Platinum rate in Kenya — questions

What is the platinum rate in Kenya today?

The platinum rate in Kenya today is KSh4,580 per gram for 14K, and KSh7,852 per gram for 24K. These are live figures converted from international spot at the current KES exchange rate.

What is the price of 1 gram of gold in Kenya?

One gram of 24K platinum costs KSh7,852 in Kenya, and 22K costs KSh7,197 per gram. 18K works out at KSh5,889.

Why is 22K cheaper than 24K in Kenya?

22K gold is 91.67% pure — 22 parts gold to 24 — so it contains less gold by weight than 24K, which is 99.9% pure. That is why 22K is KSh654.32 less per gram here. The alloy makes it harder, which is why jewellery is usually 22K or below.

How often does this rate update?

The spot price refreshes continuously through the trading day and this page reflects the latest reading, last confirmed 3 minutes ago. Exchange rates refresh alongside it.

How this price is worked out. Gold trades in one global market, quoted in US dollars per troy ounce. The Kenya price above is that spot price converted into KES at the current exchange rate, then scaled to the weight and purity shown — no estimate is involved at any step. What it does not include is the jeweller's making charge, wastage, or local taxes, which vary shop to shop. Use it as the metal value, not as a shop quote. Historical rows are converted at today's exchange rate, so they show how the metal moved rather than how the KES moved.
