to allow the officer to recover any item.
Jewelry flagging
If you call or email our Regulatory Affairs Department, we can check any piece of gold or silver jewelry in our system to determine if a specific piece was received by Gold Cube.
If the piece of jewelry in question has not been received by the Gold Cube, we can create an automated flag which will alert us and enable us to alert you if the item is at a Gold Cube kiosk.
Second hand dealer laws
The GoldCube offers an open book policy to all law enforcement that can use the information we have to assist in an investigation.
We can report in any method preferred, including mail, fax, email, BWI’s Rapid, NEWPRS or other reporting mechanisms.
We’re happy to do the research for you. Just call your state’s Regulatory Affairs representative and they’ll get started.

- We’ll report in whatever method preferred
- Easy access to photos, serial numbers, and other information about sellers
