Suggest you procure standard smd capacitors with 100 % tin terminations.
If you are trying to use inventory that was procured for another reason,
you will probably have problems in soldering them. I don't know how much
gold is plated on the terminations, but there is always concern for weak
gold tin intermetallics.

Dear Technetters!
Could you please give me information about the best soldering method and
materials for a ceramic capacitor with gold terminations on FR4?
Thanks,
Gaby
