# Gold Calculator (حاسبة الذهب)

> Gold Calculator (Arabic: حاسبة الذهب) is a Saudi-first website and mobile app that shows live gold prices in Saudi Riyal (SAR) for every karat (24K, 22K, 21K, 18K) and helps buyers and sellers decide whether a jewelry shop's quote is fair before they pay. Unlike generic "gold price today" apps, it breaks a shop quote into gold value, making charges, shop profit, and 15% VAT, then returns a clear verdict: fair, expensive, or a good deal. It also calculates gold Zakat (nisab ~85g of 24K, 2.5%), tracks a gold collection, and sends price alerts — with no interrupting ads on core flows.

## Key facts
