How we make money
Our only revenue is the paid community membership: first month free, then $19.99 a month. No affiliate links, no ads, no paid signals. Every tool and article is free.

Every site that writes about trading should say plainly how it is paid. Here is our answer.
One source of revenue
XAUUSD Global earns money in exactly one way: the paid community membership. The first month is free, after which membership costs $19.99 per month. Members get the live-market sessions, mentor rooms, chart reviews and discussion floors described on the membership page. That subscription funds the writing, the data feeds behind the free tools, hosting and the time of the people who run the community.
What is free
Everything on this website is free and will stay free: the Gold Trading Academy lessons, every blog article, the daily news digests, the economic calendar, the gold market hours tool, the position size, pip and margin calculators, the volatility, seasonality, COT, CPI, NFP and real-yield trackers, the embeddable widgets and the starter kit PDF. You do not need an account to use any of it, and we do not hide the useful half of an article behind a membership prompt.
What we do not do
- No affiliate links. We do not earn a commission when you open a broker or prop-firm account, so we have no reason to steer you towards one. Our country guides tell you how to check a regulator’s register, not which broker to pick.
- No advertising. There are no ad networks, banners or sponsored placements on the site. The TradingView price charts and calendar are free embeds that pay us nothing.
- No paid signals. We do not sell buy and sell calls, and we do not take payment to promote anyone who does. Trade ideas shared inside the community come with their full reasoning and are educational, not instructions.
- No sponsored content. Nobody pays to appear in an article, lesson or news digest, and no third party reviews our content before publication.
- No selling your data. Email addresses collected for the newsletter and the membership waitlist are used only to send you what you signed up for. See the privacy policy.
- No managed money. We do not manage accounts, take deposits or offer investment services of any kind.
Why this matters for what you read
Because the membership is the only product, the only way the site succeeds is if the free content is genuinely useful enough that some readers want to learn alongside us live. That gives us a reason to be careful and honest in every article; it gives us no reason to inflate expectations, promote leverage or recommend a particular platform. If a piece of content ever appears to do those things, it is a mistake and we would like to know about it: email info@xauusdglobal.com.
If this changes
If we ever add another source of revenue, this page will be updated first, with the date shown at the top, and the change will be described plainly. As of the date above, the membership is the only one.
