The Gold Price API gives you the real-time gold futures price in USD, straight from the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME).

One endpoint. No parameters. Hit /price and get the current gold price in clean JSON.

Built for developers who need reliable gold price data without the complexity of bloated financial APIs.

❓ Why use it?

1. Generous Free Plan

5,000 queries per month. Free. No credit card required.

That's 5,000 gold price lookups every month at zero cost. Build your fintech app, trading bot, or portfolio tracker without spending a dime upfront.

$75 gets you 1M queries/month
$150 gets you 10M queries/month
